  • 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.
