		<description><![CDATA[As Mr Brakels has said, it does make good commercial and business sense. I stay in Delhi and there are vast tracts of land available which is of no use except for &quot;Kikar&quot; plants or shrubs on those land. It serves no purpose. But the land can be used for creating solar farm by erecting and mounting panels at least 10 to 15 feet above the ground level. This way purpose of generating electricity from Solar Panels can be done and also there will be shade below it and the plants or the Kikar shrubs will not be destroyed. Fauna and flora of the land will be maintained.]]></description>

This is good News for people without solar power as the costs of clean coal power will come down to its normal price, as it was grid solar power that caused the price of coal energy to go up which pay for grid connected solar power.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I Proud to voted for New Government to burn more coal, more coal more jobs, that why the government is proudly axing the Clean energy future. 


Thank to Liberals Nationals  for that, More Coal more Jobs More energy at lower cost. Beside rooftop grid solar panel go on fire as reported on QLD radio.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[According to your statement that is quite right to say what you did. Fact 1, solar rooftop home does depend on the main coal transmission lines in order to receive good quality of power and reliability to the solar un-powered home. 

Fact 2, with out the good coal quality of power the streets transmission lines your grid tide system would not function at all and sit there doing nothing.

Fact 3, wind turbines, depend on coal power in order to function with out it will not work. 

Fact 4, solar Grid connected system produce dirty power, which is of poor quality not conforming to the power Act. 

Last night the Former TV boss which now works for the Abbott government said that solar power was not justified, caused the cost of electricity to go up, calling for the solar scheme to be removed from the power network.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Land tends to be cheap in relation to the cost of capital in Andhra Pradesh, so I doubt they will invest the extra money in making the metal frames suitable for agriculture.  However, this doesn&#039;t mean an enterprising Indian farmer couldn&#039;t put the land to agricultural use anyway can carefully cultivate stuff between or under the panels.  



Here in Australia solar panels could improve plant growth on a lot of marginal land by improving water availability but no one is likely to bother growing food on solar farms due to the high cost of labour.  We only grow food where machinery limits the amount of labour required.  (Maybe in the future a robot could grow food on a solar farm?)  But Australia is unlikely to build much in the way of solar farms due to our habit of sticking on our roofs as our high retail electricity prices make this the most economical option.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[While rooftop solar is appealing in India as it can take the place of diesel generators during blackouts, because India subsidises the retail price of electricity the incentive to install rooftop solar is reduced.  But incentives that counter the disincentive to install rooftop solar have been put in place in some areas.  However, for now I think large scale utility solar will continue to outpace point of use solar in areas that are on grid.  Of course, for the hundreds of millions of Indians who are off grid point of use solar is the only way to go.]]></description>
