  1. Emerging Solar Market in India Pranav R. Mehta Chairman Solar Energy Association of Gujarat Solar Market in India, 2012 Seminar Hotel Hyatt Regency, New Delhi, India 29th August, 2012 New Delhi, India

  2. JNNSM targets 20,000 MW Solar generation capacity in India by 2020 • Some of us target the Solar Generation capacity at 55,000 MWs by 2031-32

  3. President Dr. APJ Abdul Kalam on Renewable Energy April 2006

  4. The most significant aspect, would be that power generated through renewable technologies has to be increased to 25% against the present 5%. • It would be evident that for true energy independence a major shift in the structure of energy sources from fossil to renewable energy sources is mandated.

  5. Solar Energy • Solar energy in particular requires unique, massive applications in the agricultural sector, where farmers need electricity exclusively in the day time. This could be the primary demand driver for solar energy. • We also need to embark on a program in solar energy systems and technologies for both large, centralized applications as well as small, decentralized requirements, concurrently, for applications in both rural and urban areas.

  6. Large scale solar energy farms of 100’s of MW capacity in certain number could contribute around 55,000 MW

  7. Carbon Nano Tube (CNT) based PV cell expected to give a high efficiency of 50% as against the present less than 25% for conventional PV cells. Research mission required. • “Rural household solar mission” which will provide LED based Nano crystal lighting system through small solar PV power plants to 70 million rural households using kerosene.

  8. JNNSM – Phase 2 • 3000 MW capacity to be supported by the Government of India • Additional 6000 MW is envisaged through Solar RPO requirement • Requirement of solar power capacity by 2017 is estimated to be about 10000 MW.

  9. Mandatory Solar RPO Mechanism • The Solar RPO has to begin with .25 % of the energy procured reaching 3% by 2022 • Solar Power required to meet Solar RPOs (MW) • 2011-12 2012-13 2013-14 2014-15 1465 3018 4659 6387 2015 –16 2016 –17 8204 10109 • 2015-16 • 2016-17 • 1465 • 3018 • 4659 • 6387 • 8204 • 10109

  10. Some views of the Solar Park

  11. Triumph

  12. Successful Commissioning • Despite the difficulties and challenges faced, ultimately success was achieved and a total capacity of 605 MW was commissioned by March, 2012 and was dedicated to the nation by the Chief Minister of Gujarat on 19th April, 2012 • The latest figure of commissioned solar projects as of yesterday i.e. 25th April 2012 is 629 MW for Gujarat.

  18. Success Attributed to • The success of 629 MW of Solar Power in 15 months can be attributed to : • Excellent Enabling provisions of Gujarat solar Policy 2009 and Proactive role of the State Govt. • Whole hearted support received from the GOG agencies like GEDA, GUVNL, GPCL, GETCO etc. • Solar Developers bringing large investment of Rs. 10,000 Cr [ 2.0 Bn], state of art technologies, undertaking risk, and making all out effort pulling no stops in meting the deadline

  19. SardarSarovar Canal Solar Pilot Plant of 1MW Under Construction

  20. SardarSarovar Canal Solar Pilot Plant of 1MW

  21. Sheffler Parabolic Dish manufactured in Gujarat 32 Sq.m Parabola

  22. Thermic Fluid Heating Application For Indian Army at Leh

  23. Hot Water System at B.S. Paper, Ludhiana

  24. Future Solar Dreams • 5 more Solar Cities and Solar Roof Tops planned at Surat, Rajkot, Bhavnagar, Jamnagar etc. • More Canal based Solar Plants • Affordable small power units for every household and Farm

  25. More Potential Areas for Solar Energy • Much improved solar energy storage • Solar Desalination Plants • Solar Green Buildings • Solar and Wind Hybrid • Hydrogen through solar energy

  26. Constraints to be overcome for Converting Future Solar Dreams to Reality • Land Availability – Solar Park initiative of Gujarat needs to be replicated. Rajasthan is already doing this. • Grid Evacuation to be strengthened • Finance to be made available at affordable rates – priority sector lending. • Govt. support to continue – we should be together in converting solar Dream into Reality. • Higher Emphasis on R&D

  27. Drivers for Future Solar Dreams to Reality • RPO Enforcement – including for the Captive Power Plants • REC Projects to be Bankable – Innovative Ideas • Higher Emphasis on Off Grid as well • A good admix of small and big projects

  28. These Power Plants in space are called Solar Power Satellites or “Solar Sats” They were first designed by NASA 30 years ago These Power Plants in space are called Solar Power Satellites or “Solar Sats” They were first designed by NASA 30 years ago

  29. Rotating, Partial Gravity Space Island Station Will Comfortably Hold Several Hundred Solar Panels and Several Occupants

  30. Space Solar Plans • Space Island Group (SIG) has been developing a large financial fund with investors in Europe and China for the past three years. • SIG will deploy several 3-5 MW solar power satellite demonstrators into low Earth orbit in 2015 and 2016. SIG will also install a total of up to 20 receiving antennas in various nations around the planet, in exchange for participation fees. • These demo satellites and antennas will allow these nations to evaluate the safety and performance of this energy source in a variety of local environments.

  31. Space Solar Plans • Between 2018 and 2050, SIG will assemble in orbit a total of 1,000 of these large solar sats. • The energy for these sats will be sold in advance at a fixed, guaranteed price of 5 Cents per kwh. • Contract preference will be given to nations who participated in the solar sat demonstrations. • SIG's principal target market for this energy is the Middle East, India, China, Japan and other nations who will face energy shortages during this time period.

  32. Converting Solar Dreams to Reality • A very important step converting the solar Dream into reality will be : “ Accord the same priority as Space and Nuclear Programs to Solar Sector”

  33. Converting Solar Dream to Reality Increase the Solar Energy Budget to 5 times the present Budget – until Grid Parity is achieved

  34. I am an eternal optimist and believe in the slogan “ Dreams Come True”

  35. Thank You
