RECs (Renewable Energy Certificates) are expected to become the currency of renewable energy markets in a big way as they are flexible and not subject to geographic and physical limitations.
A tremor ran through the cutting- edge electric car industry last month. Mathieu Tenenbaum, working with French automaker Renault, was just another faceless name till then. But one espionage story that hit the newsstands made him infamous in a single stroke.
One of the objectives of Jammu and Kashmir Energy Development Agency (JAKEDA) is to promote and implement projects aimed at
meeting the energy requirements of remote and unelectrified areas of the State by harnessing new and renewable sources of energy.
MNRE (Ministry of New and Renewable Energy, Govt of India) has sponsored a R&D project to ERDA. As part of this project, a 2 x 5 kW wind turbine is installed and integrated with water electrolyser. Complete demonstration system is expected to be ready soon. This demonstration project is undertaken to validate the feasibility of this concept.
Indian renewable energy market has come a long way from its initial era of sizable government subsidies, tax benefits, feed-in tariffs and various other support schemes being practiced since 1980s and creating localized markets for renewable energy. With the emergence of REC mechanism, a national level market platform would be available for RE generators even though they are selling electricity in their local region.
Moving from 20% to 50% of wind power calls for need for improved wind power forecast and optimal reserve capacities, strong price signal to wind energy generator against deviation from forecast and strong transmission grid. Therefore wind energy developers have to come forward with the developing infrastructure for forecasting wind energy and make power more grid friendly to accomodate more wind energy in the states.
Generating renewable energy may be easier than deploying it. Planners and utility managers in India face various challenges in their attempts to integrate renewable energy with the existing grid.
On 11 January 2010 India launched the Jawaharlal Nehru National Solar Mission (JNNSM), for development and deployment of solar energy technologies in the country. The immediate aim of the Solar Mission is to focus on setting up an enabling environment for solar technology penetration in the country both at a centralised and decentralised level.
A study commissioned by the German government aims to show how wind power will affect red kites, white-tailed eagles, and Montagu's harriers in the future. Even not mowing the grass around tower bases would help, ornithologists say.
