Transcript of Challenges in Integrating Renewable Energ

About Renewable Energy Integration

The urgent need to reduce global carbon foot print and to meet the ever increasing energy demand has created a strong and long term demand for energy efficiency with renewable energy as a key element to these objectives. The question that needs to be raised is how these new generation systems can be integrated to the power grid. The major Renewable Energy Sources such as Wind, Solar, and Hydel are viable sources given its potential in India. Also due to environmental concerns, constructions of large dams are avoided. This necessitates building small run of river dams thereby creating micro-hydel sources.

Although Indian government has given sufficient impetus through MNRE, Jawaharlal Nehru National Solar Mission and other such initiatives to enhance the use of renewable energy, there are numerous issues that need to be explored, since in a large scale integration, seasonal variability of supply affect the stability greatly. Again the interfaces between the Renewable Energy Sources and the grid should be explored thoroughly before they are used, for they should meet the stringent power quality standards. In remote places where grid connectivity is not feasible, isolated grids with Renewable Energy sources are well suited. There are also grids which can work with and off the main grid.

Micro-grids, which can be connected to the main grid, and also works in an isolated mode, are the best solutions to avoid cascading of faults or other stability issues associated with Renewable Energy variation.

Renewable Energy Sources installed at home are one way of alleviating power cuts during peak hours and reducing under frequency problems connected with rotor angle stability which otherwise would result in severe blackouts.

Objective of this workshop

This course will provide a comprehensive discussion on renewable energy resources, the associated conversion technologies for electricity generation, and renewable energy integration into main grid and micro-grids. This is also intended to give case studies and solutions to issues facing renewable energy integration. The course will also encourage renewable energy generation at micro level and give impetus to further the research into their dynamics in the main grid and analyzing reliability, power quality, and stability problems.
