First film with Solar energy in India

The prasad imaxcinemaslocated in the city of Hyderabadin the Indian State of andhra pradesh, will be the first in the country self-sufficient in electricity generating solar energy..

prasad imax has installed solar panels on the roofs of its building to obtain a 100KWp photovoltaic power generation system. The installation is constructed to withstand the strong winds and other weather, and has a guaranteed life of 25 years. With solar energy obtained it will supply electricity for lighting and displays complex, generating a significant energy savings.
This step has become the first "green" of the India cinema, and continues to demonstrate that it is one of the leading companies in this market (already holds the record for IMAX 3D the world's largest screen). Being a place of encounter and recreation for thousands of families and young people, this undertaking of prasad imax will surely serve to put into the public's attention the importance of the use of renewable energy sources.

The solar energy and the development of rural communities in India

The solar goes beyond of megaprojects, also offers the promise of decentralized supply, and therefore put the power of production in the hands of those who have traditionally been out of the equation. Because this is happening with solar in the India. Many rural communities in economic disadvantage are giving for ones with the power grid and turning toward the Sun as energysource.

The Mission Solar India is a very positive purpose to install 20 GW of solar energy in the next decade. And while there was some murmurs of discontent which claimed that the program was anti-pobres and anti-democratic, nowadays that is changing the lives of many people in rural areas.

There are those who believe that it could generate a technological and economic revolution not unlike what happened with the popularization of mobile phones, since people - tired of waiting years for a landline - turned en masse by the mobile. The time will show if indeed - hopefully, something similar happens with solar at India.
