  • Wind Turbine Design for a Hybrid System with the Emphasis on Generation Complementarity
    Wind Turbine Design for a Hybrid System with the emphasis on generation complementarity F. A. 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.

  • 1. Introduction
    Tamil Nadu State Action Plan for Climate Change 1. INTRODUCTION 1.1 BACKGROUND Globally observations point towards a climate change scenario as temperatures are increasing, sea levels are rising, with a perceivable increase in severity and frequency of extreme events (IPCC 2007a; Special Report on Managing the Risks of Extreme Events and Disasters to Advance Climate Change Adaptation (SREX), 2012) and the speed of the change is evidently fast. This is leading to a complex situation, whereby all spheres of our existence are being impacted. Model projections; indicate a further escalation of the situation if greenhouse gas concentrations in the atmosphere from anthropogenic sources keep on rising unabated. It is surprising that solutions to adapt or mitigate the situation essentially are emerging from indigenous knowledge, State of art technology and research in all disciplines and fields. Due to global temperature rise and speed at which climate change is occurring, it is evident that countries are becoming vulnerable to climate change, which reduces the development path. Hence, capacity to adapt should be increased through implementation of suitable national adaptation plans. Future vulnerability depends not only on climate change but also on the type of development path that is pursued. Thus adaptation needs to be implemented in the context of national and global sustainable development efforts. The international community is identifying resources, tools, and approaches to support this effort. Adapting to climate change entails taking the right measures to reduce the negative effects of climate change (or exploit the positive ones) by making the appropriate adjustments and changes. There are many options and opportunities to adapt.

    International Research Journal of Engineering and Technology (IRJET) e-ISSN: 2395 -0056 Volume: 02 Issue: 07 | Oct-2015 www.irjet.net p-ISSN: 2395-0072 An Analysis of Wind power generation and consumption scenario in Tamil Nadu State of India Dr. I. Arul, [email protected] Assistant Executive Engineer, Tamilnadu Electricity Board, TamilNadu, India Abstract reach a total of 22.5 GW. Among renewable, wind power accounted for almost two-thirds of the installed capacity. India is one of the most energy hungry The Indian government expects the share of renewable developing countries in the world. Around 300 million energy, presently at 6.9% of the total electricity Indians lack access to electricity in a country where per- production in the country, to grow to at least 15% in the capita electricity consumption is one-fourth of the next five years. India also wants to put in place world’s average. Tamil Nadu has 7,300 MW of installed 60,000MW of wind power capacity by then in a country wind energy capacity. Of this, nearly 90 MW was added that’s the world’s third largest emitter of greenhouse in 2014. Total capacity consists of 11,900 wind turbines gases, behind only the US and China. Wind energy’s and 110 pooling stations. Consumption of wind energy in share in the total power mix of the country was 2013-2014 was just 9000 million units as against more approximately 3% for the calendar year 2014 (National than 11000 million units in 2012-2013.

  • Wind Power Development in Tamil Nadu
    International Journal of Research in Social Sciences Vol. 8 Issue 3, March 2018, ISSN: 2249-2496 Impact Factor: 7.081 Journal Homepage: http://www.ijmra.us, Email: [email protected] Double-Blind Peer Reviewed Refereed Open Access International Journal - Included in the International Serial Directories Indexed & Listed at: Ulrich's Periodicals Directory ©, U.S.A., Open J-Gage as well as in Cabell’s Directories of Publishing Opportunities, U.S.A WIND POWER DEVELOPMENT IN TAMIL NADU Dr. T. Palaneeswari* Abstract Wind power is one of the oldest-exploited energy sources by humans and today is the most seasoned and efficient energy of all renewable energies. Wind energy does not contaminate, it is inexhaustible and reduces the use of fossil fuels, which are the origin of greenhouse gasses that cause global warming. In addition, wind energy is a native energy, because it is available practically everywhere on the plant, which contributes to reducing energy imports and to creating wealth and local employment. Tamil Nadu is the leading State in India in promoting and harnessing renewable sources of energy particularly wind. Tamil Nadu is endowed with rich wind energy potential in the country. In the Tirunelveli region in Tamil Nadu alone, there are two wind seasons – May to October and November to March, with the wind speeds higher during the first period. In Muppandal in Tamil Nadu, the wind speed exceed 43.2-46.8 km an hour during the peak period. Of the total installed capacity in the country of 26915 MW, the share of Tamil Nadu is 7654.17 MW as on 31st March, 2016.

As a result of proper planning and immense investment, Tamilnadu has the highest Small-hydro installed capacity of grid connected renewable power in India and has a share of 35% of India's installed Cogeneration Bio-derived energy capacity of wind energy. Presently, the capacity addition is not up to the mark. Meanwhile, Tamilnadu leads the country in polluting the environment by emitting greener house gas. Also, there is an alarm in the depletion of conventional energy resources of Tamilnadu. It should not be satisfied with new promotional policies or projects but also, the progress of renewable energy utilization and installation must be monitored. To ensure continuous growth in renewable sector, more public awareness and Research and Development sector should be encouraged in Tamilnadu.

  • Achievements Tamil Nadu Electricity Board Is a Pioneer
    Achievements Tamil Nadu Electricity Board is a pioneer organization among the State Electricity Boards in India in promoting Renewable Energy Programme. Tamil Nadu is blessed with conducive natural metrological and topographical settings for wind power generation. Four passes namely Palghat pass, Shengottah pass, Aralvoimozhi pass and Cumbum Pass are endowed with heavy wind flows because of the tunneling effect during South west monsoon with an average wind speed of 18 to 22 Km/Hr. Initially during 1986, the first demo wind farm with 20 Nos. Wind Electric Generators each 55KW were erected at Mullaikadu in Tuticorin District, in association with Tamil Nadu Energy Development Agency (TEDA) under the aid of Ministry of Non Conventional Energy Sources (MNES), Government of India. Subsequently various windfarms were erected by TNEB at other places in Kayathar, Muppandal and Puliankulam areas including Kethanoor in Coimbatore. Totally 120 windmills were erected by TNEB from 1986 to 1993 totaling to a capacity of 19.355 MW. Based on the successful functioning of these demonstration wind farms, private developers had shown keen interest in this sector which has now led to an installed capacity of Private Wind Mills of about 7262 MW as on 31.05.2014 contributing to 34% of India’s total wind capacity . The Wind Electric Generators are installed in the Districts of Tirunelveli, Kanyakumari, Tuticorin, Ramnad, Coimbatore, Udumalpet, Dindigul, Theni, Tirupur and Erode. At present around 11,000 to 13,000 million units per annum are generated from the above windmills, contributing to about 14% of the yearly energy need of the State. Table - I Sl.
