The Solarillion Foundation is a not-for-profit research, outreach and education organization. Established in 2012, Solarillion encourages and mentors highly motivated under-graduate students interested in research in the emerging areas of renewable energy and sustainable engineering. These students will ideally continue to pursue higher education in established institutions and to follow a career path in research and innovation.
Over the last century, the world has witnessed rapid industrialization and development with the progress made in conventional electricity generation, transmission and distribution. The progress made in this infrastructure has spurred subsequent developments in industrial, manufacturing and telecom infrastructure. With increasing research in climate change and the harmful effects of greenhouse gases being recognized, renewable energy has been gaining prominence.
Yet another challenge that continues to remain is that of energy access to a large population in rural India, Asia, Latin America and Africa. As many as four hundred million citizens in rural India are deprived of access to energy. As these regions have inadequate energy infrastructure, it makes it almost impossible for electrification of households. These parts of the world beseech immediate attention to find solutions to sustain and meet their energy requirements. These under-serviced areas need to adapt themselves to meet demand by switching to alternate – renewable and sustainable technologies, which the Ministry of New and Renewable Energy (MNRE), Government of India, would facilitate through its policy.
The advances in technology, distributed generation and declining cost of solar energy generation provides a unique opportunity to address this challenge using low cost, market driven, sustainable and scalable technology in parts of world like rural India where energy access continues to be a dream.
