The scheme for development of Solar Parks and Ultra Mega Solar Power Projects was rolled out in 12.12.2014. The capacity of the solar park scheme was enhanced from 20,000 MW to 40,000 MW on 21.3.2017 to set up at least 50 solar parks. The time line of the scheme is extended till 2023 – 24.
Solar energy is most secure out of
all source of energy and it is abundantly available. Only a small fraction of
total incident solar energy can meet the entire country’s power demand
(Incident solar radiation refers to solar radiation falling perpendicular on a surface having an angle of 90 degree to the surface)
Wind is intermittent and site-specific energy resource therefore wind resource assessment is essential for selection of potential sites. The national institute of wind energy (NIWE) has installed over 800 wind monitoring stational all over India, at height of 50 m, 80 m and 100 m above the ground level. The India’s gross wind power potential above 100 m from ground level is 302 GW.
The India is rapidly growing country with population of 1.3 billion. It has a massive demand of energy. At the time of independence, power deficit in India. Over seven decades, efforts to make India energy independent is continued. Today, we have power surplus nation with total installed electrical capacity over 4 Lakh MW.
In this post, incentive scheme for electrolyser manufacturers, implementation agency, local value addition, incentive on the basis of make in India, incentive criteria, bidding and selection process is given. The union cabinet has approved the national green hydrogen mission with total outlay of Rs 19,774 crore up to FY 2029 – 30.
In this post, wind solar hybrid policy of India is given. India has set up target of 175 GW of installed capacity from renewable energy by 2022 in which includes 100 GW of solar and 60 GW of wind power capacity. India’s total renewable power installed capacity was 70 GW at the end of 2017-18.
In this post, Incentive for Green
Hydrogen Production for qualified bidders are given. The government allocation
Rs. 13,050 crore for green hydrogen production mode 1 incentive scheme.
