Indo-China Partnership for Solar Energy Sector Explored

Question: Describe about the Indo-China Partnership for Solar Energy Sector Explored? Answer: Energy Demand: It is rightly said that the Energy demand is growing robustly in China, India and other Asia-Pacific countries. These energy demands can be met by achieving a mix of energy type that the governments of these countries are already applying. The Government of China, India and various other Asia-Pacific countries have already started investing in solar energy. The manufacturing of solar panels and deployment of solar cells in fields has helped these nations to make a step ahead towards meeting future demand for energy(BizTakes, 2015). In China the manufacturing of solar panels are made at large scales which are not only cheap in price but also give higher utility and output to the consumer. In India, huge incentives and discounts are offered on the manufacturing, sale and purchase of solar products which is an act towards appreciation for using solar energy as a new age source of energy. Investment in developing solar plants has been made in various Asia-Pacific countries for instance Singapore, Malaysia and other where there exist tourist destinations. Thus the hotels and houses are equipped with solar panels so as to add an additional source of energy that could save conventional energy sources(Hirshberg Schoen, 2014). The demand for energy will not be met by these countries unless until they will depend on conventional sources. Specially the highly populated countries like China and India which consumes conventional sources of energy on high scale will not able to meet its future energy demand at present scale of development. Thus it has become rather very important for these countries to work towards development of non-conventional sources of energy. The efforts of these countries can already be seen through followings. Solar panels are used for producing electricity. Solar pumps are used for pulling out water for irrigation. polar products are installed in traffic lights and street lights. Solar products are sold at heavy discounts through acknowledgement of government subsidies. (Jacobson Delucchi, 2011) This way the above mentioned and various other factors has been deployed to meet the future demand of energy by these countries. Importing energy is not a good idea as the dependence of one country on another would rather end up in conflicting situation. Also the unrest in Asia and pacific region will not allow these countries to enter into such positive alliances. The political ill will and border issues has already depleted the relations of these countries so much that hardly we could expect any gain from import of energy by any of these countries. Finally the import of energy is also not a preferred suggestion for a democratic and independent country. Dependence on energy on other country could even result in unfair interference and participation by other country. Thus instead of depending on other country for supplying energy, the country should work hard towards achieving the goal of self-dependence as far as energy requirements are concerned. in conclusion, Solar energy is the best source of energy that is supplied free to us and should be used as a primary source of energy. However efforts are required to be made it cheaper and popular among the masses(Sharma Harinarayana, 2013). Bibliography BizTakes, 2015. Indo-China partnership for solar energy sector explored.
