Re-assessment of India’s On-shore Wind Power Potential
Till recently, the on-shore wind power potential in India was officially estimated to be 102 GW at a hub height of 80 m. About 26 GW of this potential has been installed in the country. However, there are multiple independent reassessment studies in the public domain that estimate the potential to be much higher. This is due to variations in assumptions and methodologies used.

Effect of Module Reliability on Techno-Economics of a Utility-Scale Solar Photovoltaic Plant in India
With increasing contribution of solar PV based systems in our energy mix, it is crucial to understand their vulnerabilities. Various factors can affect the performance of PV systems. In this context, CSTEP explores questions such as: What is the effect of standard module degradation on plant techno-economics, for locations spread across different climate zones? What is the permissible rate of annual module degradation such that the plant remains financially viable? What is the effect of the cleaning cycle on plant techno-economics (via soiling losses)?
