INDIA’S POWER SCENARIO
India is the world’s six‐largest energy market and its percapita consumption is expected to increase from 606 KiloWatt Hour (kWH) in 2006 to 1 000 kWH by 2012Watt Hour (kWH) in 2006 to 1,000 kWH by 2012.
India’s total power generation capacity on July 31, 2006was 126,838 MW.
Of thi l b d it t d 68 988 MWOf this, coal‐based units generated 68,988 MW;hydropower generated 32,975 MW; gas based stationsgenerated 13,581 MW; renewable sources generatedgenerated 13,581 MW; renewable sources generated6,193 MW; nuclear power generated 3,900 MW anddiesel generator generated 1,201 MW.
India is in the solar belt of the world. High incidence of solar radiation,geographic latitude, and demand pattern of energy provide appropriateconditions for utilization of solar energy in the country.

Ministry of New and Renewable Energy
Government of India
In launching India’s National Action Plan on Climate Change on June 30, 2008, the Prime Minister of India, Dr.Manmohan Singh stated:
“Our vision is to make India’s economic development energy‐efficient. Over a period of time, we must pioneer a graduated shiftf i i i b d f il f l b dfrom economic activity based on fossil fuels to one based on non‐fossil fuels and from reliance on non‐renewable and depletingsources of energy to renewable sources of energy. In this strategy,f gy f gy gy,the sun occupies centre‐stage, as it should, being literally theoriginal source of all energy. We will pool our scientific, technical
d i l t l t ith ffi i t fi i l tand managerial talents, with sufficient financial resources, todevelop solar energy as a source of abundant energy to power oureconomy and to transform the lives of our people. Our success iny f f p pthis endeavour will change the face of India. It would also enableIndia to help change the destinies of people around the world.”
Jawaharlal NehruNational Solar Mission
• Under the National Action Plan on Climate Change 8Missions have been proposed. In the Prime Minister’s words‘Solar Mission was its centerpiece’‘Solar Mission was its centerpiece’.
• National Solar Mission is one of the major global initiatives• National Solar Mission is one of the major global initiativesin promotion of solar energy technologies.
• The Mission aims to achieve volume production, rapiddiffusion and deployment of solar technologies across the
t t l hi h l d t t d ti d i icountry at a scale which leads to cost reduction and aimingto achieve grid parity by 2022.

PANIIT PROJECT
• The Department of Science & Technology is supporting a project on SolarThermal Power generation, with participation from all IITs and the NationalTh l P C i A f hi j i d 1 MWThermal Power Corporation. As a part of this project, a storage‐ integrated 1 MWthermal power plant (average power for 8 hours/day) will be set‐up.
• This is based on direct steam generation using Fresnel and linear parabolic mirrorarrays for concentrating the solar energy Energy storage in the form of higharrays for concentrating the solar energy. Energy storage in the form of highpressure, high temperature steam will be carried out, in steam accumulators.This will be supplemented by sensible storage in the supporting blocks ofcollector tubes. To a smaller extent, storage in a cascade of molten salt andphase‐change materials will also be attempted.
• For the generation of high temperature steam, inverted cavity type solarcollectors with evacuated tubes will be employed. Special coatings will be
l d f i i l b i h lemployed for increasing solar energy absorption or to prevent heat losses.• A fully instrumented research facility will help in the monitoring of the plant
performance.Th l ill l i l d i i d l i• The plant will also include a reciprocating expander type solar power generationdevice for auxiliary power and a small scale solar refrigeration unit for theinstrumentation panels
