ENERGY SCENE IN INDIA
 India’s Energy Consumption is 12.6 million btu. India energy intensity is
much lower as compared to Japan, USA and Asia as a whole by 3.7, 1.55
and 1.47 times respectively (energy consumption compared to GDP).
 Anything tangible or intangible, that costs money is evaluated very
carefully and used equally carefully in India
 The per capita energy consumption figures are very low in spite of high rate
of development now taking place i.e. approx . 550 KWH per annum
 Only 52 GW of the 78.6 GW originally envisaged under the 11th Five Year
Plan that ended March 2012

The 12th Plan (2012-17) now aims for a capacity addition of
103.3 GW

It is estimated that India needs to have over 300 GW of energy
installation by 2017

Renewable energy is well positioned to play a critical role in
addressing this growing energy demand due to burdensome coal and
gas supplies denting capacity targets

Incentive fuelled to meet Energy Challenge
 Incentive-laden policies have fuelled growth in India's renewable energy
sector
 Renewable power has been particularly beneficial for an enormous,
over-populated country like India
 Wind energy capacity in India is fastest growing with a record 3,163
MW and in third place, behind China and the US
 Grid-connected solar capacity also surged from 18 MW in 2010 to 1GW
in 2012
 The growth of other renewable sources like Biomass power ,Small
Hydro and waste to Energy should also continue in the at steady pace
 RECE trading is expected to improve the returns for Renewable Energy
 Benefits to renewable energy projects such as no need for industrial
clearance, availability of loan, excise duty exemption, custom duty
concession, financial support to renewable energy’s R&D projects,
income tax holiday, accelerated depreciation, preferential tariffs, interest
and capital subsidies, energy buy-back and third party sale

Incentive fuelled for Solar PV Technology
 Promulgation of JNNMS and state Policies have paved the way for
development of solar energy in the country
 Significant facilitation extended by the central and state Govt. For
shaping India as solar manufacturing hub in world
 Taking cue of the present demand –supply situation in the
manufacturing space ,setting up of manufacturing bases looks real
significance and viable proposition

Areas for Potential Collaboration
Define and Improve Future Renewable Energy Options.
Accelerated deployment of alternative energy technologies:
Ensuring physical, economic, social and natural sciences research and basic
research challenges are addressed
Understanding future energy options:
Social, environmental and economic implications
Reducing energy consumption and demand:
Development of behavioural, market and technological advances informed by
a whole system understanding.
Building capacity:
Providing the skilled people to deliver new energy futures through the training
and development of new researchers, policy makers and business leaders.
Challenges:
Forecasting in Energy market and improved optimisation strategies for whole
system future energy infrastructure

The opportunity in Collaboration :PV Technology
Assessment of solar resource and site selection:
 Solar resource assessment play a key role as it helps for efficient out put of
a plant and minimise the site development cost
Selection of better PV Technology i.e. :
 Crystalline Silicon (Cr Si) and Thin Film Technologies A Si (Amorphous
Silicon), CdTe (Cadmium Telleride), CIGS (Copper Indium Gallium
diSelenide) or any alternate having impact on better efficiency and
performance for PV modules
Storage and Amenability to Grid Connectivity:
Less amenable to very large scale and wide spread grid connectivity due to
bottleneck in storage ; Improved Battery Storage Technologies
Ability to improve efficiency :
Optimisation of structure ,trackers ,inverters ,micro inverters
Improvisation and adoption of micro grid concept and mini grid concept
Focus on efficiency of Solar, Storage and Cost Reduction
