Solar products are being increasingly used to meet rural needs. By the end of 2015, a cumulative total of just under 1 million solar lanterns have been sold in the country, reducing the need for expensive kerosene. In addition, a cumulative total of 30,256 solar powered pumps had been installed for irrigation and drinking water. During 2015 alone, 118,700 solar home lighting systems were installed, and 46,655 solar street lighting installations were provided under a national program. In January 2016, India and France laid the foundation stone for the headquarters of the International Solar Alliance (ISA) in Gurgaon. The ISA will focus on promoting and developing solar energy and solar products for countries lying wholly or partially between the Tropic of Cancer and the Tropic of Capricorn. The alliance of over 120 countries was announced at the Paris COP21 climate summit. With about 300 clear, sunny days in a year, the theoretically calculated solar energy incidence on India's land area is about 5000 trillion kilowatt-hours (kWh) per year (or 5 EWh/yr). The solar energy available in a year exceeds the possible energy output of all fossil fuel energy reserves in India. Grid connected solar electricity generation has reached 1% of the total utility electricity generation. Presently, solar generation is serving to meet the peak load during the day time in non-monsoon months when the electricity spot prices are fetching above the daily average price.I. In India, Solar power is being used i. for lights and pumps ii. as direct fuel for cooking iii. both i and ii iv. neither of i and ii. II. International Solar Alliance will focus on i. developing solar energy and solar products for India and France ii. promoting solar energy in India along with some other countries iii. both i and ii iv. neither of i and ii. III. If all the possibilities of deployment of solar energy plants are exhausted in the country, i. solar energy can exceed the possible energy output of fossil fuel energy reserves in India ii. price of electricity can come down iii. both i and ii iv. neither of i and ii.The correct answers to I, II and III are: A. iii, iii and iv, respectively B. iii, i and ii, respectively C. i, ii and i, respectively D. iii, iii and ii, respectively.
