this is the sort of thing that america needs to do if it wants to keep ahead of the curve: innovate.
and where is india in the solar energy sweepstakes? nowhere. i saw in forbes asia a list of the top 25 companies doing solar energy, and they include american, european and a large number of chinese (!) companies. zero indian companies.
and instead we're running after this chimera of fission power. we need it like we need a hole in the head.

I believe one of the most innovative and leading solar energy companies, Konarka Technologies has been set up by Indian scientists in Lowell, Mass.
I do realize it is not the same thing as doing it in India , but still its something;)
All is not lost -- the leading Wind company in the world is indian -- suzlon
Tamil Nadu's taken the lead on alternative energy projects. Moser Baer's setting up their thin film solar manufacturing plant there.
