A round table, on the feasibility and implementation plan for electrification of public transportation in Bengaluru, was co-organised by CSTEP, India Smart Grid Forum (ISGF), and Shakti Sustainable Energy Foundation (SSEF).
In 2017, Karnataka became the first Indian state to announce an EV Policy.
Electrification is a key solution to growing levels of vehicle pollution in metropolises and is of particular importance to India today.
Electrification of vehicle fleets has gained considerable momentum as many companies involving urban mobility in their operations are committed to reducing their carbon footprint.
The Indian Railways, one of the biggest train networks worldwide, transports over 24 million passengers and 3 MT of freight daily.
In India, emissions from one truck are equivalent to those from 25 cabs.
Energy access is a well-proven determinant in several development and transformative sectors, such as education, primary health, gender empowerment, and quality of life.
This publication enlighten the reader about how ectricity can be produced using the rice husk at Ghana.
This study was commissioned by Karnataka Electricity Regulatory Commission (KERC) to identify key implementable strategies for the state of Karnataka for achieving the objectives of 24x7 Power for All The study describes the power supply scenario in the State including estimates for future energy demand The status of 24x7 power supply is analysed along the dimensions of access (electrification), adequacy (per capita consumption), affordability (cost of supply), availability (duration of supply), and reliability Future plans for generation capacity are analysed to determine the range of foreseeable shortfalls till Financial Year (FY) 2020 Transmission capacity augmentation, renewable energy and energy efficiency options available to meet future demand are discussed in detail The report concludes with the strategies that Karnataka should focus on in order to achieve the objectives of 24x7 Power for All.
According to Niti Aayog, the demand for energy in India is set to grow from the current level of 5,311 TWh to 18,635 TWh by 2047, an increment of 3.
This project explores a general case methodology for designing mini-grids through a pilot project implementation, to provide a sustainable, economically viable and reliable supply of power to remote areas that face zero-to-poor energy access.
Energy access is a critical challenge in the Indian power sector.
In India, the electrification of the transportation sector is considered a vital strategy to reduce greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions and air pollution.
According to Union Ministry of Statistics and Programme Implementation, India produced 15,311 petajoules of energy in 2020 of which 81% was derived from fossil fuels such as coal, oil, and natural gas.
