The Ministry of New and Renewable Energy (MNRE) has unveiled the draft design specifications for Solar Cold Storage (SCS), setting the stage for public feedback and stakeholder engagement. This move underscores
The objectives of this guidelines are: To promote off-grid applications of solar energy (both SPV and Solar Thermal)
This document presents national and international best practices on solar water heater and reviews the building sector policies and regulations in India in the context of solar water heating (SWH) system promotion & assesses their effectiveness.
The objective of the Jawaharlal Nehru National Solar Mission (JNNSM) under the brand
Distribution Utilities can play an important role in promotion of SWHS, as they can reduce conventional energy consumption in cities and towns and facilitate peak load shaving. Most States are facing peaking and energy shortages and thus any Demand Side Management (DSM) measure can assist in providing better and more efficient energy services.
This latest assessment of the solar water heater market in India provides an insight into the current market and projects realizable market potential till the year 2022. Finds considerable gap between the projected potential & targets set by JNNSM and suggests a closer scrutiny of the targets set.
The national policy on bio-fuels approved by Ministry of New and Renewable Energy. Calls for bio-diesel production from non-edible oil seeds in waste /degraded / marginal lands and blending at least 20 percent biofuels in diesel and petrol by 2017.
Jawaharlal Nehru National Solar Mission approved by the cabinet recently. The mission will be implemented in three phases and aims to feed 20,000 MW to the national grid by 2022, with an initial investment of Rs 4,337 crore.
The Renewable Energy for Rural Livelihoods (RERL) project tries to demonstrate the use of renewable sources of energy in reducing poverty through improved quality of life and increased livelihood opportunities in remote, non-electrified villages of India that are not likely to get electricity from the grid.

The Ministry of New and Renewable Energy is implementing research and development projects on development of advanced batteries, super capacitors and components of electric vehicles (EVs). EVs are environmentally benign and reduce the consumption of oil. The Ministry is supporting projects at different
