I support alternative energy like this but some important drawback need attention but I am glad India is building its own manufacturing to avoid China and not rely on "western" countries. The first drawback is huge land area required for solar and I prefer to put on building rooftops to use that otherwise unused space. The second is the need to store the energy to use at night and during cloudy days. The third is minimizing fossil energy consumption during manufacturing phase. The 4th is older technology with wiring on top of the cell should be redesigned to the bottom of the cell like SunPower USA does it to maximize efficiency.

But it is the same like with photo, computer, hifi, etc. etc. Founding activities are often done from Germany. But production ist always given away to asia.

solar panels aren't as green as advertised. first off the minerals used are hard to did out of the ground, second solar panels have no recycle nore repair plan so once a panel is damaged it gets replaced and tossed in the ocean. And 3rd. They have to be replaced every 20 years.

You keep showing a mirror solar farm though.

At 1:37 an explanation of how the bar is sliced into wafers is omitted. When the bar is cut into wafers, 50% of the bar is turned into useless dust. That's a great deal waste considering all the energy it took to fashion the silica quartz by process of heating the elements into a usable product. The quartz and carbon are heated by fuel and coal firing processes which produce pollution emissions. Might as well just used that energy for steam turbines.

This is a good question. At the beginning of the video it shows silica being heated in a furnace. What is that furnace burning to generate the heat to melt the silica? Is the first question I asked. Then there is a silver paste. How is that created? Then all the vinyl/plastic parts...from petroleum? And the metals used must be mined, what fuel is being used to do that? Smelting metals requires more heat... Also we need alot of batteries to store energy to use, at night or on cloudy days. So that is more manufacturing and raw materials. I'm not saying I don't support solar. I'm just wondering what the environmental cost is to manufacture enough solar panels (which could be affixed to many surfaces, not just empty land) to go completely solar. Can the planet afford that much more carbon emission? And the question someone else asked about recycling the panels when they're at the end of their 20 year cycle is good too. I would love to see a documentary that explores this more in depth and the possible solutions.

@bel z. I saw it. I don't know how outdated the info is. The questions about the amount of energy it takes to create solar, electric, wind turbines, nuclear reactors etc. are still valid. It's reasonable to ask for a cost and logistical analysis when considering alternative energy solutions, and to expect complete transparency about the downsides to them. What I don't want is a fluffy feel good ad campaign about how great these things are just so corps. and their lobbiests can get govt. contracts, then later we find out the net gain has only been to their shareholders, while the planet and people are no better off than before. And it seems like every time we blindly implement a new technology to fix one problem (or to make something easier or better), we end up with a different set of problems.

​@@abalakrishnan4152 No it's not. IF you are concerned about carbon then you need to start doing the maths on the true carbon cost of solar panels from life to death and then comparing it to the energy they produced in comparison to the carbon cost of nuclear power. In general the calculations for solar panels rarely go all the way back to the source materials and instead concentrate only on the manufacture, as a result the most quoted figures are wrong. Nuclear power would be far superior and most importantly, it's an entirely stable and predictable source of energy. Solar panels are not reliable because the power they provide is intermittent. Worse still, the panels lose efficiency in hot weather as the basic principle of the panels is undermined in such heat. Gas powered stations are superior to solar panels at this point. IF the alternatives being created based upon various mineral lattices become functional then we can talk again but until that point we need a reliable source of energy if we hope to avoid 2-3 billion people from starving to death. Solar panels also don't provide the necessary feedstock for nitrogen fertiliser production (this comes from natural gas). Do away with that or dramatically increase it's cost and you have a billion starving to death within a year.
