What are the options for domestic clean energy generation in India?

By domestic I mean a single house. We're building a new one and would like to power it as much as possible with our own energy supply. I've heard there are companies that provide wind and solar solutions for homeowners. Any idea where to look for such in India? Also, are they cost-effective yet? How long to recoup the investment on average? I'm asking for actual power solutions, by the way, not things like water heaters and garden lights and such.

I've tried the Suzlon and Vestas websites and I don't see any mention of any domestic solutions. All other places I've found for solar mention only outdoor lighting and water heating. Where are the power generation options? If you know any companies that cater to this market, please share here.

Can anyone provide me with some good logic or actual facts on how BRIC (Brazil Russia India and China) helped us switch to alternative energy?
I get that they increased pollution, but what else?

Alternative Energy?

I've read reports that by 2030, 115 million barrels of oil need to be produced to the meet the increase needs of China and India.
This particular author advocated highly for alternative energies.
However, I read another source, where the argument was that alternative energies were just as harmful to the environment.
It is clear that the stifling need of fuels from over-populated India and China pose a large challenge, but is alternative energy the answer? Is there really enough oil to last us at least a century as some sources suggest? It's difficult to get the truth from so many differing biases on our economy and fuel-usage.
