India Energy Week: 3 Ways to Improve Energy Efficiency, Reliability and Asset Integrity
For fast-growing markets like India, where utilisation rates are high and new capacity is complex to deliver, improving thermal efficiency and asset performance offers a credible way to reduce fuel use, lower emissions and strengthen operational resilience at the same time.
5 Things to Know Before Buying Your First EV Scooter
For first-time buyers, the shift from petrol to electric is not always straightforward. Unlike conventional two-wheelers, EV scooters come with a different set of considerations, battery technology, charging options, digital features, and long-term ownership costs.
Manjunath N. Reddy, the dynamic Founder and Managing Director of DhaSh PV Technologies Limited, is a true visionary in India’s solar PV industry. A true pioneer, his unwavering dedication to sustainable energy solutions has propelled DhaSh to the forefront of the renewable energy sector and made DhaSh India’s largest integrated PV junction box manufacturer, employing over 1,000 dedicated professionals.
Re-NEW-ables Rising: Charging into a New Year
As we bid farewell to 2024, the anticipation for 2025 grows. Next year promises to build upon the strong foundation laid by the transformative investments, budgetary allocations, and policy decisions of 2024. With an unwavering focus on scaling renewable capacity, attracting international investments, and integrating cutting-edge technologies, 2025 is poised to bring India's green aspirations closer to reality. Major renewable energy players shared their plans and growth with Energetica India.
Solar-Powered Cars: Futuristic Dream or Unrealistic Ambition?
The only logical way to go forward to clean transportation is electric vehicles. Adopting EVs and powering them through energy produced by solar panels that is transmitted through the utility grid or a structure nearby.
INTERVIEW. Energetica India talks to Mr. Niranjan Nayak; Vice President, Delta India – PVI & Components Business about Delta Electronics Group, his view on the Indian solar market and the company’s achievements in the solar sector & Indian Energy Storage Market.
How Seriously is India Considering Rooftop Solar Applications?
India is obviously trying to build a stable infrastructure to uphold its rooftop solar vision. And MNRE’s announcement of generating 40 GW from grid connected solar rooftop installations by 2022, speaks in favor of India’s commitment to the idea. However, the latest installed capacity of a meagre 525 MW (in 2015) present some very logical doubts, putting India’s boast of reaching the mammoth goal on unstable grounds.
Electr?c?ty Product?on From PV Panel And Impact of Temperature to Product?on on the Panels
DC voltage occurs when light falls on the terminals of the solar panels. The resulting performance values of electricity, the amount of light falling on varies depending on the angle of incidence and climatic parameters. The yield of the electrical energy obtained from conversion according to the structure of the battery is between 10% and 20%.
Improving Operational Excellence in Wind Farms
Governments around the world are slowly scaling down renewable energy incentives such as tax benefits and generation based incentives while renewable energy electricity prices are falling. Companies are thus focusing on minimizing operations and maintenance (O&M) costs and maximizing power production. Data analytics enables O&M teams to achieve both goals by taking a closer look at the data from every plant device.
Green Bonds Can Drive Low Carbon Economy after Paris
The road set of national plans to take climate action which underpin the Paris Agreement are expected to accelerate government and business investment in large-scale climate-friendly projects with known returns, providing a fertile field for the issue of more green bonds.
Role of Bio-CNG in Development of Rural India: A Prospective Study
Since, India is rich in bio-waste in rural area as well as urban areas; a huge amount of energy can be harnessed from organic wastes that are biodegradable like cattle dung, food waste, agricultural waste, bagasse, sugar mill waste, waste from trees, dry leaves and green leaves etc.
As predicted in 2015, the global small wind market stop decreasing during 2014 and it is expected that it will increase again from 2015, at least in terms of capacity installed, mainly because an increase in the size of the new turbines installed in China and Europe. A minimum growth rate of 11% is anticipated to continue until 2016.
Growing presence of Energy Storage technologies in Global power market
As the energy scenario in India progresses, energy storage can play a vital role in supporting the growing renewable and power industry. According to IHS, a USA based market research firm, the global market for energy storage is expected to grow at 6 GW of installations annually in 2017 versus 0.34 GW of annual installation in 2012-13. Meanwhile, India Energy Storage Alliance (IESA) projects the storage potential in India to be around 15 GW by 2020
