The ultimate solution to power problems

The North India is time and again facing power related issues and this time it has been quite large with grids failing. Though the government is working on the grid failure, the ultimate problem lies in finding the alternate solution to the problem. The traditional sources of power have now become incapable of increasing energy requirements of the country. Though problems also lie in selling the electricity and politically correct prices due to which government electricity firms are making losses. One solution discussed widely is the privatization of transmission of electricity, which is though a feasible solution but not long term.
I think its time we move to greener energy. By green energy I am not going to talk about something which is good in black and white and not possible in near future. What I am talking about is Solar Energy. Though it is very common in north India for firms to have solar panels, I have seen houses with Solar Panel in South India. Major energy usage in most of the states is industrial but if the government can subsidies solar panel rather than electricity for households, it will ease a lot of pressure on energy demand.

A country like India, which in most of its parts has high incidence of solar rays, it becomes a long term investment to work in the area of solar energy. It can be made mandatory for most of the firms (meeting some specific criteria) to install solar panels. I, as a household entity would very much like to invest in solar panel which not only ensures my regular energy supply but also reduce my electricity bill.
