He talked about solar power and how grid-connected solar power generation is a new concept in the country. Very few grid-connected solar photovoltaic power plants have been set up so far. Moreover, Dr. H Naganagouda emphasized, that our country is lacking in experienced manpower to design, construct, manage and maintain grid-connected solar power plants.
Dr. H Naganagouda said, in his lecture, that the objective is to fulfil the need for trained manpower in grid connected power plants. Dr. H Naganagouda explained that it is important to have training and education, including hands-on training in these aspects.
