I am pleased to note that Maharashtra Solar Manufacturers’ Association
is launching its website on 25th Feb 2009 at Pune.
Solar Energy sector is witnessing a new boom world over. India has
also intensified its efforts to meet the challenges of growing energy
needs by harnessing solar energy.
Thousands of solar energy systems for water heating, lighting, water
pumping and communications are being used in our country. |

There is a well-developed solar industry in the country
which has developed these technologies, fine-tuned them and still
working to make them market oriented products. A number of initiatives
have been taken by my Ministry recently to promote electricity generation
through solar photovoltaic and solar thermal technologies. A novel
generation based incentive initiative was launched by my Ministry
in January 2008 which has met tremendous response. Solar industry
is going to have huge demand of large area solar PV modules as well
as solar thermal systems. I am sure Maharashtra, which has been
traditionally very advanced State for the solar industry, would
use these new schemes and initiatives for phenomenal growth of the
sector. I hope that Maharashtra Solar Manufacturers’ Association
would remain in forefront to voice the demand of solar industry
and will work as a vital link between industry, Maharashtra State
and Government of India.
I wish all success to their endeavors.
