Caselet 1
This a truly a ambitious project and a showpiece of co-operation between the state Government of Rajasthan, the Government of India, the World Bank and the Government of Germany getting together to strike a blow to renewable energy.
The project in question is a 140 MW Integrated Solar Combined Cycle (ISCC) power plant with a solar component of 35 MW and a combined cycle power plant of 105 MW in Jodhpur district in Rajasthan. The combined cycle plant will use naphtha as the fuel, and a back-up plant of 35 MW will also lend a helping hand when the sun is not shining.
The total cost of the project works out to eight hundred and seventy-one crore rupees- a hefty capital cost of six crore thirty lakh rupees per MW while a stand-alone naphtha based plant will cost less than four crore rupees a MW. The trick here is ....................... will be running on naphtha, a dirty oil based fuel, which negates all that green activists stand for. That is simply because the sunlight won’t be around at the convenience of green activists. Of course, economists would be more concerned with the opportunity cost of using one lakh seventy thousand tones each year of naphtha in this “solar” energy project!
Required
Q 1. How to Generate Solar Energy using Naptha? Explain?
Caselet 2
Energy plays a vital role in our day to day life. Energy consumption and production affect the local and global environment. Energy is mainly produced from fossil fuels and a sustainable development in the production of energy is a situation in which the future does not get harmed in any way. However, the use of fossil fuels will not help promote this much – longed – for sustainable development as fossil fuels when burned release a lot of energy into the atmosphere, which may lead to environmental damage.
The sustainable energy sources must be tapped to change the energy pattern used by the consumers, for which renewal energy sources like wind, sunlight and water need to be tapped and stored. The use of renewable energy is cleaner and safer for the environment. Various countries have started taking initiatives in building sustainable renewal energy resources, thereby, throwing open employment to the youth.
.............The implementation of renewable energy projects can deliver clear benefits to developing countries provided they use efficient technologies. In this case, the technical know – how is invariably transferred from the experienced and developing countries to most of the less developed or developing countries.
Questions
Q 1. What is Renewable Energy and state the Sustainable Development to it?
Q2. How could renewable energy help in providing opportunities to the youth?
