New policy of solar powered pumps being formulated



NEW DELHI,
The government is in the process of formulating a new scheme for solar pumps to promote standalone solar off-grid pumps with an objective of replacing existing diesel pump sets.


The meeting focused on the functioning of NHPC and implementation of the Solar Rooftop Programme and the Solar Pumps Programme.

Speaking at the meeting, Miniser of State (Independent Charge) for Power and Renewable Energy, RK Singh said that Hydro projects have relatively longer useful plant life and help in providing inexpensive power in long term and is ideal for meeting peaking load and as a spinning reserve.

Also the event, Chairman and Managing Director at NHPC Limited, Balraj Joshi, said that they are closer to completing 14,000.5 MW of hydro, solar and thermal projects.

An official statement said that out of these, 3 hydro projects with a capacity of 3130 MW and one solar project of 50 MW in Tamil Nadu are under construction. One hydro project of 1000 MW of a JV Company, CVPPL, has got clearance from the Cabinet Committee on Economic Affairs and re-tendering is under finalisation.

This is in addition to commissioning of 22 projects of 6691.2 MW (including joint ventures), and 14 projects of 9167.5 MW are at various stages of clearances for their implementation.

Six hydro projects of 553 MW are in the pipeline for preparation of feasibility report and another 3 hydro projects of 805 MW are on anvil.

For the first time in the sultanate, solar energy is being harnessed to pump water from a well that will supply water to 80 homes in Samail in Dakhliyah governorate. Eng Abdullah bin Hamoud al Husseini, head of the operation department at the Public Authority for Electricity and Water (PAEW) in Samail said, “We used solar energy for the first time to operate a well in Wadi Sijani in Samail because the well location does not have access to electricity supply points.”

The technology will help 80 homes in Al Sinsila and Wadi Sijani. “The solar water pumping system will pump water from the wells and provide abundant water to these houses,” said Husseini. He said the authority has installed 40 solar panels.

“We have installed 40 solar panels with a productive capacity of 10kWh which will help produce 2,200 gallons of water per hour. Water is pumped into the tanks of Wadi Sijani. A diesel generator has also been installed in case the panels stop working. The system was installed in six weeks.”

Kindergarten students at Ranson Elementary School planted vegetables in a garden on school property with a little help from Engineers Without Borders co-founder Roger Either and his“Lil Sprout” solar water pump.

“We’re going to plant lettuce. On Monday or Tuesday or Wednesday when you come here and look you’ll see little shoots coming out,” Either said to a group of students during the demonstration.

“I am going to make my garden so it faces south. The most sun will get on your garden as the sun goes from the east to west. We need water and we’re going to use the sun to make a pump (send) water and then we’re going to water each row,” Either said.

The children helped plant and water the new crop. “That’s what we’re trying to do and get the kids kind of excited about gardening and nutrition,” Shepherd University SNAP ED program Assistant Director Emma Barr said. She was on hand to help teach children about healthy eating choices.

After making the rows for planting in the large raised garden bed and planting the seeds, the solar pump was set up.

“We are using solar to pump this water,” Either said.
“There’s no better way than having the kids involved from planting it to harvesting it, to eating it,”Teacher and school coordinator for wellness committee chair Ann Miller said.
It was Miller’s idea to bring the program into the school. An area was selected and raised beds were installed. Now she says she has even bigger plans. “We’re going to expand the garden. This is permanent. We have two more rectangular gardens coming by spring and SNAP is offering to help us to purchase more,” Miller said.

The U.S. Department of Agricutlure, which funds part of Barr’s work, has information about benefits of better education on food choices. “They can do this at home. We’re trying to get the kids excited about gardening so then they go home and say ‘we tried a tomato at school today. Can we grow these at home?’ We (teach) nutrition and things with them as well using Shepherd University students,” Barr said.

“A lot of the parents I talked to didn’t know that you use SNAP dollars at farmer’s markets and you can actually double your SNAP dollars,” Barr said. “Growing your own food and being able to do that in your own apartment, eventually saving your seeds and just becoming self-sustaining,”Barr added as ad possible plan for families.

The garden will offer many benefits to not only students but also their families. “That’s our goal and it’s also our goal that in the summer, when we are doing this, we will actually be able to provide some fresh vegetables for our families to come in here, pick, and take home,” Miller said.

Farmers become solar power water pump for irrigation.

Farmers become solar power water pump for irrigation.

International Water Management Institute(IWMI) managed to fund a pilot project with a view to promote the use of solar power for irrigation purposes. The project which was initiated in Dhundi village in Anand district some two years ago, with a team of six farmers has now managed to generate one lakh kWH of power, some 45% of which they use for irrigation purposes.

The six farmers formed a cooperative and later adopted using of solar irrigation pump, as part of the project. According to water expert of IWMI, Dr Tushar Shah, the pumps have a unique capability to pool and inject surplus solar power to electricity grid, and therefore, farmers earn Rs 4.63 for every sold unit.

The connection of the pumps to state electricity grid has therefore proven to be a major incentive for the farmers. Till date, these pumps have generated nearly one lakh kWH of green energy of which 43,897 kWH was used for irrigation. Therefore, the cooperative injected more than 52,000 kWh of green energy into the grid and generated an income of around Rs 4 lakh from sale of surplus solar power.

"This not only saved the government Rs 2 lakh in farm power subsidy but also expanded irrigation availability and access in the village by bringing down water prices to half; and contributed as much as 65 per cent to the annual income of its members," he added.

Some Rs 46 lakh worth of funds were facilitated by IWMI for the project while the rest of the amount was invested by the farmers who participated. By now, they have also recovered the amount they have invested by trading power and saving on other costs.

100 water holes will be refilled through solar water pumps

About 100 watering holes and lakes in forests across the state will be refilled through the use of solar water pumps this year. The Forest Department is launching this scheme to revive dried-up water bodies to mitigate the acute water crisis faced by wild animals in deep forests.
The project, costing `10 crore, will be funded under corporate social responsibility schemes while the deficit amount will be raised through the major works scheme.  

A solar pump can refill 50,000 litres of water

A few solar-powered pumps have already been set up in Nagarhole and Bandipur where partially dried-up lakes and tanks were recharged. In Bandipur, the pumps were set up in collaboration with WWF-India. Working 7-8 hours a day, a solar pump can refill a partially dried-up watering hole with almost 50,000 litres of water while allowing the excess water to flow downstream.

Each solar pumping unit costs `10 lakh and has been installed in Southekere and Kundakere in Omkar range of Bandipur National Park and Antarsanthe Range of Nagarhole National Park. According to park officials, this initiative has benefited big carnivores and herbivores as more than 50 per cent of water bodies had gone dry.

How cant solar pumps benefit the wild animals

Principal Chief Conservator of Forest (Head of forest force) K S Sugara explained that wild animals usually come out of the forests during the summer season or during droughts in search of water. If this new technique is utilised in protected areas, then water could be pumped to the lakes in the forest areas.

Some criticism about the solar water pumps system

However, criticizing the scheme, wildlife activists add, “If this project is initiated, borewells can be drilled in protected areas. In the long run, it will not only adversely affect the habitat but also disturb many species. Moreover, drought is a natural phenomenon, some animals may die while some may survive.

This is how nature balances the wild animal population. Why should we interfere with nature?” they asked.Wildlife activist G Veeresh added, “This has been installed in Nagarhole Tiger Reserve and is totally unscientific - if the forest department is providing water to animals then will they provide food too? If the population of wild animals increases, this will again cause an imbalance in the food chain. Such schemes and programmes are a sheer waste of precious resources.”

During the meeting, the chief minister instructed the officials to focus more in 85 tribal-dominated development blocks for the distribution of the solar energy-based irrigation pumps, the official said

"About 12,161 solar powered pumps had been provided to the farmers till now against the target of 11,300 under 'Saur Sujala Yojna' since the inception of the scheme in November last year," an energy department official said here today.

Chief Minister Raman Singh was informed about the development under the scheme while he was chairing a review meeting of the energy department at his official residence today, he said.

Prime Minister Narendra Modi had launched the 'Saur Sujala' scheme on state’s foundation day on November 1, 2016 in Raipur.

It's aim was to strengthen agriculture by providing irrigation facilities, particularly where there is no power supply, and development of farmers in the state, he said.

During the meeting, the chief minister instructed the officials to focus more in 85 tribal-dominated development blocks for the distribution of the solar energy-based irrigation pumps, the official said.

Singh expressed satisfaction that the department had distributed more solar pumps than the set target and congratulated the officials, he said.

The CM further stressed on the need to cover 20,000 farmers under this scheme by the end of this year pointing that farmers belonging to remote areas and inaccessible regions, should be given priority while distribution.

Notably, farmers are being provided solar-irrigation pumps of 5-horsepower and 3-horsepower at heavily subsidized rates in the state.

Solar irrigation pump worth Rs 3.5 lakh (3hp) is being given to Scheduled Caste and Scheduled Tribe classes at the cost of Rs 7,000, to Other Backward Class (OBC) at Rs 12,000 and general category farmers at Rs 18,000.
The remaining amount is borne by the state government, he said.

Besides, the chief minister also directed the officials to complete electrification of all villages and hamlets by March next year.

Similarly, he also asked to complete the installation of 32 power substations being established in different parts of the state, by March next year.

These power substations will facilitate quality electricity supply in nearly 95 per cent areas of the state, the official said.
Meanwhile, the officials informed in the meeting that 4,105 solar pumps had been installed for providing drinking water purposes in the state and there is a proposal to install 1,886 more such pumps in near future.
Chairman of Chhattisgarh Power Holding Company Shivraj Singh and other officials were present on the occasion.

Uganda Starts Up First Solar Power Plant in Bid to Tap Renewables

Uganda Starts Up First Solar Power Plant in Bid to Tap Renewables
In this photo taken June 30, 2016, a Ugandan worker levels the ground at a solar plant in Soroti about 300 kilometers east of Uganda capital Kampala.


Uganda on Monday started up its first grid-connected, 10 megawatt solar power plant as the east African country moves to tap its renewable energy resources and expand its electricity generation capacity.

Funded by Norway, Germany, UK and the European Union, the $19 million plant was developed by Access Power and Eren Re, two energy sector investors based in Dubai and France respectively.

Uganda, a prospective crude oil producer of some 34 million people, generates about 850 megawatts of electricity, mostly from hydro power dams.

Officials have said they want to increase that capacity to 1,500 megawatts by 2018 and are seeking foreign investors to develop the country's non-traditional energy sources such as solar and geothermal.

The plant, a vast field of some 32,600 photovoltaic panels, is located in Soroti in northeastern Uganda and the electricity generated will help power at least 40,000 homes.

Last week Uganda signed a 90 million-euro ($95.55 million) loan deal with German development bank KfW and French government finance agency AFD to build a 45 megawatt (MW) power plant in the country's west.

Solar water pumps provide water in power-hit areas


As many parts of Odisha are experiencing acute scarcity of drinking water and over 500 piped water supply projects lying defunct, the State Government on Saturday directed the collectors to install solar pump sets in areas where power supply is erratic.

Low voltage and frequent disruption of power being a common feature during summer months across the State, non-availability of power makes it difficult to supply piped water to households.
The collectors have been advised to identify water scarcity areas where drinking water supply could be possible through solar water pumping system.

Chief Secretary AP Padhi gave this direction while reviewing the availability of drinking water and measures taken to meet the water need of people in water scarcity areas through video conference with the collectors.

Padhi asked the collectors to develop at least 10 solar water pumping systems in their districts without delay.According to Panchayati Raj department, piped water supply is provided to 38,445 out of 1.56 lakh habitations in the State. While the number of defunct piped water projects was 942 in April, the department claimed 432 have been repaired and water supply restored.
The majority of habitations of the State meet their drinking water need from 4,15,558 tubewells and sanitary wells.

Pending power bills are the other major reason behind these projects being non-operational. Though the State Government had directed power distribution companies not to discontinue power supply to water projects in case of unpaid dues, the order is not followed in most places, official sources said.

In the April review meeting of the Chief Minister, it was decided to expedite the process of installation of solar energy-based drinking water projects in the Integrated Action Plan (IAP) districts like Koraput and Malkangiri. However, the achievement in this front is very negligible.

In its three-year achievements report, the State Government said over 1.30 lakh habitations are fully covered and 25,946 villages are partially covered under drinking water supply schemes. All the partially covered villages will get piped water supply by 2018-19, the report added.

Ujjain: Govt offers 90% subsidy on solar water pumps to farmers

 Ujjain: Govt offers 90% subsidy on solar water pumps to farmers

Ujjain: Government of Madhya Pradesh and new and renewable energy department has launched a solar pump programme to solve power crisis in agriculture sector. The purpose of this programme is to enable round the clock power supply to farmers for irrigation purposes. Under the programme, farmers can get solar-powered pumps at subsidised rate and will have to bear only 10 per cent cost of the pumps while 90 per cent will be borne by the government.


Divisional commissioner MB Ojha instructed officials of Energy Development Corporation and agriculture department to endorse the programme vigorously and reach out to farmers and motivate them for installing pump as Ujjain division has received a target. The pumps will be available in one horse power to 10 horse power. As per the scheme, if a farmer goes for one HP pump of Rs 1.75 lakh then that farmer has to bear only Rs 17,500 while the government will pay the remaining amount. Till now, a total of 16 solar-powered pumps have been installed in the district covering villages Narvar, Bisakhedi, Malikhedi, Runija, Ghattiya, Taran, Mahidpur and at the office of council of agriculture research.

Off-grid renewable energy storage market to be worth Rs16,500 crore

Off-grid renewable energy storage market to be worth Rs16,500 crore

New Delhi: The energy storage market for off-grid renewable energy in India will be worth Rs16,500 crore by 2022, Delhi-based Council on Energy, Environment and Water (CEEW) said.

In an analysis released on Friday, the climate think-tank said rooftop solar alone will make up 80% of this, touching Rs13,000 crore. It stated that the battery market in India for renewable applications has been growing steadily with increasing renewable penetration across different segments.

“The Ministry of New and Renewable Energy’s target to install 10,000 micro-grid/500 MW of micro and mini-grids will offer an additional opportunity to the tune of Rs3,300 crore for battery manufacturers. Batteries are a critical component of micro/mini-grid systems, since 100% backup is often required to supply electricity to rural households during evening hours,” said the analysis.

The analysis also highlighted key challenges for battery manufacturers like high-technology costs and uncertainty around performance in Indian climatic conditions.

“While the need for managing intermittency of renewable energy is often highlighted, flexibility in our generation resources is desirable. This can come from various sources and energy storage technologies are just one among them. Though a number of projects for grid-connected storage are being called for, the markets that are served poorly by the existing grid—mobile towers in remote locations, petrol pumps, ATMs are easy pickings for storage systems to cater,” said Arunabha Ghosh, CEO, CEEW.

It emphasised that advanced battery technologies could support rapid deployment of rooftop solar installations in the commercial and industrial segment.

“Currently, the higher cost of energy storage solutions limits rooftop solar system installation to cater to base load. Solar PV systems with energy storage could be a potential replacement to existing diesel generators and it would also save about Rs4-5 per unit of electricity, compared to diesel, for industrial and commercial consumers,” the analysis added.

In June 2015, Prime Minister Narendra Modi led National Democratic Alliance government increased its solar power target from 20,000 MW to 1,00,000 MW by 2022. The total renewable power target set by government by 2022 is 175,000 MW.

Of the 100,000 MW solar power, 40 GW is targeted from rooftop solar alone. But progress has been very slow. As per a recent report, India’s total installed rooftop solar capacity is estimated at only 1,247 MW (till 31 December 2016) which is about 3% of the targeted 40 GW by 2022.

Storage is one of the problem areas in developing the renewable market.
The report further said that, “Though the solar segment offers a huge market opportunity for advanced battery technologies, manufacturers (and researchers alike) have some ground to cover in addressing technical limitations of batteries such as charging characteristics of a battery, thermal performance and requirement of boost current to charge deep cycle batteries”.

“Also, since solar companies directly procure batteries from manufacturers and require after sale services and technical support, battery companies should have wider presence to address these expectations,” it added.
