This report builds a compelling case for India to look beyond land and institute an ecosystem that supports the installation and operationalization of floating solar photovoltaics (FSPV) power plants.
The objectives of the policy are: To encourage participation of Private Sector to set up Solar Power based projects in the State; To define the incentives and benefits to be provided to the participants
Tamil Nadu government has announced this policy for the state with an aim of generating 1,000 Mw of solar power every year from 2015, setting up of solar energy parks along with incentives for solar power producers and equipment manufacturers.
This new report released by the Natural Resources Defense Council (NRDC) and the Council on Energy, Environment and Water (CEEW) shows that concentrated solar power can play an essential role in achieving a secure and diversified energy future for India.
New Delhi Nearly half of the 1,000-Mw capacity addition envisaged under the first phase of the national solar mission is likely to miss the commissioning schedule, with technical and equipment availability issues hampering progress in project execution. Developers are required to commission these projects by May next as per the terms of the power purchase agreement (PPA). In case of default on PPA, they would be liable to pay penalty. Apprehensive that they could fail to meet the committed schedule on power supply, developers have approached the nodal ministry for extension.
JODHPUR: Former chairman of the Atomic Energy Commission of India and former director of the Bhabha Atomic Research Centre, Anil Kakodkar has called solar energy the future source of energy looking at the ever-growing demand for energy. Kakodkar, member of the Solar Energy Research Advisory Council, was in Jodhpur on Tuesday and Wednesday with his team for detailed discussions with the IIT-J on the experimentation and demonstration of different technologies and plan the future course of action for promotion of solar energy research.
The policy aims at achieving the following objectives: To promote generation and use of clean and green power in the State by harnessing solar energy; To put in place an appropriate investment climate
From its inception in July 2010, the National Clean Energy Fund (NCEF) has collected revenues to the tune of Rs 1,066 crore in FY 2010-11, an estimated Rs 3,249 crore in FY 2011-12, and is expected to
A considerable amount of time and monetary resources have been spent by corporations, governments, researchers, scientists and engineers to promote the use of solar power based generation systems. Though
