Routed in harnessing the renewable energyresources for sustaining the green environment.

Never be exhausted.

less emission naturally.

Predominant sources are sun, wind, water,agricultural residues, firewood and bio waste,etc.,

Non Conventional Energy


4/26

A race is going on throughout theworld in harnessing the renewableenergy resources.

Technologically advanced countrieshave made rapid strides in this area.

Efforts to increasing energyrequirements in our country.

Solar energy is the most readilyavailable source of energy.

Non-polluting

Lessening the greenhouse effect.

Solar Energy


12/26


13/26

Energy generated fromcarbonaceous waste ofvarious human and naturalactivities.

Biomass Energy


14/26

It does not add carbon dioxide to the atmosphere.

Generate electricity with the same equipment.

Biomass is an important fuel worldwide after coal, oiland natural gas.

Finland, USA and Sweden the per capita biomassenergy used is higher than in India.


15/26

Biomass fuels used in India account for about 1/3ofthe total fuel used.

Most important biomass fuel used in- Over 90%of the rural households &

- Around15%of the urban households.


16/26

A mini biogas digester has recently developed,and is being in-field tested for domestic lighting.

Indian sugar mills (Around 430 Mills) arerapidly turning to biogas, to generate electricity.

This is mainly being done toClean up the environment

Cut down power costs &

Earn additional revenue.


17/26

Fuel cells are electrochemical devices.

Used in space flights and electric vehiclesare the best option available todramatically reduce urban air pollution.

Fuel cells for power generation India hasa large gap between the demand for andsupply of power.

Ecological and Environmental impacts.

Fuel cells


18/26

The energy in the flowing water can beused to produce electricity.

Local industries should be encouraged

to use this electricity for sustainabledevelopment.

Eliminates most of the negative

environmental effects

Geothermal Energy


20/26

Geothermal plants do not require a lot ofland, 400m2 can produce a gigawatt ofenergy over 30 years.

One well blew its top 10 years after itwas built, and this threw hundreds oftons of rock, mud and steam into theatmosphere.

Emission of Low Quantities ofGreenhouse Gasses


21/26

In India, Northwestern Himalayasand the western coast areconsidered geothermal areas.

The Geological Survey of India hasalready identified more than 350hot spring sites, which can beexplored as areas to tap

geothermal energy.


22/26

Wind energy is the kinetic energy associated withthe movement of atmospheric air.

India ranks 5th in the world with a total windpower capacity .

present utilization is only 26 TW-h/year.

The present increasing utilization of wind energyis highly supplementing our energy requirements.

Wind Energy


23/26

Five Nations Germany, USA, Denmark,Spain and India account for 80% of theworldsinstalled wind energy capacity.

Wind energy continues to be the fastestgrowing renewable energy source withworldwide.

Benefit of our farming community.

Improving the quality of life of ourfarmers.
