Thorium-Utilisation Pathways for India
- For India, thorium-based nuclear power has been the endgame, and will form the final phase of the three-stage Indian nuclear programme for energy security developed by Dr Homi J. Bhabha in the 1950s. This report assesses strategies for thorium adoption in the Indian nuclear power sector.
Rectangular Spiral Inspired Approach for Estimating Area of Solar Photovoltaic Plants in India
This work proposes a method which can provide a rational area estimate of a PV plant factoring sizing considerations from electrical, maintenance, and shading aspects.

Charging up for Electric Mobility
The future of EVs looks bright in India. As the technology matures, India must prepare itself to make the most of this opportunity to move towards a cleaner and greener future.
Long-term energy system planning considering short-term operational constraints
-
Long-term planning models give an insight into possible energy scenarios and do not examine technologies in detail.
-
Renewable energy sources have spatial and temporal intermittency that causes challenges for short-term system operations.
-
Including operational details of generators directly in a planning model reduces intricacy of handling separate models.
-
Operational constraints increase usage of conventional generators and reduce overall capacity needs in planning model.
