I agree that all of sudden there is great upsurge in Solar Industry and lot of players with technical designing expertise and engg background venturing into it. Yes there is lack of enough knowledge as whole project and costing works on the storage of solar power in batteries and since the applications also rapidly shifting to dynamic mode, it is a requirement for relevant industries to jointly address this issue and come out with more interactive workshops to make this mode of energy really effective and efficient. Lack of awareness is hitting the breakeven cost of this project on OFF GRID projects because of wrong sizing of batteries, Improper calculation of solar panel wattage, charging current requirement, and type of solar charge controller.

Dear Sir , I appreciate the debate .YES. Now a days lot of power plants are coming in India , many of them in construction stage , some them are on the last of completion. as job opportunity every company wants a trained person . Till date i myself was trying search for suitable institute to learn.but could find none. i shall contact some expertise on panel of discussion .We should not forget quality / OJT / professional approach to a system.I my self has served the nation in Indian airforce for 20 yrs.now trying to establish in solar field.i request any sort of help. i ready to give 100 %i am BE E & TC.( guru2k6@indiatimes.com)

There is a need for initiation of Distance education programs by institutes such as IIT and IISc similar to MIT's online credit based courses. There are many power professionals who would be interested in moving over to the solar industry, which could be called the next sunrise industry. Solar is often associated with PV technology, but not many are aware of the potential for Concentrating Solar Power (CSP) technologies, which have the potential to play a greater role in large scale solar power generation.

Solar training is greatly required in India, particularly in those states who have their ambitious plans for solar pv project. I am glad to inform that our institute, Gujarat Energy Resear & Management Institute, Gandhinagar has been providing exclusive training in this arena and has conducted many trainings so far. Interested candidates may contact at 09558919440 or may write to me at sagar.a@germi.res.in

Yes. It is very much required. Sometime back I was told the Industrial training Institute was imparting training program here in TN. Over and above, I have no idea. For domestic use, the technicians, electricians be trained in installation methods. Also, they can be trained on preparing photo voltic cell that, is obviously cheaper, if they assemble on their own. Basics of Solar energy conversion principles such as DC to AC, Panel installation &requirement, battery requirement, controller instaltion etc be taught.

Equated focus to in policy making and market development for smaller products like home lighting systems, cellular chargers, etc., while traing automatically comes when once the awareness increases, as the market expands the use of technology becomes familier, Solar Industry more or less becomes like Computer hardware or cell phone industry in India.

@Mr. Ramesh Kandadai: my question is very simple, today India is investing in huge in solar projects but do we have enough skilled workforce to take care of these projects which are gonna come up the near future???? If there are certain training institute please do let me know...

There are institutes willing to impart training. However the dearth of Professionals in the field of Solar (PV & Thermal) is a big stopper. The School of Energy, Indore, MP, imparts ME in Renewable energy. More needs to be done. The various manufacturers are mere copy cats and have no strong R&D to innovate. Of late China is a easy route for all manufacturers for sub-standard and cheap solar products. Creating awareness to the exploit the potential of Solar for Industrial applications is the need of the hour.

With the amount of solar projects coming in India and the money being invested in the R&D in the technology, I think we should also focus on Solar training in the country.
