  • Airport Solarisation - Cial Steals the Thunder
    AIRPORT SOLARISATION - CIAL STEALS THE THUNDER A case study prepared by Dr. Mohan B. and Dr. Filomina P. George The fact that sun is the ultimate power house had dawned up on human mind long ago, however availing its abundant energy to solve the ever growing power woes remained a technical challenge. Modern world saw the emergence of photovoltaic cell technology as an opportunity in this direction, but its commercial success remained elusive. The PV cell technology based solar power proved to be costly in its generation, its support systems and its maintenance. The litmus test for its universal acceptance was finally the cost of electricity generated from it in comparison with the energy generated from conventional sources like coal, hydropower, or petroleum. The fact remained that the solar power cost at consumer end was 3 to 4 times the cost of power from other sources, and that proved to be a stumbling block in its wide acceptance. Governments across the globe have been offering tremendous financial support for initiatives in solar energy, hoping it would induce much more efforts in this area finally unleashing a technological revolution to make it competitive in all respects. Germany and the rest of the western world have been leading such efforts and all were looking up to them for a solution, but a small entity from God’s own country has stolen their thunder by becoming the first Airport in the globe to meet all its energy needs from solar energy. It may have surprised the whole world, but not those who have closely followed the genesis and growth of CIAL, the first International Airport in India to form on a Public Private Partnership (PPP) model.

  • Fiscal Issues and Allocative Efficiency Executive Summary
    Final Report Fiscal Issues and Allocative Efficiency National Transport Development Policy Committee July 2012 Project Team Project Leader Rajesh Chadha Research Team Sourabh Bikas Paul Anjali Tandon Computer and Design Support Praveen Sachdeva Library Support B.B. Chand Secretarial Assistance Sudesh Bala FOREWORD An efficient and reliable transport system is an absolute necessity for the Indian economy’s rapid growth. Without that, both the goods and service sectors suffer in their domestic and global competitiveness. Indian policymakers have woken up to this fact. As the economy aspires to near double-digit growth rates over the next decade, and to recover from the current slide in the growth rate, huge investments are required in roads, railways, ports, and aviation. While the public sector can continue to play a role in building and maintaining transport infrastructure, policymakers have recognised the financial and managerial need for a much bigger role for the private sector and for public–private partnerships (PPP) if India is to have the transport infrastructure it so badly needs. India’s transport intensity—the share of transport services in total production costs--- is the highest among a group of eleven developed and developing countries. It is 11 per cent higher than in South Africa, 14 per cent higher than in China, and 38 per cent higher than in Brazil. These differences suggest that the Indian economy is far less efficient in its use of transport services than its BRICS comparators. The primary objective of this NCAER study commissioned by the National Transport Development Policy Committee was to comprehensively document and analyse the role of taxes and user charges in the Indian transport sector.

This progress report aims to update my constituents with some key aspects of the work I have undertaken so far as the Member of Parliament for Thiruvananthapuram from 2014 onwards, in continuation of my work in the previous five years. Page | 4 2. ROADS NH Bypass (Kazhakkoottam–Karode) (End to over 40 years wait) This landmark project connecting our city with Tamil Nadu (passing through 6 out of 7 Assembly segments in the constituency) is a historic, first of its kind project in Thiruvananthapuram since Independence, both in terms of scale and costs. In addition, its potential for increasing the economic development of the district is unmatched, leading me, as your MP, to give its implementation topmost priority.
