Wind Energy - Technology
Differential heating of the earths surface
and atmosphere induces vertical and
horizontal air currents that are affected by
the earths rotation and contours of the
land and generates WIND.
A wind turbine obtains its power input by
converting the force of the wind into a
torque (turning force) acting on the rotor
blades.
The amount of energy which the wind
transfers to the rotor depends on the
density of the air, the rotor area, and the
wind speed.
PLF of Wind Farm is normally in the range
of 20 % to 30% depending upon the site
conditions and WTG rating.

Air Density (kg/m3)
P = 0.5 X X A X V3

Solar Energy - Technology
Solar power is by far the Earth's most available energy source, easily capable of providing
many times the total current energy demand.
Solar power is the conversion of sunlight into electricity.
Two main commercial ways of conversion of sunlight into electricity.
Concentrating Solar Thermal Plant (CSP)
Photovoltaic Plants (PV)
CSP and PV both have their markets. PV is very successful in decentralized applications,
whereas CSP offers advantages for central and large-scale applications. CSP power
plants are the most cost-efficient way to generate and to store dispatch able CO2-free
electricity. However, there is no competition between both. Rather, they have to be seen as
complementary technologies.
PLF of CSP In the range of 20 % to 30 %
PLF of PV In the range of 15 % to 20 %

Solar Energy - Technology
In both CSP and PV technologies, solar resources plays major role.
Maps are available to calculate solar resource of a particular region. However, for both CSP
and PV technologies different solar radiations are taken into account.
Basically two types of solar radiations are there;
Global Horizontal irradiations (GHI)
Direct Normal Irradiation (DNI)
For PV technologies GHI is considered. GHI
consists of diffuse radiations and direct
horizontal radiations (beam).
Minimum GHI 1000 kwh/m2 pa
For CSP, DNI is considered. DNI
is the amount of radiation received by
a surface which is permanently aligned
perpendicular to the incoming beam.
Minimum DNI 1900 kwh/m2 pa

Solar Energy Current Scenario
The total installed capacity of solar
power (Both CSP and PV) as of 2008
is 2826 MW.
In India the total installed capacity of
solar power is around 2 MW.
In India, various government and
private players have entered into
CSP and PV markets.
MNRE has set a target to establish at
least 50 MW of solar projects during
the 11th plan.
