Abstract

The renewable energy sources are going to become the long-term solution for future energy. Adequate infrastructure development is of crucial importance to harness power from them. This paper accumulates state-of-the-art issues and feasible solutions associated with large scale deployment of the renewable energy technologies. Various alternatives presented here are likely to change the look of the future power system. The role of existing technologies, automation, and communication for sustainable development is explained here. A case study of solar photovoltaic installation is presented to show efforts of India in sustainable energy development.
