US solar company Suniva, Inc., announced the commissioning of its largest solar power installation with Titan Energy Systems Ltd., located in Karnataka, India. The 3-megawatts (MW), ground-mounted system is the largest grid-connected solar field in India, covering more than 12 acres.
The system was designed and deployed by Titan and is owned and operated by Karnataka Power Corporation Ltd., one of India’s largest power providers. Karnataka Power will distribute power generated by the system to local farmers for irrigation purposes.
In November 2009, the Indian government approved a National Solar Mission, which aims to deploy at least 20 gigawatts (GW) of solar projects by 2020. This strategic initiative is part of the country’s plan to provide power to millions of citizens lacking access to energy sources, as well as to combat climate change.
Over the next five years, Titan plans to develop a series of
large-scale projects and installations in Andhra Pradesh, India, using
Suniva’s technology.
In August 2008, Suniva and Titan signed a $480 million long-term supply deal.
In October 2009, Suniva Inc. announced plans to invest $250 million in a new solar manufacturing facility in Saginaw County, Michigan

Were you looking at YouTube? There are a nubemr of good videos there just search for solar water heater . These will not lay out every detail, it’s still assumed that you have the basic design skills to figure out how to put various sizes of pipes together, build a wooden box, etc.If you mean photovoltaic (solar electric) panels, there basically isn’t a cost-effective way to make good ones. There are various scams on the internet implying that you can do so don’t waste your money. If it were practical and cheap, the knowhow would spread like wildfire, and you would see houses everywhere with homemade panels.
