Financial pressure has been mounting on renewable energy companies owing to the challenges prevailing in the sector. Some of the key issues are inadequate transmission infrastructure, continued under subscription of tenders and inconsistencies in the […]
Renewable energy sources are not equally well distributed across the country. For example, only seven states have significant wind energy potential, and it is the same scenario for other renewable sources such as small-hydro and […]
Solar-based power generation has emerged as a viable option in the captive power space over the past five years owing to rapidly falling capital costs. Even though coal-based captive power plants (CPPs) continue to occupy […]
By Dr Kunal Ghosh, Retired Professor and Head, Aerospace Engineering Department, IIT Kanpur Small wind turbines are suitable for remote windy areas. Ladakh qualifies as a remote region, which is reachable only through mountainous roads. […]
By Abhishek Munot, Partner, J. Sagar Associates, and Samikrith Rao Puskuri, Associate, J. Sagar Associates India is fast emerging as a leader in the clean energy space, with renewables slated to contribute around 57 per […]
Wind energy has been a relatively low-priority renewable segment for many countries in the Southeast Asia (SEA) region, as compared to solar, which has witnessed rapid installations. The region significantly lags behind the rest of […]
By Ashay Abbhi The growth of renewable energy in India has opened up a plethora of opportunities for all stakeholders. The dynamic policy environment aligned with the government’s ambitious targets has improved investor confidence. Meanwhile, […]
By Dolly Khattar A recent report by Fitch Solutions Macro Research states that a combination of various challenges – including land availability hurdles, grid access bottlenecks and viability concerns over low tender bids – will […]
By Dolly Khattar Big Indian cities are pivotal to India’s growth and economic development. However, these cities have grown erratically and unsustainably, resulting in chaotic traffic, unhealthy pollution levels, lethargic administrations, mounting waste dumps, legacy […]
By Ashay Abbhi The transmission network is the largest casualty of renewable energy integration. Given the mandate to generate and procure a greater amount of renewable energy, states face multiple challenges, in terms of renewable […]
By Sarthak Takyar The Solar Energy Corporation of India (SECI) recently concluded the auction of Tranche VI of Inter State Transmission System (ISTS)-connected wind power projects worth 1,200 MW and grid-connected solar projects of 750 […]
The Indian power sector is moving closer to its targets, including Power for All by 2019 and 175 GW of renewable energy capacity by 2022. While setting targets is indeed important for defining overall growth […]
By Sarthak Takyar Renewable energy companies are facing increasing financial pressure. Their profit margins are shrinking owing to falling tariffs; meanwhile, the cost of domestic finance continues to be high. While tariffs have stabilised somewhat […]
The small hilly state of Uttarakhand was formed just two decades back on the premise that abundant hydropower and increasing tourism would make the state profitable. Nearly two decades later, it is safe to say […]
In what can be termed as the first significant move towards resolving the issue of land constraints for renewable energy project development, the Government of Gujarat has released its land policy for such projects. The […]
With over 35 GW of installed capacity, the Indian wind energy segment has matured significantly. Over the past two years, the wind power market has transitioned from a feed-in tariff regime to competitive bidding. The […]
With energy security becoming a priority for all economies, investments in the energy sector have largely remained stable. This is especially true for large utilities, as most countries have regulatory frameworks that ensure low risks […]
Pressure is building up in Germany as it is striving to deliver on its promise of energy transition, the Energiewende. At the latest UN climate summit, the COP24 (Conference of the Parties), held in Katowice, […]
With wind power installations crossing the 500 GW mark globally, wind power has emerged as the cheapest source of power in many parts of the world. In India itself, wind tariffs are hovering around Rs 2.76 […]
The availability of domestic finance has been one of the primary challenges for the renewable energy sector in India. High capital costs, falling margins, grid integration and transmission issues all contribute to the high risk […]
