This is a case study on 100MW Rajasthan Sun Technique CSP plant, the first linear Fresnel CSP plant in India and the largest in the world. It finds that while Indian solar policy was essential to build this innovative plant it was not enough for India to deploy CSP plants at the desired level and speed.
This new study by WWF-India and TERI examines the possibility of a near 100% Renewable Energy Scenario (REN) for India by the middle of the century against a reference scenario in which the economy is likely to be dependent primarily on fossil fuels - coal, oil and gas.
As one of the eight missions under India’s National Action Plan for Climate Change (NAPCC), the Jawaharlal Nehru National Solar Mission (JNNSM) was launched in January 2010 with the aim of accelerating
The specific objective of the study is to assess the potential of India’s industries to set up a manufacturing base for production of Concentrating Solar Power (CSP) technology components and equipment.
This is draft of Odisha Solar Policy, 2013 which aims to promote use of solar energy in the state to support development and address the problem of energy security.
This paper investigates the effect of the Delhi Metro on air pollution within Delhi and finds strong evidence to show that it has resulted in reductions of two important vehicular emissions - nitrogen dioxide and carbon monoxide.
This documents is prepared based on draft guide lines issued by MNRE for selection of 750 MW New grid connected Solar Power projects Under JNNSM Phase-II, Batch-I and may undergo changes.
Photovoltaics is becoming increasingly inexpensive. In contrast, the prices for electricity from conventional power plants are climbing. This is making the solar farm market segment progressively more
The state of Tamil Nadu is rich in renewable energy (RE) sources, especially wind and solar. Currently, approximately one-third of the country’s installed RE capacity exists in Tamil Nadu alone. The Action
Operational efficiency is crucial for the success of both solar photovoltaic (PV) and concentrating solar power (CSP) projects. Solar tracking systems, which help solar panels in absorbing the maximum
