A generating system has two basic components, a turbine, which produces rotary motion and a generator, which convert s the rotational energy into electrical energy. A generator has ‘rotor’ which is rotated by a turbine and a ‘stator’ which has the sets of coils in which electricity is generated when the rotor rotates. The difference between various modes of production lies in the techniques used to generate steam, which in turn will rotate the turbine. Based on various modes of rotating the turbine, we can classify the modes of power generation in broadly four categories 1. Hydro Power Plant 2. Thermal Power Plant 3. Nuclear Power Plant 4. Renewable energy based Power Plants Before discussing the various types...

...Alternative Energy With the world economy growing at a fast pace, energy demand too has been witnessing a sharp rise in the past few decades, with demand mainly originating from the big developing economies of Asia, namely, India and China. Factors such as high population growth, growing urbanisation and changing lifestyles in these developing nations are behind the increase in demand for energy. According to International Energy Agency (IEA) estimates, during 1990-2008, while world population increased by around 27%, energy use increased by around 39%. Consequently, average per person consumption of energy has seen a rise of 10% for the same period. The year 2010 has seen a further increase of around 5% in the world energy consumption levels. Most of the countries in the world use coal, oil and natural gas as their primary sources of energy. Around 90% of the total global energy requirement is met through these non-renewable energy sources. This heavy reliance on fossil fuels poses certain major concerns. Most importantly, these sources are limited. So, it is only a matter of time before these resources are exhausted completely. Another important factor that works against the heavy use of fossil fuels is that they are detrimental to the environment. The use of fossil fuels leads to emission of greenhouse gases which causes global warming. Also, these fuels are a major source of air, water and soil pollution. All these factors have created a need for alternative energy sources...

Of Electrical Engg., JNU, Jaipur; Final Year, Electrical Engineering, JNU Jaipur; Final Year, Electrical Engineering, JNU, Jaipur ABSTRACT The present energy needs of the world are supplied by the drastic use of non-renewable sources of energy, which are mainly the fossil fuels or the nuclear fuels, which are no doubt very good, but will not last for ever, they will end very soon. By fossil fuels I am throwing light on coal, petroleum, natural gas, etc. which on combustion emits harmful gases such as carbon di oxide, carbon mono oxide which are harmful to the environment. Though the Renewable resources of energy which are the Solar Energy i.e. the energy from sun, Wind Energy, as the name suggests the energy from wind or the fast moving air, the Geothermal Energy i.e. the energy from the earth, energy generated from water known as hydro energy, biogas and many more. Which are no doubt very good energy sources and the qualities like everlasting and clean that is negligible pollution makes them the best in the lot. The present generation of energy is more from the non renewable resources which is bad for the nature and for the future also, thus we need to manage the use and organize the usage of both the resources so that they can be saved for the...

...Year-wise analysis of additionality Year 2006: In the year 2006 a total of 19 wind energy projects were registered out of which 14 were small scale projects. Small scale projects: Additionality of 3 small scale projects has been studied as a sample. These projects are: 1. Generation of electricity from 6.25 MW capacity wind mills by Sun-n-Sand Hotels Pvt. Ltd at Soda Mada Rajasthan 2. 3.75 MW Small Scale Grid Connected “Demonstration Wind Farm Project” at Chalkewadi, District Satara, State Mahararashtra 3. 10.6 MW wind farm at Village Badabagh, District Jaisalmer, Rajasthan. All the 3 projects demonstrated investment barrier in the additionality. The 6.25 MW and 10.6 MW project showed that the cost of power generation through wind is higher compared to that of coal and fuel oil, whereas. The 3.75 MW project has shown how due to non payment by Maharashtra state electricity board the project participants were not able to repay the loan (50 % of the total project cost). This has also been shown as a regulatory risk by the project proponent. The projects have demonstrated technology barrier faced due to poor penetration of wind energy and uncertainty in power generation through wind. The 6.25 MW project also faced technological barrier by using higher capacity of WTGs (1250 Kw) and other barriers like investment in power evacuation, unskilled manpower and lack of experience due to new technology. The 10.6 MW project in Rajasthan faced regulatory barriers because the policies...

...Kavethkar Green energy is the need of the hour to sustain our energy requirements. Green energy includes natural energetic processes that can be harnessed with little pollution. Anaerobic digestion, geothermal power, wind power, small-scale hydropower, solar energy, biomass power, tidal power, wave power, and some forms of nuclear power (ones which are able to "burn" nuclear waste through a process known as nuclear transmutation, such as an Integral Fast Reactor, and therefore belong in the "Green Energy" category). Some definitions may also include power derived from the incineration of waste. In this report we have discussed on various dimension of non renewable energy resources and its impact on our environment. It is aptly said that “The Earth has enough to satisfy the Need but not the Greed of the Humans” We have gone beyond boundaries, now if we look back the results of our greed is appalling for us. The below sections show the various examples of non renewable energy sector- Electricity Sector in India The electricity sector in India had an installed capacity of 250.256 was of end July 2014. Out of which considerable amount, approx. 69.12% (172.986 GW), is generated from non-renewable energy source. India became the world's third largest producer of electricity in the year 2013 with 4.8% global share in electricity generation surpassing Japan and Russia. On 31st May 2014, in India, there was installation of Wind Power Capacity Project. Non-Renewable Energy Resources Non-renewable...

...SUMMARY The total installed capacity in India is 1,50,000MW but we are facing a power deficit of around 10%. The per capita power consumption is 665 kWh and this figure is steadily increasing. To meet this increasing demand and reduce the current peak shortage, the Government has planned to double the existing capacity to 3,00,000MW over the next decade (2010-20). BIOMASS POWER SCENARIO India has a biomass availability of 150 million MT per annum which gives us a potential to install 16,000MW of biomass based power plants. But only 600MW is installed and another 600MW is under implementation. To realise this huge potential we need an investment of Rs.1,00,000 crore. Some reasons for lack of investments in Biomass sector are: It costs around Rs.6cr/MW for a Biomass plant whereas a thermal plant requires only about Rs.4.5cr/MW. Availability of Biomass fuel with high calorific value (> 4000kcal/kg) PROMOTIONAL INCENTIVES Accelerated Depreciation 80% in first year (Boiler and Turbine). Income Tax Holiday under Section 80 1A for 10 years. Concessional import duty; excise duty exemptions on equipments & components required for initial setting of the project. Sales tax exemption in some states. IREDA provides loans for biomass power projects. Preferential Tariff in 14 States. INVESTMENTS India and Germany have signed a Rs.140 crore deal to install 7 Biomass projects in India. During the 11th Plan period, the Government of India aims to add 500MW capacity through...

...Experience with Promotion of Renewable Energy: Successes and Lessons Learned Parliamentarian Forum on Energy Legislation and Sustainable Development Cape Town, South Africa 5-7 October, 2005 Richard L. Ottinger[?] Abstract: Renewable energy is becoming economic in all markets as its rapid growth results in more competitive prices. It is particularly appropriate and increasingly being adopted for providing electric power services to rural areas in developing countries unlikely to be served by grid electricity. Policies needed to implement renewable energy systems in rural areas are discussed in this paper. Most prominent are removal of subsidies to traditional energy primarily benefiting the wealthiest; involving the local populace in decision making; educating financial institutions about the economics of investing in renewable energy systems and creating investment vehicles appropriate to financing them in poor localities; training personnel on management, maintenance and drafting contracts; requiring vendor provision of maintenance and parts; and effective regulation and oversight of system management and financing. I. Introduction The recent sharp increases in the prices of oil, natural gas, uranium and coal underline the importance for all countries to focus on development of alternative energy resources. For developing countries, these price increases can have ruinous economic consequences; for many countries already plagued by poverty this means...
