The correct answer is: a) Solar energy.
Mizoram has a significant potential for the development of solar energy. The state receives an average of 5.5 kWh/m2/day of solar radiation, which is higher than the national average of 4.5 kWh/m2/day. This makes Mizoram an ideal location for the development of solar power plants.
Solar energy is a renewable and sustainable source of energy that does not produce any emissions. It is also a cost-effective source of energy, and the cost of solar panels has been declining in recent years.
The development of solar energy in Mizoram would have a number of benefits. It would help to reduce the state’s reliance on imported energy, it would create jobs in the solar industry, and it would help to reduce greenhouse gas emissions.
Biomass energy is a renewable energy source that is derived from organic matter. Biomass can be used to generate electricity, heat, and transportation fuels.
Geothermal energy is a renewable energy source that is derived from the heat of the Earth’s interior. Geothermal energy can be used to generate electricity, heat buildings, and provide hot water.
Nuclear energy is a non-renewable energy source that is derived from the splitting of atoms. Nuclear energy can be used to generate electricity.
The development of nuclear energy in Mizoram is not currently being considered.
