About

S. Ramasesha is a leading figure in the field of photovoltaic energy systems, with a primary research focus on the feasibility and deployment of advanced solar technologies in emerging economies. Their most influential work, "The potential for concentrator photovoltaics: A feasibility study in India" (2018, 18 citations), provides a critical analysis of how concentrator photovoltaic (CPV) systems could complement India’s ambitious solar expansion plans. In this study, Ramasesha evaluates the technical and economic viability of CPV compared to conventional fixed-tilt crystalline silicon technology, highlighting the unique challenges and opportunities for high-efficiency solar in tropical climates. This contribution has been instrumental in guiding policy discussions and investment decisions for next-generation solar infrastructure. Beyond this landmark paper, Ramasesha’s research portfolio consistently addresses the intersection of renewable energy technology, grid integration, and sustainable development. Their work is widely cited by engineers, policymakers, and academics seeking to understand the practical pathways for scaling solar power in rapidly industrializing nations. Ramasesha’s insights continue to shape the discourse on how to balance cost, performance, and environmental impact in the global energy transition.
