EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Introduction Energy and more notably electrical energy has been acknowledged as the principal catalyst for economic and social growth of any society and country. Consumption of electrical energy has been considered as a yardstick for economic growth universally. The electricity sector in India had an installed capacity of 255.012 GW as of end November 2014 and generated around 703.1 BU for the period April - November 2014. India became the world's third largest producer of electricity in the year 2013 with 4.8% global share in electricity generation surpassing Japan and Russia. Renewable Power plants constituted 28.43% of total installed capacity and Non-Renewable Power Plants constituted the remaining 71.57%. India generated around 967 TWh (967,150.32 GWh) of electricity (excluding electricity generated from renewable and captive power plants) during the 2013–14 fiscal. The total annual generation of electricity from all types of sources was 1102.9 TeraWatt-hours (TWh) in 2013. As of March 2013, the per capita total electricity consumption in India was 917.2 kWh. The per capita average annual domestic electricity consumption in India in 2009 was 96 kWh in rural areas and 288 kWh in urban areas for those with access to electricity in contrast to the worldwide per capita annual average of 2,600 kWh and 6,200 kWh in the European Union. Electric energy consumption in agriculture is highest (18%) in India.

  • How Do They Add to the Disaster Potential in Uttarakhand?
    South Asia Network on Dams, Rivers and People Uttarakhand: Existing, under construction and proposed Hydropower Projects: How do they add to the disaster potential in Uttarakhand? As Uttarakhand faced unprecedented flood disaster and as the issue of contribution of hydropower projects in this disaster was debated, one question for which there was no clear answer is, how many hydropower projects are there in various river basins of Uttarakhand? How many of them are operating hydropower projects, how many are under construction and how many more are planned? How projects are large (over 25 MW installed capacity), small (1-25 MW) and mini-mirco (less than 1 MW installed capacity) in various basins at various stages. This document tries to give a picture of the status of various hydropower projects in various sub basins in Uttarakhand, giving a break up of projects at various stages. River Basins in Uttarakhand Entire Uttarakhand is Uttarakhand has 98 operating hydropower part of larger Ganga basin. The Ganga River is a projects (all sizes) with combined capacity trans-boundary river of India and Bangladesh. The close to 3600 MW. However, out of this 2,525 km long river rises in the western Himalayas capacity, about 1800 MW is in central sector in the Indian state of Uttarakhand, and flows south and 503 MW in private sector, making it and east through the Gangetic Plain of North India into Bangladesh, where it empties into the Bay of uncertain how much power from these Bengal. The Ganga begins at the confluence of the projects the state will get.

  • Estimation of Paleo-Discharge of the Lost Saraswati River, North West India
    EGU2020-21212 https://doi.org/10.5194/egusphere-egu2020-21212 EGU General Assembly 2020 © Author(s) 2021. This work is distributed under the Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 License. Estimation of paleo-discharge of the lost Saraswati River, north west India Zafar Beg, Kumar Gaurav, and Sampat Kumar Tandon Indian Institute of Science Education and Research Bhopal, Earth and Environment Sciences, India ([email protected], [email protected], [email protected] ) The lost Saraswati has been described as a large perennial river which was 'lost' in the desert towards the end of the 'Indus-Saraswati civilisation'. It has been suggested that this paleo river flowed in the Sutlej-Yamuna interfluve, parallel to the present-day Indus River. Today, in this interfluve an ephemeral river- the Ghaggar flows along the abandoned course of the ‘lost’ Saraswati River. We examine the hypothesis given by Yashpal et al. (1980) that two Himalayan-fed rivers Sutlej and Yamuna were the tributaries of the lost Saraswati River, and constituted the bulk of its paleo-discharge. Subsequently, the recognition of the occurrence of thick fluvial sand bodies in the subsurface and the presence of a large number of Harappan sites in the interfluve region have been used to suggest that the Saraswati River was a large perennial river. Further, the wider course of about 4-7 km recognised from satellite imagery of Ghaggar-Hakra belt in between Suratgarh and Anupgarh in the Thar strengthens this hypothesis. In this study, we have developed a methodology to estimate the paleo-discharge and paleo- width of the lost Saraswati River.

  • Uttarakhand Flash Flood
    Uttarakhand Flash Flood drishtiias.com/printpdf/uttarakhand-flash-flood Why in News Recently, a glacial break in the Tapovan-Reni area of Chamoli District of Uttarakhand led to massive Flash Flood in Dhauli Ganga and Alaknanda Rivers, damaging houses and the nearby Rishiganga power project. In June 2013, flash floods in Uttarakhand wiped out settlements and took lives. Key Points Cause of Flash Flood in Uttarakhand: It occurred in river Rishi Ganga due to the falling of a portion of Nanda Devi glacier in the river which exponentially increased the volume of water. Rishiganga meets Dhauli Ganga near Raini. So Dhauli Ganga also got flooded. Major Power Projects Affected: Rishi Ganga Power Project: It is a privately owned 130MW project. Tapovan Vishnugad Hydropower Project on the Dhauliganga: It was a 520 MW run-of-river hydroelectric project being constructed on Dhauliganga River. Several other projects on the Alaknanda and Bhagirathi river basins in northwestern Uttarakhand have also been impacted by the flood. 1/4 Flash Floods: About: These are sudden surges in water levels generally during or following an intense spell of rain. These are highly localised events of short duration with a very high peak and usually have less than six hours between the occurrence of the rainfall and peak flood. The flood situation worsens in the presence of choked drainage lines or encroachments obstructing the natural flow of water. Causes: It may be caused by heavy rain associated with a severe thunderstorm, hurricane, tropical storm, or meltwater from ice or snow flowing over ice sheets or snowfields. Flash Floods can also occur due to Dam or Levee Breaks, and/or Mudslides (Debris Flow).
