    He replied, we have to take this into account.
    " I worked on a project of Micro-turbine. Which can produce power in packets. If we can apply this technology in Solar/wind, we can bank heavily on them. Because Gas is going to run out one day.

    Non conventional energy resources are technologically feasible by not commercially. It has to change for good."
