The sector is key to the reduction of carbon dioxide emissions and delivers a range of other benefits spanning energy security, opportunities for greater energy access, jobs and livelihood opportunities, as well as reduced or no pollution from electricity generation, among others. Though these benefits are substantial, virtually no sector is yet universally sustainable in its impact. As the RE sector continues to grow and evolve, it will need to be increasingly mindful of the need to ensure that adverse impacts on the environment, communities and human rights do not arise from its value chain and operations. This is particularly so as the relative positive and adverse impacts across RE value chains will only amplify as deployment scales. Now, in 2021, the sector has the opportunity to take proactive action - a step that is essential to avoid and mitigate risks to its progress. It is also critical in enabling sustainable growth for itself and for serving as a model for other growth sectors. We believe this is the moment for the RE sector in India to take steps to better understand its impacts more holistically and commit to mitigating action. The collective challenges we face require all sectors to take urgent and ambitious action towards a just and regenerative future. Now is the time for the renewable energy sector in India to transform itself into a responsible energy sector and take the lead in initiating the action towards the transition.

  • A Multi Criteria Decision Making Approach for the Selection of Optimum Location for Wind Power Project in India
    EAI Endorsed Transactions on Energy Web Research Article A Multi Criteria Decision Making Approach for the Selection of Optimum Location for Wind Power Project in India V. Manoj1,*, V. Sai Sravani2 and A. Swathi3 1Asst. Professor, Power Engineering Department, GMRIT, India 2UG Scholar, Power Engineering Department, GMRIT, India 3PG Scholar, Mechanical Engineering Department, GMRIT, India Abstract This study tried to find out the selection of site for the wind turbine in India. We have chosen six wind power projects which are located different places in India. Wind power, Hub height, Distance, Cost, CO2, Wind speed and Blade height are the seven criteria had taken for the selection of best location. The analytical hierarchy process (AHP) is integrated with technique for order reference by similarity to ideal solution (TOPSIS) to meet the objective of this study. Firstly, the weights of each criterion are to determine using AHP. These weights will be used in TOPSIS method to select the best project. A case study is performed to exhibit the application of the methods was conducted to evaluate six types of wind power projects. The AHP- TOPSIS result showed that the Muppandal wind farm, Kanyakumari is the best wind power project among the six projects.

  • PM Shri Narendra Modi Dedicated Rewa Ultra Mega Solar Power Project to the Nation
    Prime Minister's Office PM Shri Narendra Modi dedicated Rewa Ultra Mega Solar Power project to the Nation Solar energy will be a medium of energy needs of the 21st century because solar power is sure, pure and secure: PM Posted On: 10 JUL 2020 1:15PM by PIB Delhi The Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi dedicated to the Nation the Rewa Ultra Mega Solar Power project to the Nation via video conference today. It is Asia's largest power project. Speaking on the occasion the Prime Minister said the Rewa project will make the entire region a major hub for pure and clean energy in this decade. The Prime Minister praised the effort in that it will also supply power to the Delhi Metro, along with the entire region surrounding Rewa. He said very soon Madhya Pradesh would be the main centre of Solar Energy in India, as such major projects are in progress in Neemuch, Shajapur, Chattarpur and Omkareshwar. The biggest beneficiaries of this would be the poor, the middle class, the tribals, the farmers of Madhya Pradesh, he said. Prime Minister said Solar Energy would be a major medium for providing the energy needs of an aspirational India in the 21st Century. He described Solar Energy as one which is ‘Sure, Pure &Secure’. Sure because of the continuous supply of Energy from the Sun, Pure as it is environment friendly and Secure because it is a secure source for our energy needs. Prime Minister termed such Solar Energy projects are a true representation of Aatmanirbhar Bharat (Self- Reliant India).

Qamar Wind Turbine Design for a Hybrid System with the emphasis on generation complementarity by Fadhil Ahmad Qamar to obtain the degree of Master of Science in Sustainable Energy Technology at the Delft University of Technology, to be defended publicly on Tuesday August 18, 2020 at 13.00 PM. Student number: 4741986 Project duration: October 17, 2019 – August 18, 2020 Thesis committee: Prof. dr. D. A. von Terzi, TU Delft, chairperson Dr. ir. M. L. Zaayer, TU Delft, First supervisor Dr. ir. J. Quist, TU Delft, Second supervisor An electronic version of this thesis is available at http://repository.tudelft.nl/. Summary Reason for this research The global issue on global warming and climate change are one of the motivations that led nations to reform their means of generating power and meeting the electricity demand. Decarbonisation of the power system is imperative to reduce the carbon emission, and the penetration of renewable energy to the power system is expected to rise in the future. However, as the nature of renewable energy source being weather dependent, high penetration of this technology in the power system will pose additional challenges to the utilities and system operators. The hybrid power plants that include multi- ple generation technologies can combine the strengths and weaknesses of different technologies and results in a power system with better performance. For instance, combining wind, solar or other gen- eration technologies can results in a more stable generation with a generation profile similar to the base-load generation technology.
