Could you please give me data base the energy need for the world, and also for India in future? and informations about PV productions? especially CdTe solar cells?
France is a leader in modern energy thinking and they are going NUCLEAR.The US has the same opportunity -a prime site would be the Bethlehem property out-side of Buffalo NY.

Silicon cells use wafers about 200 microns thick. Thin films use layers just a few microns thick. But how much is that really? How many cells can First Solar make out of 1 kg of CdTe?

Cheaper Materials Could Be Key To Low-cost Solar Cells
ScienceDaily (Feb. 19, 2009) — Unconventional solar cell materials that are as abundant but much less costly than silicon and other semiconductors in use today could...
Generally speaking, renewable energy is more expensive than traditional sources and it's not yet efficient enough to be a major contributer to our energy needs. See http://www.renewableenergy101.info for more info.

First Solar embarks on game-changing PV strategy
Faced with what he described as a “structurally imbalanced” photovoltaics (PV) market, First Solar ’s interim CEO Michael Ahearn has told investors that the company must now focus on utility-scale projects outside of the traditional, subsidized markets that it has served thus far.
Ahearn said that the PV market was faced with a major difficulty, in that there is now effectively no constraint on polysilicon feedstock supply, and no barrier to entry for the production of crystalline silicon cells and modules. So long as capital is available and subsidized demand is uncapped, production will increase, forcing prices down in the way that has been so evident this year.
As a result, the company is changing its strategy . It faced a tough choice: continue to chase the traditional PV markets, created by government-funded subsidies but ultimately unsustainable; or embark on a new mission to provide unsubsidized solar electricity in new markets by aggressively lowering the cost of the technology. It has chosen the latter option.

In most people’s minds, fujitsu T4220 Battery electricity is a clean source of energy when using lamps, televisions, refrigerators, air conditioners and other appliances, perhaps we did not realize the power of the damage to the environment, the actual coal-fired power generation on the environment damage is significant. China is now the world’s No. powers of greenhouse gas emissions, while the conventional electricity production using coal, oil, natural gas, power generation, has become China’s carbon dioxide and other greenhouse gases, one of the major sources of emissions, but also a large number of coal-burning emissions of harmful gases such as sulfur dioxide . When we use conventional electricity, we are in fact an indirect polluters, because we only created the demand for electricity supply, and thus indirectly on the environment caused by pollution. At the same time we are also victims of pollution.
