Transmission and Grid Planning

Steel and cement have become engineering workhorses for the industrial world. They may lack the glamour one perceives in novel materials, but they provide the wherewithal for building a prosperous and equitable industrial world.

Addressing the challenges of RE manufacturing in India: Horizon 2032

Due to stochastic nature of wind distribution, wind power output comes with unscheduled changes called ramp events. In this paper, a semi-analytical approach is considered to analyze the distribution of ramp events. A simple empirical equation is derived based on the probability of wind ramp events considering the stochastic nature of wind power distribution for the Indian state of Karnataka.

The power curve of a wind turbine grows exponentially as a function of wind-velocity if the measured wind-velocity varies between the cut-in velocity and the rated velocity In this study, we propose an empirical, two-parameter explicit model of the power curve for a wind turbine.

The overall goal of the off-grid guidelines of the JNNSM is to achieve wider dissemination of solar
technology, and a generous capital subsidy of up to 90% is offered for rural applications Even so,
there are several bottlenecks to large-scale dissemination Primarily, the techno-economics,
financing and institutional mechanisms of several solar applications are not well understood
Therefore, these form a focus of this study In addition, this study looks at the Government of India’s

The objective of this study has been to model the Energy Efficiency (EE) of the Indian cement industry, in the context of the diversity and the challenges in operating conditions, in order to provide analysis and insights for the successful implementation of PAT.

Recently a simple explicit model was introduced to represent the J–V characteristics of an illuminated solar cell with parasitic resistances and bias dependent photocurrent as j = (1 − vm)/(1 + αv), here the normalized voltage, v and normalized current density j can be represented as v = V/Voc and j = J/Jsc respectively, whereVoc is the open circuit voltage and Jsc is the short circuit current density. The model is an equivalent rational function form and useful for design, characterization and calculation of maximum power point voltage.

This paper aims to inform the tariff setting process for wind resource in Karnataka, so that investments in wind infrastructure can be incentivized taking into consideration resource variations. This work presents a range of levelized tariffs for the on-shore wind potential of the state. The range is a result of the variation in capacity utilization factors estimated for various classes of Wind Power Density (WPD) in the state, for waste and scrub forest land categories, at 80 m and 100 m hub heights.

This publication enlighten the reader about how ectricity can be produced using the rice husk at Ghana.Developing countries, especially in Sub-Saharan Africa, face large challenges to achieve universal electrification Using the case of Ghana, this study explores the role that rice residues can play to help developing countries meet their electrification needs In Ghana, Levelised Electricity Costs (LEC) of a grid-connected 5 MWe straw combustion plant ranged between 116 and 130 UScents/kWh, based on region of implementation .Rice straw combustion is a viable grid-connected option in all regi

Keeping in view India’s recent international commitment to expand the share of renewable electricity to 40%
