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.
India-based Navalakha Translines chose Growatt’s string inverters for its 6 MW ground mounted plant in the Osmanabad district of Maharashtra in 2012, at a time when prices of string inverters were prohibitive for ground mounted solar PV plants. But the decision paid off, as the inverters with smart cooling are a great fit for the uneven terrain witnessing temperatures as high as 45 degrees Celsius.
Soltec: The Evolution of Trackers to Conquer the Market
Since 2009, Soltec has been supplying trackers, innovating new solutions and product upgrades to adapt with market needs. It is the third largest manufacturer and supplier of solar tracking equipment for PV plants worldwide. The company offers cost-effective high-yield equipment with high-tolerance installation features, and the proven reliability to meet project criteria of schedule, cost and quality.
Is Atmarnirbharta that Easy for India’s Solar Story?
As India now focusses on being Atmanirbhar which is indeed a step in the right direction, what the government needs to realise is that it is not fair to promote one segment over another, it must provide equal opportunities to all stakeholders.
Why Obtain Third Party Testing and Certification on Data Cables
Increase in data demand has meant a far greater emphasis on cable design to reduce or eliminate the undesirable effects of electromagnetic interference (EMI). Pair geometry, choice of dielectric and shielding are all design considerations when manufacturers are looking to negate the impact.
A New Renewable Energy Tariff Structure to Ease Pressure on Indian Discoms
An interim solution to buy time for discoms to make durable, long-term reforms June 2020 saw Solar Energy Corporation of India’s (SECI) auction deliver yet another record low solar power tariff in the Indian market with Rs 2.36/kWh with zero indexation for 25 years.
Commercial & Industrial PV Adopts 1500V High-Power Solutions. What Do the Cost Savings Look Like?
For a long time, distributed solar PV plants have been an important part of the clean energy mix. Most solar projects are 1100V and 1000V, but with the adjustment of policies across the globe, grid parity, cost reduction and efficiency increase have become the primary considerations of developers of distributed power stations. Under this new green power ecology, the 1500V system is gradually becoming the mainstream in large-scale projects such as ground power stations.
INDUSTRY JEWEL: Avinash Hiranandani, Global CEO & Managing Director, RenewSys India Pvt. Ltd.
Mr Avinash Hiranandani leads RenewSys, the renewable energy arm of the ENPEE Group. As a student of Engineering, he completed his Bachelor’s Degree in the same and then went on to pursue a Post-Graduation in Marketing. He is committed to updating his skill set and has supplemented his education with frequent business training, including one from Columbia Business School, and other global in-house trainings to further enrich his outlook and experience.
India Still Nowhere Near to Its Quality Energy Requirements
Primary determinants of power quality are frequency of voltage spikes or interruptions. Poor quality of power not only affects the quality of life and comfort, but on a larger and considerable scale results in loss of industrial and commercial productivity. The large gap between demand and supply of power is the root cause of the subtly worsening power quality across India.
Imperative to have sustainable and efficient technology for solar pumps
Given that most of the pumps are dependent on electricity for their functioning, it becomes a challenge in off-grid areas. Thus, solar-powered pumps have emerged as a sustainable solution to enable farmers to operate hassle-free without any dependency on the grid.
Benefits of Modular Design - A Future-Proof Solution for EV Charging Stations
Given that many technologies eventually become obsolete, there is considerable risk when investing in EV chargers because the capital costs are so high. The problems faced by EV charging stations are not only complex, but they’re extremely expensive. This is complicated by the fact a truly viable business model is yet to be established for EV charging stations.
