WEEKEND WARRIORS PRESENTS

GREEN ENERGY

DESIGNED BY: AMIT DEY, ECE DEPARTMENT, THE NEOTIA UNIVERSITY(TNU),KOLKATA

WHAT IS GREEN ENERGY?

ENERGY THAT COMES FROM SUSTAINABLE RESOURCE(ACCORDING TO

HL BILL 61,2007UK)

WHY GREEN ENERGY?

**PROTECT FROM ENERGY CRISIS

**REDUCING POLLUTANTS & GREENHOUSE GASSES

**DESTROY GLOBAL WARMING & DIMMING **PROTECT FROM OZONE LAYER DEPLETION**REDUCING THE DIVERSITY OF NATURE

TYPES OF

FLOWING WATER CREATS ENERGY THAT CAN BE

CAPTURED & TURNED INTO ELECTRICITY IS CALLED

HYDROPOWER

TYPES OF HYDROPOWER BY THEIR HYDROLIC CHARACTERISTICS:

1.RUN OF RIVER SCHEMS 2.STORAGE SCHEMS

3.PUMPED STORAGE SCHEMS4.TIDEL WAVE POWER SCHEME

RUN OF RIVER SCHEMS:

LITTLE OR NO WATER STORAGES HAS REQUIRED

E.g. Baghlihar Hydropower projection, Chenab river,

900MW

ADVANTAGES OF ROR SCHEMS:

1.CLEANER POWER 2.FEWER GREENHOUSE GASSES3.LESS FLOODING IS REQUIRED

DISADVANTAGES OF ROR SCHEMS:

1.UNIFORM POWER 2.AVAILABILITY OF SITES

PUMPED STORAGE SCHEME:UTILIZE THE FLOWOF WATER FROMA RESERVOIR AT

HIGHER POTENTIALTO ONE AT LOWERPOTENTIAL IN PSH

E.G. TEHRI DAM

INDIA & TIDAL POWER

INDIAN STATISTICS ON H.P.(2013):

1. 7th LARGEST PRODUCER OF THE WORLD 2. 1st SMALL HYDROPOWER PLANT OF ASIA

WAS EASTABLISHED AT SIDRAPONG IN DARJEELING(INDIA),1897

3. 1st LARGE SCALE HYDROPOWER PLANT WAS ESTABLISHED IN KARNATAKA AT

SHIVANA SAMUDRA(1902)

ADVANTAGES OF HYDROPOWER:** NO POLLUTANTS

**SAY NO TO GREENHOUSE GASES**SAVING NATURAL RESOURCES**DAMS AS A WATER RESERVOIR

**CONSTANT SOURCE OF ENERGY

& GEOTHERMAL POWER

1. 1st GEOTHERMAL POWER PLANT OF INDIA COMES UP IN CHATTRISGARH(PROPOSED)

2. INDIA HAS 10600MW OF POTENTIAL IN THE GEOTHERMAL PROVINCES

3. INDIA HAS 340HOT SPRINGS FOR THIS

WIND TURBINES CONVERT THE KINETIC ENERGY IN THE WIND

INTO MECHANICAL POWER. THEN GENERATOR CONVERT THIS MECHANICAL ENERGY

INTO ELECTRICITY

HOW IT WORKS:

HOW GEARBOX INCREASE SPEED:

ADVANTAGES OF WIND ENERGY:

**NO POLLUTION

**RENEWABLE**SUSTAINABLE**EFFECTIVE COST

FROM 2007 40COUNTRIES

CELEBRATED THIS DAY.IT ORGANIZE BY

EWEA

SOLAR ENERGY:

PRODUCED BY COLLECTING SUNLIGHT & CONVERTING

INTO ELECTRICITY BY USING SOLAR PANELS

SIMPLE BLOCK DIAGRAM

HOW SOLAR PANEL WORKS:STEP1: SUNLIGHT(PACKET OF ENERGY) INCIDENT TO

SOLAR PANELSTEP2: ELECTRON PRESENT

IN THE VB ABSORB ENERGY & BEING EXCITED

STEP 3: EXCITED ELECTRONJUMPS TO THE CONDUTION

BAND & BECOME FREE

STEP 4: THEN USE

IMPORTANT USE:

INDIAN STATISTICS(2014):

**INSTALLED CAPACITY 2200MW**INDIA RECEIVES HIGHEST GLOBAL SOLARRADIATION OF THE WORLD(5000TRILLION

kWh/YEAR)**TARGETING US$100BILLION OF INVESTMENT

&100GW OF SOLAR CAPACITY BY2022

DROP IN SOLAR POWER COST A GAME CHANGER.

-NARENDRA MODI

**INDIA INSTALLED 1st CANELTOP SOLAR POWER PROJECT IN

THE WORLD(GUJRAT)**PLANNING TO INSTALL

WORLD’S LARGEST SOLARPOWER PLANT NEAR

SAMBHAR LAKE, RAJASTHAN(4000MW)

ADVANTAGES OF SOLAR POWER:

**RENEWABLE & SUSTAINABLE

**CLEAN ENERGY SOURCE

**LOW MAINTENANCE

**EFFECTIVE COST

DISADVANTAGES:

**MORE PLACE IS REQUIRED

**AVAILABILITY FACTOR IS NOT GOOD

**UNIFORM POWER

WHICH IS BETTER CHOICE?

**IT VARIES PLACE TO PLACE

**DEPENDS ON AVAILABILITY FACTORS OF EACH

**GEOGRAPHICAL CONDITION MATTERS(HEAT BUDGET,WIND CAPACITY etc)
