- In India conventional power resources are inadequate. Recently the rate of energy consumption has been increased.
- Hence there is urgent need to harness other alternative power resources.
- Top priority has been given for the development of non conventional power resources.
- They are capable of solving the requirements. Such as supply of energy in decentralized manner and have sustainable environment.
- Thus the development of the these power resources is very essential.
