High Temperature Active Solar Thermal System with Sterling Engine for Electricity Generation
Indias estimated solar thermal energy potential is 35 MW/km2 Present solar thermal program amounts to 500,000 m2 collection area and 485,000 cookers. Solar water heating potential in the near future may be 30 million m2 of collection area Solar air heating systems for drying agricultural produce and in timber kilns Solar stills to supply drinking water and distilled water Box solar cookers for preparing food for 4-5 people - Dish solar cookers for 10-15 people and community solar cookers for 3540 people Worlds largest solar steam cooking system for preparing food for 10,000 people was installed at Mount Abu in March, 1999 140 MW integrated solar combined cycle power project with solar thermal power capacity of 35 MW using parabolic trough collector technology is due for completion by the end of 2002 in Jodhpur district it will be firing naphtha/gas as supplementary fuel
