Difficulty level: Moderate
Reference: The Hindu , Insights on India
Why the question: The article discusses government finally bringing into effect a policy that will discourage solar power project developers from relying on imported panels. Key Demand of the question: To write about the scope and limiting factors in the growth of solar energy and measures taken by the government to promote them, Directive word: Discuss – This is an all-encompassing directive – you must debate on paper by going through the details of the issues concerned by examining each one of them. You must give reasons for both for and against arguments. Structure of the answer: Introduction: Begin by giving context regarding the development of solar energy in India. Body: First, mention about the huge potential for growth, emission-free nature and consistent nature of solar energy production in contrast with other forms of energy. Next, evaluate the various constraining factors for a solar energy – such as land requirement, man power, financing, efficiency and manufacturing needs etc. Next, write about the various measures taken by the government to promote solar energy. Conclusion: Conclude with way forward.
