    In India, we are very fortunate to have our location at the Tropic of Cancer making India one of the best locations for solar power generation. Some people have even compared India with solar farm of this world. In foreign countries people are seeking solar energy to fulfil their daily requirements of energy. But in India, solar power generation didn't really pick up. What are the reasons behind it? One obvious reason is the affordability factor. An average Indian household requirement is 300W per day, which requires an investment of more than 3 Lakhs. In Indian scenario, solar power generation is feasible only for higher class people or top class institutes, complexes, multiplexes and towers. Solar power energy generation is way beyond the reach of common people. This paper bequeaths the fabrication of Do It Yourself Solar Kit which is accessible to people from their nearest stores and can be easily set up using simple tools without any professional help.
