REPORT ON SOLAR

biomass, account for most of the available renewable energy on earth. Only a minusculefraction of the available solar energy is used. Solar powered electrical generation relies on

heat engines and photovoltaic. Solar energy's uses are limited only by human ingenuity. A partial list of solar applications includes space heating and cooling throughsolar architecture,

potable water via distillation and disinfection, day lighting, solar hot water, solar cooking,and high temperature process heat for industrial purposes. To harvest the solar energy, the

most common way is to use solar panels. Solar technologies are broadly characterized aseither passive solar or active solar depending on the way they capture, convert and distribute

solar energy. Active solar techniques include the use of photovoltaic panels andsolar thermalcollectors to harness the energy. Passive solar techniques include orienting a building to the

Sun, selecting materials with favourable thermal mass or light dispersing properties, and

designing spaces that naturally circulate air.

How solar equipments work?

Light (particularly sunlight) can be used to create heat or generate electrical power. This is

referred to as solar energy.

It is a clean form of energy production, which doesn't pollute the environment as some other forms of energy production do.

There are two forms of solar energy. The first is solar thermal conversion, which uses

sunlight to create heat and then electrical power. The second is photovoltaic conversion,

which uses sheets of special materials to create electricity from the sun. "Photo-" means

"light ³and´ voltaic" means "producing electricity."

Solar Thermal Conversion

Solar thermal conversion systems use reflectors or mirrors to concentrate sunlight to

extremely intense levels of heat. (Solar means "of the sun," thermal means "of heat" and

conversion means "changing something from one form to another.")

You can understand this better if you consider the example of using a magnifying glass tostart a fire. You may have heard of this or even tried it before. You can hold a magnifying

glass under the sun, and concentrate the light on a small pile of flammable materials. The

magnifying glass will make the sun's heat much stronger, and will light the materials on fire.

It has been said that a magnifying glass one meter in diameter, held under the sun, will createa ray hot enough to melt stone.

If you would hold a magnifying glass flat under the sun and put your hand under it, you

would need to move your hand away very quickly in order to avoid burning yourself.Solar thermal conversion systems use mirrors or reflectors to concentrate sunlight onto

containers full of liquid. Sometimes water is used. Sometimes other liquids are used, whichretain heat better than water.

The liquids are heated up to high temperatures, and this produces steam. The steam is used toturn a turbine. The turning motion of the turbine is used to create electricity.

How does a rotating motion create electricity? When you set up a coiled wire or similar device to rotate between two magnets, it generates an electric current. This is how electric

generators work, as well as windmills, nuclear power plants, and other energy plants which

use such things as coal, gas, or petroleum.

Windmills use the wind to create the turning motion. Nuclear power or fossil fuels are used to

heat water up, thus creating steam to turn the turbines.

Solar heating is another form of solar thermal conversion. In solar heating, an absorber is



REPORT ON SOLAR

used to take in sunlight and convert it to heat. The absorber could be something simple, like black paint, or it could be a special ceramic material. A heat absorber is considered to a be

good one when it collects at least 95 percent of the sun's radiation.The absorbers are then used to heat a fluid, which is then circulated to warm up buildings or

to create hot-water supplies.

Photovoltaic Conversion

As covered above, photo means "light." It comes from the Greek word ³phos,´ which means"light."

³Voltaic´ means, "producing electric current." The word comes from the name of AlessandroVolta, an Italian physicist who was a pioneer in the field of electricity during the 1700's. (His

name is also where the word "volt" comes from.)Photovoltaic means, "creating electrical energy when exposed to light."

A ³cell´ is a device that produces electricity. An example of an electrical cell is a flashlight

battery.

Photovoltaic cells produce electricity when they are exposed to light. They usually consist of

panels. The panels contain two layers of different materials.

When light hits these two layers, one of the layers becomes positively charged, and the other

becomes negatively charged.

This works similarly to a regular flashlight battery, which has a positive end and a negative

end. When a wire connects the two ends, they produce an electric current.

When the two layers of material in a solar cell are exposed to light, they create an electric

current.

The AMOUNT of electricity generated by a solar power cell depends on several factors.

Mainly:

-How big is the solar power device, and how much surface is exposed to the sun?

-How strong is the sun? (This depends on time of day, weather, latitude, etc.)

-How long is the solar power device exposed?-How much impediment is there to the light? (Clouds, mist, dust, dirt, etc.)

In other words, a solar power cell generates electricity faster when the sun (or light) is brighter. A device with larger solar panels will produce more electricity than one with smaller

panels. Exposing the cell for a longer period of time will create more electricity thanexposing it for a shorter period of time. A panel near the equator will be more effective than

one in an arctic region. A solar panel in misty or dusty conditions does not create as muchelectricity as it would in full, unobstructed sun.

Some solar cells produce only enough current to power small electronic devices, but can be"daisy-chained" (connected together) in order to create more electricity for other items.

Solar cells which produce enough electricity to run larger equipment (such as laptops) may be

larger, more expensive, or heavier than the others.

But there are many varieties available. Individuals and companies are consistently striving tocreate lighter and more efficient portable solar cells.

Solar Energy and the Future

An advantage to solar power is that it can reduce expenses. It can also be portable. When one

is backpacking in the wilderness or travelling far from power grids, solar power can provide a

means of powering electronic equipment.

Anot nt i of course, t e l ck of pollution created by solar energy production. Infact, if all of our electr ical energy were produced by such means, we might not be worrying

about global warming and the other destructi e effects of pollution on our environment.These threats to our environment also pose a threat to mank ind. Solar power could be

developed to a point where it, along with other forms of renewable energy, would replace

harmful means of electr icity production.

JAWA AR LAL NEHRU NATI NAL SOLAR MISSION

The Jawaharlal Nehru Nati al Solar Mi ion, also known as simply National Solar

Mission, is a major initiative of the Government of India and State Governments to promote

ecologically sustainable growth while addressing India¶s energy secur ity challenge. It will

also constitute a major contr i bution by India to the global effor t to meet the challenges of

climate change. This is one of the several initiatives that are par t of National Action Plan on

Climate Change. The program was off icially inaugurated by Pr ime Minister of India,

Manmohan Singh.

Goal The objective of the National Solar Mission is to establish India as a global leader in solar

energy, by creating the policy conditions for its diffusion across the country as quick ly as

possi ble. The immediate aim of the Mission is to focus on setting up an enabling environment

for solar technology penetration in the country both at a centrali ed and decentrali ed level.

The f irst phase (up to 2013) will focus on captur ing of the low hanging options in solar

thermal; on promoting off-gr id systems to serve populations without access to commercial

energy and modest capacity addition in gr id-based systems. In the second phase, af ter tak ing

into account the exper ience of the initial years, capacity will be aggressively ramped up to

create conditions for up scaled and competitive solar energy penetration in the country.

Ti elineThe Mission will adopt a 3-phase approach, spanning the remaining per iod of the 11th Planand f irst year of the 12th Plan (up to 2012-13) as Phase 1, the remaining 4 years of the 12th

Plan (2013±17) as Phase 2 and the 13th Plan (2017±22) as Phase 3. At the end of each plan,and mid-term dur ing the 12th and 13th Plans, there will be an evaluation of progress, review

of capacity and targets for subsequent phases, based on emerging cost and technology trends, both domestic and global. The aim would be to protect Government from subsidy exposure in

case expected cost reduction does not mater iali e or is more rapid than expected.

Phase 1

The f irst phase of this mission aims to commission 1000M of gr id connected solar power project by 2013. The implementation of this phase is in hands of a subsidiary of National



REP R L R

P 5

Thermal Power Corporation the largest power producer in India. The subsidiary, NTPC Vidyut Vyapar Nigam Ltd (NVVN) will lay out guidelines for selection of developers for

commissioning gr id connected solar power projects in India. While NVVN is the public faceof this phase, several other depar tments and ministr ies will play a signif icant role in

formulating guidelines. NVVN will sign power purchase agreements with the developers.

Since NVVN is not a utility, it will sell purchased power to different state utilities via

separate agreements.

Tariff

Tar iff for solar power projects, like any other power projects, are determined based on

guidelines issued by Central Electr icity Regulation Commission of India (CER C)

Technologies

For Phase 1 projects, NVVN proposed for 50:50 allocations towards Solar PV and Solar

thermal. The latter is quite ambitious given India has no operational Solar Thermal projects

and less than 10MW of Solar PV projects. While growing at a rapid pace lately, solar thermal technologies are still evolving globally.

A growing solar PV industry is India is hoping to take off by supplying equi pment to power

project developers. Wor ld's well known equi pment manufacturers star ted increasing their

presence in India and are sure to give a stiff competition to local Indian manufacturers. Due

to generally high temperatures in India, crystalline silicon based products are not the most

ideal ones. Thin f ilm technologies like amorphous silicon CIGS and Cd Te could be more

suitable for higher temperature situations.

Solar thermal technology providers barely have a foothold in India. Few technology providers like Abengoa have some Indian presence in antici pation of demand from this

mission. Many global players are gliding around and tak ing a wait and see approach via joint

ventures with local Indian par tners.

Domestic Content Controversy

Initial guidelines for the solar mission mandated cells and modules for solar PV projects to be

manufactured in India. That accounts to over 60% of total system costs. For solar thermal,guidelines mandated 30% project to have domestic content. A r igorous controversy emerged

between power project developers and solar PV equi pment manufacturers. The former camp prefers to source modules by accessing highly competitive global market to attain f lexi ble

pr icing, better quality, predictable delivery and use of latest technologies. The latter camp

prefers controlled / planned environment to force developers to purchase modules from a

small, al beit growing, group of module manufacturers in India Manufacturers want to avoid

competition with global players and are lobbying the government to incentivi e growth of

local industry.

What is ³GR EEN BUILDING´?



REP R L R

P 6

Green buil ing (also known as green construction or sustainable buil ing) is the practiceof creating structures and using processes that are environmentally responsi ble and resource-

eff icient throughout a building's life-cycle: from sitting to design, construction, operation,maintenance, renovation, and demolition. This practice expands and complements the

classical building design concerns of economy, utility, durability, and comfor t

Although new technologies are constantly being developed to complement current practicesin creating greener structures, the common objective is that green buildings are designed to

reduce the overall impact of the built environment on human health and the natural

environment by:

y Eff iciently using energy, water, and other resources

y Protecting occupant health and improving employee productivity

y Reducing waste, pollution and environmental degradation

A similar concept is natural building, which is usually on a smaller scale and tends to focuson the use of natural mater ials that are available locally. Other related topics include

sustainable design and green architecture. Green building does not specif ically address the

issue of the retrof itting existing homes

Reducing environmental impact

Green building practices aim to reduce the environmental impact of new buildings. Buildings

account for a large amount of land use, energy and water consumption, and air andatmosphere alteration. Consider ing the statistics, reducing the amount of natural resources

buildings consume and the amount of pollution given off is seen as crucial for futuresustainability, according to EPA. The building sector alone accounts for 30-40 percent of

global energy use. Over 80 percent of the environmentally harmful emissions from buildingsare due to energy consumption dur ing the times when the buildings are in use. Green building

does not typically include the concept of renovations although many of the 2050 homes arealready built and UK homes account for 30% of UK Carbon Emissions. Domestic energy

improvement targets of 20% between now and 2010, and again by a fur ther 20% between

2010 and 2020 have been suggested by the UK government [. The environmental impact of

buildings is of ten underestimated, while the perceived costs of green buildings are

overestimated. A recent survey by the Wor ld Business Council for Sustainable Development

f inds that green costs are overestimated by 300 percent, as key players in real estate and

construction estimate the additional cost at 17 percent above conventional construction, more

than tr i ple the true average cost difference of about 5 percent. According to the UK GreenBuilding Council, existing buildings account for 17% of the UK's total carbon emissions.

Goals of green building

The concept of sustainable development can be traced to the energy (especially fossil oil)

cr isis and the environment pollution concern in the 1970s The green building movement in

the U.S. or iginated from the need and desire for more energy eff icient and environmentally



REP R L R

P 7

fr iendly construction practices. There are a number of motives to building green, includingenvironmental, economic, and social benef its. However, modern sustainability initiatives call

for an integrated and synergistic design to both new construction and in the retrof itting of anexisting structure. Also known as sustainable design, this approach integrates the building

life-cycle with each green practice employed with a design-purpose to create a synergy

amongst the practices used. Green building br ings together a vast array of practices and

techniques to reduce and ultimately eliminate the impacts of new buildings on theenvironment and human health. It of ten emphasi es tak ing advantage of renewable resources,

e.g., using sunlight through passive solar, active solar, and photovoltaic techniques and using

plants and trees through green roofs, rain gardens, and for reduction of rainwater run-off.

Many other techniques, such as using packed gravel or permeable concrete instead of

conventional concrete or asphalt to enhance replenishment of ground water, are used as well.

While the practices, or technologies, employed in green building are constantly evolving and

may differ from region to region, there are fundamental pr inci ples that persist from which the

method is der ived: Sitting and Structure Design Eff iciency, Energy Eff iciency, Water

Eff iciency, Mater ials Eff iciency, Indoor Environmental Quality Enhancement, Operations

and Maintenance Optimi ation, and Waste and Toxics Reduction. The essence of green building is an optimi ation of one or more of these pr inci ples. Also, with the proper

synergistic design, individual green building technologies may work together to produce agreater cumulative effect. On the aesthetic side of green architecture or sustainable design is

the philosophy of designing a building that is in harmony with the natural features andresources surrounding the site. There are several key steps in designing sustainable buildings:

specify 'green' building mater ials from local sources, reduce loads, optimi e systems, andgenerate on-site renewable energy.

Sitting and structure design efficiency

The foundation of any construction project is rooted in the concept and design stages. The

concept stage, in fact, is one of the major steps in a project life cycle, as it has the largest

impact on cost and performance. In designing environmentally optimal buildings, theobjective is to minimi e the total environmental impact associated with all life-cycle stages of

the building project. However, building as a process is not as streamlined as an industr ial process, and var ies from one building to the other, never repeating itself identically. In

addition, buildings are much more complex products, composed of a multitude of mater ialsand components each constituting var ious design var iables to be decided at the design stage.

A var iation of every design var iable may affect the environment dur ing all the building'srelevant life-cycle stages.

Energy efficiency

Green buildings of ten include measures to reduce energy use. To increase the eff iciency of

the building envelope, (the barr ier between conditioned and unconditioned space), they mayuse high-eff iciency windows and insulation in walls, ceilings, and f loors. Another strategy,

passive solar building design, is of ten implemented in low-energy homes. Designers or ient

windows and walls and place awnings, porches, and trees to shade windows and roofs dur ing

the summer while maximi ing solar gain in the winter. In addition, effective window placement (day lighting) can provide more natural light and lessen the need for electr ic

lighting dur ing the day. Solar water heating fur ther reduces energy loads. Onsite generationof renewable energy through solar power, wind power, hydro power, or biomass can



REP R L R

P 8

signif icantly reduce the environmental impact of the building. Power generation is generallythe most expensive feature to add to a building.

Water efficiency

Reducing water consumption and protecting water quality are key objectives in sustainable

building. One cr itical issue of water consumption is that in many areas, the demands on the

supplying aquifer exceed its ability to replenish itself. To the maximum extent feasi ble,

facilities should increase their dependence on water that is collected, used, pur if ied, and

reused on-site. The protection and conservation of water throughout the life of a building may

be accomplished by designing for dual plumbing that recycles water in toilet f lushing. Waste-

water may be minimi ed by utili ing water conserving f ixtures such as ultra-low f lush toiletsand low-f low shower heads. Bidets hel p eliminate the use of toilet paper, reducing sewer

traff ic and increasing possi bilities of re-using water on-site. Point of use water treatment andheating improves both water quality and energy eff iciency while reducing the amount of

water in circulation. The use of non-sewage and grey water for on-site use such as site-irr igation will minimi e demands on the local aquifer.

Materials efficiency

Building mater ials typically considered to be 'green' include rapidly renewable plant mater ials

like bamboo (because bamboo grows quick ly) and straw, lumber from forests cer tif ied to be

sustainably managed, ecology blocks, dimension stone, recycled stone, recycled metal, and

other products that are non-toxic, reusable, renewable, and recyclable (e.g. Tress, Linoleum,

sheep wool, panels made from paper f lakes, compressed ear th block, adobe, baked ear th,

rammed ear th, clay, vermiculite, f lax linen, sisal, sea grass, cork, expanded clay grains,

coconut, wood f i bre plates, calcium sand stone, concrete (high and ultra high performance,roman self-healing concrete) , etc. The EPA (Environmental Protection Agency) also

suggests using recycled industr ial goods, such as coal combustion products, foundry sand,

and demolition debr is in construction projects. Building mater ials should be extracted andmanufactured locally to the building site to minimi e the energy embedded in their

transpor tation. Where possi ble, building elements should be manufactured off-site and

delivered to site, to maximise benef its of off-site manufacture including minimising waste,

maximising recycling (because manufacture is in one location), high quality elements, better

OHS management, less noise and dust.

Indoor environmental quality enhancement

The Indoor Environmental Quality (IEQ) category in LEED standards, one of the f ive

environmental categor ies, was created to provide comfor t, well-being, and productivity of

occupants. The LEED IEQ category addresses design and construction guidelines especially: indoor air quality (IAQ), thermal quality, and lighting quality. Indoor Air Quality seeks to

reduce volatile organic compounds, or VOC's, and other air impur ities such as microbial

contaminants. Buildings rely on a proper ly designed HVAC system to provide adequate

ventilation and air f iltration as well as isolate operations (k itchens, dry cleaners, etc.) from

other occupancies. Dur ing the design and construction process choosing construction

mater ials and inter ior f inish products with zero or low emissions will improve IAQ. Many

building mater ials and cleaning/maintenance products emit toxic gases, such as VOC's and

formaldehyde. These gases can have a detr imental impact on occupants' health and



REP R L R

P 9

productivity as well. Avoiding these products will increase a building's IEQ. Personal temperature and airf low control over the HVAC system coupled with a proper ly designed

building envelope will also aid in increasing a building's thermal quality. Creating a high performance luminous environment through the careful integration of natural and ar tif icial

light sources will improve on the lighting quality of a structure.

Operations and maintenance optimization

No matter how sustainable a building may have been in its design and construction, it can

only remain so if it is operated responsi bly and maintained proper ly. Ensur ing operations and

maintenance (O&M) personnel are par t of the project's planning and development process

will hel p retain the green cr iter ia designed at the onset of the project. Every aspect of green

building is integrated into the O&M phase of a building's life. The addition of new green

technologies also falls on the O&M staff. Although the goal of waste reduction may beapplied dur ing the design, construction and demolition phases of a building's life-cycle, it is

in the O&M phase that green practices such as recycling and air quality enhancement take place.

Waste reduction

Green architecture also seeks to reduce waste of energy, water and mater ials used dur ing

construction. For example, in California near ly 60% of the state's waste comes from

commercial buildings dur ing the construction phase; one goal should be to reduce the amount

of mater ial going to landf ills. Well-designed buildings also hel p reduce the amount of waste

generated by the occupants as well, by providing on-site solutions such as compost bins to

reduce matter going to landf ills .To reduce the impact on wells or water treatment plants,several options exist. "Grey water ", wastewater from sources such as dishwashing or washing

machines, can be used for subsurface irr igation, or if treated, for non-potable purposes, e.g.,to f lush toilets and wash cars. Rainwater collectors are used for similar purposes .Centralized

wastewater treatment systems can be costly and use a lot of energy. An alternative to this process is conver ting waste and wastewater into fer tilizer, which avoids these costs and

shows other benef its. By collecting human waste at the source and running it to a semi-centralized biogas plant with other biological waste, liquid fer tilizer can be produced.

INTERSOLAR

Since the f irst time Intersolar opened its doors in 1991, the exhi bition has enjoyed growing

prominence across the wor ld. As the international platform for solar technology, it ref lects

the dynamic development along the entire value added chain in the areas of photovoltaic and

solar thermal technology - and therefore encompasses far more than any other event.

Intersolar br ings people and markets together under the guiding pr inci ple, "Connecting Solar

Business". And as trade visitors from over 150 countr ies have conf irmed: no other event

br ings together so many decision makers from industry, trade and commerce with solar

industry manufacturers, suppliers, institutes and associations. The wor ld's leading solar

exhi bition therefore facilitates the targeted, personal exchange of valuable information

relating to products, markets and services.

Intersolar Europe, which took place from June 9 to 11, 2010 has once again posted record

f igures. Compared with 2009, the number of exhi bitors has r isen from 1,414 to 1,884 and the

exhi bition area from 104,000 sqm to 134,000 sqm (1,4 million sq.f t.). The number of visitors

has gone up from 58,627 to more than 72,000.
