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.
The chief purpose of a transformer in an electrical route is to shoot up or reduce voltages. Although one can find a plethora of different kinds of convertors available in the marketplace, but the dry type is highly commended to use, since they are cost-effective, more efficient, and come up with more safety features.
Technological Advancements in the Solar Sector in India: Evolution for the Past Decade
In 2010, the total installed solar capacity in the country was nearing 10 MW. Thereafter, practical use of solar power as a mainstream energy source showed phenomenal growth, reaching more than 37 GW installed capacity in 2020. The primary drive behind this growth was Government support with worldwide acceptability of solar creating an environment of continuous technological evolution.
How Inverter’s MPPT Structure Affects Power Generation
Different MPPT structure will affect the solar system production. From the perspective of solving the mismatch problem, one MPPT with fewer strings is better. However, in terms of stability and efficiency, the more strings for one MPPT, the better it is, because if with more MPPT, the higher the system cost, and the more the loss. In practical applications, it is necessary to combine the actual terrain to select the appropriate solution.
A Guide on Battery Storage Certification for Renewable Energy Sector
While the momentum for leveraging BESS in India’s renewable energy sector has been created, recent fire accidents involving mostly Lithium-ion battery storage systems in the U.S., Europe, Australia and South Korea underscore the need for safety standards.
White Paper: How to Select a Safe and Reliable Residential Inverter
The key factors which should be paid attention to when selecting a safe and reliable residential inverter are security, reliability and user-friendly settings.
Energy Storage Systems and Smart Future Cities - An Indian Perspective
Today, 54% of people worldwide live-in cities and this is expected to reach 66% by 2050. Overall population growth and urbanization is expected to add another 2.5 billion people to cities over the next three decades. Energy storage has been identified as a key to climate change mitigation. Globally, only 3% of power capacity is being stored. To limit global warming to below 2°C, energy storage capacity needs to triple by 2050.
INDUSTRY JEWEL: Anil Munjal, CEO and Director, Riello Power India
The rising number of technological advancements and government’s initiatives to improve electrification rate and development of smart cities across the country will further push demand for UPS systems across the country in the coming years.
Global Experience of Retail Competition in Power Supply and Implications for India
If retail competition is introduced to the power distribution sector, and the ‘supply’ and ‘wires’ business separated, what are the implications for India? This article, explores the international experience of market-based reforms, and contextualize them to India’s own reform experience. Given the risk the disruption poses to the supply obligation for universal electricity access India’s aggressive renewables transition, the authors question the suitability of ‘retail competition’.
Top 5 Incentives in India to foster Rooftop Solar
Solar energy is the technology trend of the decade. The electricity harnessed from the clean and green solar energy has reached its commercialization state and is all set to lighten up the world putting off the load on exhaustible fossil fuels. India has ample sunlight with about 300 clear sky and sunny days in a year.
Digital Transformation of Wind Turbine Manufacturing and Operations
It is costly to manufacture wind turbines, but you need to find ways to keep the total installed costs low as the price offered per kilowatt-hour is decreasing. To remain competitive and increase innovation, efficiency, and cost savings, you must transform by implementing smart digital planning tools into your manufacturing operations management.
