EXECUTIVE SUMMARY

TTK Prestige has a manufacturing unit in Myleripalayam near Coimbatore.

The factory has a limited sanctioned load of 490KVA from TNEB while the peak

connected load is 810KVA. The additional power is currently being met by a set

of 2 x 320KVA & 1 x 1010KVA Diesel Generators. With the cost of diesel rising

rapidly, the company is planning to install a solar power plant that will power

100 KW load during sunny period with battery back up so as to minimize the

use of at least one 320KVA DG and get considerable savings on diesel costs.

This DPR provides technical details and overall costs/calculation for the

feasibility of the project. The proposed solution will provide solar power as a

standalone off-grid solution to power 100 KW load of the factory during sunny

INTRODUCTION

Power is a vital input for economic development and sustenance of modern

economy. However, providing adequate and clean power to face the ever-

growing environmental degradation has been a great challenge of the current

century. Renewable energy does not pollute the environment; the way burning

of fossil fuels does. Renewable energy sources are limitless and will not be

exhausted though fossil fuel will be gradually exhausted in course of time.

The financial cost of Renewable energy applications is not always cheap but if

the environmental costs of using fossil are accounted for, renewable energy

wins hands-down. There are also indirect savings on health costs as there

are no harmful emissions.

India is a tropical country and has abundant Solar Isolation throughout the

country for most part of the year. Since the seasonal variation is marginal

solar energy can be harnessed economically throughout the year.

Shortage of power is a critical problem faced by Indian industries, and with the

Indian industry growing at a hectic pace, this deficit is even more harmful.

Major industries are energy intensive in nature and thus power costs form the

most critical cost component.

Many large companies have resorted to having their own captive power plants.

Many industries rely to a large extent on diesel for additional power. With the

cost of diesel increasing rapidly, it is becoming economically unviable to

continue to run on diesel generators. With the prices of Solar PV becoming

attractive, several industries are considering solar energy to replace their diesel

generators.

In Summary, the benefits of using solar PV are:

Solar power will reduce the cost of production as it is cheaper than

diesel with a payback of around 2.26 years.

Solar power will augment the needs of peak power needs of the factory

Incentives are available from the Government for setting up solar power

plants like Subsidy, Accelerated Depreciation & Renewable Energy

Certificates

Solar power will help in meeting the Solar Purchas Obligation of the

TN state government.

Power from the sun is clean, silent, limitless and free

Photovoltaic process release no CO2, SO2 or NO2 gases which are

normally associated with burning finite fossil fuel reserves and do not

contribute to global warming

Photovoltaic’s are now a proven technology which is inherently

safe as opposed to other fossil fuel based electricity generating

technologies

Increase the grid reliability (i.e. voltage and frequency)

Reduce the transmission line losses

MANAGEMENT OBJECTIVES FOR INSTALLING SOLAR POWER

HIGH COST OF RUNNING DIESEL GENERATORS IMPACTING

BOTTOM LINE

TTK Prestige has a sanctioned load of 490 KVA while the connected load is as

high as 810KVA. In order to overcome the demand the factory is using a set of

2 x 320KVA & 1 x 1010KVA Diesel Generators. Over the last 10 years diesel

prices have increased by 158% at a compound rate of approximately 16% per

annum. With diesel prices becoming deregulated, the cost of using diesel is

expected to go up rapidly. At current bulk purchase prices, the cost of using

diesel is around Rs. 20 per unit. At this cost the payback by using solar to

replace DG is very attractive at around 2.26 years.

The chart below depicts the increase in retail price of diesel over the last

decade. Ref: www.mypetrolprice.com

SOLAR PURCHASE OBLIGATION

In its recent Policy statement TN Government has introduced a Solar Purchase

Obligation of 6% for all HT consumers with effect from Jan 2014. The

obligated consumers may fulfill the SPO by:

Generating captive solar power in TN equivalent or more than their SPO

Buying equivalent to or more than their SPO from other third party

developers in TN

Buying RECs generated by solar projects in TN

Purchasing power from TANGEDCO at Solar Tariff

ENVIRONMENTAL CONCERNS

The company policy is to ensure healthy, safe and secure environment for its

employees. The Green Energy produced by solar power will not only help the

company in meeting its energy demands but would also help in meeting

international standards.

DEMAND ANALYSIS & JUSTIFICATION OF THE PROJECT

SOLAR POWER POTENTIAL IN INDIA

India is located in a sunny belt of the earth, receiving abundant radiant energy

from the sun. The daily average global radiation is around 5.0 kWh/m2 in north-

eastern and hilly areas to about 7.0 kWh/m2 in western regions and hot dessert areas

with the sunshine hours ranging between 2300 and 3200 per year. In most parts of

India, clear sunny weather is experienced for 250 to 300 days a year. The annual global

radiation varies from 1600 to 2200 kWh/m2.

Page 13 of 31

PROJECT LOCATION IN TAMILNADU

Tamilnadu has high solar insolation (5.6 to 6.0 kWh/sq mt) with more than

300 clear sunny days in a year. With substantial solar insolation and declining

solar power costs there is a remarkable opportunity in the solar energy domain.

consumes around 40 liters per hour which is equivalent to Rs. 83.5 Lakhs per

year. As this solution is designed to replace the 320DG for most of the year, we

have taken this annual cost of diesel for 320KVA DG for calculating the

payback.

Page 16 of 31

ESTIMATED SOLAR POWER GENERATION FROM THE PROPOSED

PLANTS

As per the historical data available with Central Energy Regulatory

Commission (CERC) of India solar power plants based in India have

demonstrated a PLF of 19%. At 19% PLF the annual solar power generation for

100KW solar plant is 166 MWh.

PAYBACK ANALYSIS

ASSUMPTIONS

As the solution is primarily designed to avoid running the 320KVA DG,

the payback of the solution is based on comparing the solar costs with

the diesel cost

Base Price of diesel is taken at Rs. 60/liter which is the current market

price for bulk consumers

Diesel cost is increased by 10% every year as per historical data given

above.

Maintenance of Diesel Generator (as given by the company managers)

has been taken at Rs. 0.50/kWH.

Based on the bills of the last 6 months, the average cost of electricity

from TNEB is Rs. 7.5/unit

Last year the electricity prices were increases by average 37%. TN

government is likely to increase the price of electricity on an annual basis

to tide over the financial crisis of TNEB. On a conservative basis, it is

assumed that electricity price will increase by 8% to 10% per year over

the coming few years.

SOLUTION DESIGN FOR 100KW OFF GRID SOLAR SYSTEM

Solar Photovoltaic power generator consists of solar modules in series and

parallel connections; these convert solar radiations into DC electrical power at

the predetermined range of Voltages whenever sufficient solar radiation is

available. The individual crystalline solar cells are connected together in

module (in series connection), which are hermetically sealed to survive in

rugged weather conditions and ensures optimum performance during its long

life. In order to achieve a higher system voltage, modules are installed in a row

arrangement, called a string. A higher system voltage has the advantage of

lesser installation work, higher efficiency of the entire plant and usage of

smaller cross section cables. Calculated no. of strings is connected in parallel

by cables in Junction Boxes. These junction boxes not only act as a

junction point but also monitor each string output which will be fed to the

central monitoring and analysis system. Outputs from many such junction

boxes are connected in parallel in the Main Combiner Box (MCB). This Main

Combiner Box output is fed to the Off Grid Inverter to invert solar

generated DC power in to conventional 3 phase AC power. O f f Grid

Inverter operate on MPPT (Maximum power point tracking) mode to ensure

maximum output from the solar generators at di f f erent ambien t

conditions. These inverters use higher system voltages to reach very high

efficiency of 98%. Furthermore, installations can be expanded with additions

of more modules without problems.
