Introduction

Energy is a major input for overall socio-economic development of any


society

Global electrical energy demand is steadily rising and consequently there is


a demand to increase the power generation capacity.

The prices of the fossil fuels steeply increasing and increasing pollution.

Renewable sources of energy are expected to play a key role.

Significant percentage of the required energy can be based on the


renewable energy resources.

GOVERNMENT RENEWABLE ENERGY TARGETS
India has an ambitious target of achieving 175 GW of energy from renewable
sources by 2022 - 100GW through solar power, 60 GW from wind power.
India set a target of producing the energy capacity through non-fossil fuels to
500 GW; Fulfil 50% of its energy requirement from renewable sources.
Setup a solar and wind power generation monitoring system through a web-
based online system.
The government has announced that no new coal-based capacity addition
between 2017 and 2022.
CEA Study has revealed that the planning model selects the battery energy
storage system from the year 2027-28 onwards and a Battery Energy Storage
capacity of 27,000 MW/108,000 MWh (4-hour storage) is projected to be part
of the installed capacity in 2029-30. 10

India, pledge at the COP26 Climate Summit at Glasgow, which is the third
largest emitter of carbon dioxide announced a target of 2070 for ‘net zero
emission’.
India, UK unveil 1st global initiative for interconnected solar grids at COP26.
First international network of global interconnected solar power grids, known
as the Green Grids Initiative – One Sun One World One Grid (GGI-OSOWOG). It
aims to harness solar energy wherever the sun is shining, ensuring that
generated electricity flows to areas that need it most. At a global level, almost
2600 GW of interconnection capacity may be possible up to 2050.
The coal crisis was triggered in Oct 2021 as a post-pandemic rebound in
industrial activity with added demand for electricity, also the heavy rain in the
month of Aug-Sept led to the lower production from coal mines.

•Solar Tariffs Drop to a new low of Rs 1.99/kWh in Latest Gujarat Auction: The latest
round of auctions for 500 MW worth of solar projects in Gujarat has seen tariffs drop to a
new low of Rs 1.99/kWh in India, in Dec2020.

•30 GW Wind and Solar Park inaugurated in Gujarat This Month: : world’s
largest renewable solar and wind energy park in Gujarat’s Kutch inaugurated, on
December 15, 2020..

•EVs Could Account for 43% of Total Vehicle Sales in India by 2030: A new study by the
CEEW – Centre for Energy Finance (CEF) has analysed segment-wise electric vehicle (EV)
sales, battery requirements, public charging infrastructure necessary, and the investments
needed until 2030 to support India’s EV transition.
