Area Of Power Generation
India’s present electricity requirement approx. 500 billion kWh, can be met by installing 2500 sq. km of solar field.
A square of 50km x 50km, or
4 smaller squares of 25km x 25km.

Conclusion
3/2/2015
Major difficulties in attaining target of 10% of electricity generated by renewables by 2010
Main contributors to this target will be :-
1) Offshore and Onshore wind farms
2) Biomass/wood, straw, etc
3) Photovoltaic
But policies like Climate Change Levy and the Renewables Obligation will help establish renewables
