Green Grids Initiative — One Sun, One World, One Grid; Country: Global: Partners: International Solar Alliance, India, France, United Kingdom: Vision: The OSOWOG initiative aims to connect different regional grids through a common grid that will be used to transfer renewable energy power and, thus, realize the potential of renewable energy sources, especially solar energy.
In addition to its large-scale grid-connected solar photovoltaic (PV) initiative, India is developing off-grid solar power for local energy needs. [14] Solar products have increasingly helped to meet rural needs; by the end of 2015 just under 10 lakh (1 million) solar lanterns were sold in the country, reducing the need for kerosene . [ 15 ]
World map with the Torrid Zone, the area between the Tropics of Cancer and Capricorn, highlighted in red.. The International Solar Alliance (ISA) is an alliance of more than 120 signatory countries, [1] most being sunshine countries, which lie either completely or partly between the Tropic of Cancer and the Tropic of Capricorn.
[39] [40] Cochin International Airport, seventh busiest in India, is the first one in the world to run entirely on solar power, [41] [42] handling more than 1,000 flights a week. Similarly, the Union Territory of Diu is fully run by solar power. [43]

The Sun is a rotating sphere of plasma at the center of the Solar System. It lacks a solid or liquid surface, so the interface separating its interior and its exterior is usually defined as the boundary where plasma becomes opaque to visible light, the photosphere. Since plasma is gaseous in nature, this surface has no permanent demarcated ...
The total length of high voltage (HV) transmission lines (220kV and above) would be enough to form a square matrix of area 266 km 2 (i.e. a square grid 16.3 km on a side, so that on average there is at least one HV line within a distance of 8.15 km) over the entire area of the country. This represents a total of almost 20% more HV transmission ...
Schematic with five proposed methods for solar radiation modification technologies. Solar radiation modification (SRM) (or solar radiation management or solar geoengineering), is a group of large-scale approaches to limit global warming by increasing the amount of sunlight (solar radiation) that is reflected away from Earth and back to space.
