A new industry body will lobby for solar power to be made mandatory.

The Masdar Institution of Science and Technology has created a forum to promote building sustainability and solar technologies, ConstructionWeekOnline can reveal.

Emirates Solar Industries Association, which currently has around 35 members, is set to be rolled out to the wider market in the next couple of months.

“The aim is to pressurise the government to set compulsory regulations so that people will invest in solar power technologies,” said Eurostar divisional manager for solar technical and business development Jit Chakravarty.

Eurostar will soon introduce photovoltaic panels, which will power buildings by converting solar energy into electricity.

“This will take some time because it is quite expensive, but we are expecting 2010 to see a big growth in solar technology,” Chakravarty added.

Solar Power Generator
Ideal for camping or emergency power outages, the Sun Power Port is a portable generator that when used to its full potential will pay for itself in less than two years. In one day of full sunshine, the solar panel easily charges the 12 volt (standard automobile) battery. An inverter changes the DC current to AC. From there the electrical energy is easily accessible to most standard 110 volt small appliances used in North America. What are the advantages of a solar generator? If you don't know, check out sunpowerport.com. The featured generator will run most small electrical appliances. It is great for camping or emergency backup. No noise. No fumes.
