Rural India does not have much infrastructure or development, but it does have plenty of sun.

450 million people in India live without electricity, many in places with no connection to any power grid. Therefore inexpensive photovoltaic solar panels offer a practical solution for those who live off grid and have little money.

Independent solar power can provide rural Indians with inexpensive, renewable energy for electricity, light and heat in their homes. It can also power electric water pumps for agricultural irrigation far more cleanly than diesel powered pumps.

Check out this video from CNN Eco Solutions to see how India is taking on its energy deficit by making solar panels, solar lamps and solar batteries available to off grid householders.
