Girishkumar Kadam, Senior Vice President & Co-Group Head – Corporate Ratings at ICRA, predicts that the backlog of projects awarded by central nodal agencies and state distribution utilities will also drive capacity addition. "(There is) still a large amount of undeveloped solar, wind, and hybrid capacity of more than 55 GW." Based on this, ICRA anticipates an increase in RE capacity addition from 7.4 GW reported in FY2021 to 12.5 GW in FY2022 and 16 GW in FY2023," Kadam said.

According to ICRA, India will add 16 GW of renewable energy capacity in FY23.

According to PTI, India is expected to add an estimated 16 GW of renewable energy over FY23, according to rating agency ICRA. The country also has a strong pipeline of 55 GW clean energy projects.

The outlook for capacity addition "remains strong," according to ICRA, due to a large project pipeline and "highly competitive tariffs offered by these projects." It expects 16 GW capacity addition in FY23, up from 12.5 GW in FY22 and 7.4 GW in FY21.

Germany
For decades, the IPP business model was uncommon in Germany. However, since the EEG, the IPP business model has become more popular (for renewable energy). The approach's success is contingent upon securing a distribution partner for the generated energy.

All you need to know about Independent power producer

Independent power producers (IPPs) or non-utility generators (NUGs) are entities that are not public utilities but own facilities for the generation of electric power for sale to utilities and end users. NUGs may be privately owned facilities, corporations, cooperatives such as rural solar or wind energy producers, or non-energy industrial concerns that are capable of supplying excess energy to the system.

259 The CEA is also responsible for approving hydropower development schemes from the federal, state, and private sectors, taking into account the factors that will result in the river and its tributaries being developed efficiently for power generation while still meeting the requirements for drinking water, irrigation, navigation, and flood control.

CEA is responsible for developing technical standards for the building of electrical plants, electric lines, and grid connection, as specified in section 73 (b) of the Electricity Act, 2003.

2. However, pursuant to section 7 of this Act, a generating firm may develop, operate, and maintain a generating station if it complies with the technical standards specified in clause (b) of section 73 for grid connectivity only. This means that generating stations are not required to adhere to the CEA technical criteria for the building of electrical plants and transmission lines. Similarly, transmission / distribution licensees are not required to comply with mandatory requirements for the construction of electric lines other than the Grid Code/Grid Standards for the operation and maintenance of transmission lines prescribed by CEA pursuant to section 73 (d) of this Act. Often, these CEA requirements are too conservative, sacrificing optimal design features/cost/utility, and often do not provide sufficient clarity in selecting the system / subsystem capabilities of electrical plants and transmission lines.

Central Electricity Authority (India)

The Central Power Authority of India (CEA) provides policy advice to the government and develops plans for the development of the country's electricity systems. It is a statutory body established under section 3(1) of the Electricity Supply Act 1948, which was repealed by section 70(1) of the Electricity Act 2003.

Two factors have resulted in a significant decline in the number of mine workers and mines in Kentucky. To begin, growing mechanisation has reduced the demand for workers in both Kentucky coal fields. This has been exacerbated further by the advent of strip mining. Second, the 1990 Clean Air Act Amendment's acid rain rule has rendered Kentucky coal, with its medium to high sulphur concentration, less desirable. This amendment forces businesses to either remove sulphur using scrubbers or switch to low-sulfur coal, which is abundant in western states such as Wyoming, or face fines for sulphur production.

While Eastern Kentucky coal has a higher sulphur content, it has a higher carbon density than Wyoming coal, which means that less of it must be burned to generate the same amount of electricity, resulting in lower per capita carbon dioxide emissions. Eastern coal is still extensively used throughout the United States.

Acid rain regulations have been far more severe on the Western Coalfield. Whereas over half of Eastern coal is rich in sulphur, practically all Western coal is. The state government has been pursuing "coal to gas" projects in recent years, which convert coal into liquid fuels that closely resemble natural gas or petroleum.

Economic Impact: From the 1980s to the 2000s, employment in the coal industry declined steadily, eventually stabilising at roughly 18,000 for the last decade. As of 2009, the coal sector employed 18,850 Kentuckians directly, accounting for less than 1% of the entire employment. However, when indirect employment in the industry is included, that figure nearly doubles to approximately 73,000. This figure includes jobs in education and the service industry in mining communities, as well as jobs in construction, transportation, and manufacturing that have a direct impact on the mining industry, as well as jobs at banks, law firms, and engineering firms that conduct business with the mining industry.

Coal Mining in Kentucky

In 1750, coal was discovered in Kentucky. Since the first commercial coal mine opened in 1820, coal has grown in economic significance and sparked debate about its environmental impact. As of 2010, the state had 442 working coal mines and less than 4,000 underground coal miners.

Enphase Energy invented the microinverter concept. A microinverter's primary concept is to convert, control, and monitor energy on a panel-by-panel basis, rather than across an array of panels. This limits the size of the inverter that may be mounted on the panel's back, resulting in a "AC panel." Such a system can be directly connected to the grid or to other systems to create larger arrays. This is in contrast to the more usual central inverter arrangement, in which numerous panels are connected in series on the DC side and then routed to a single larger inverter en masse.

Martin Fornage of Cerent Corporation was looking for new projects in the aftermath of the 2001 Telecoms crisis. When he became aware of the string inverter's poor performance on his ranch's solar array, he joined with another Cerent engineer, Raghu Belur, and founded PVI Solutions. At the end of 2006, the two hired Paul Nahi as CEO, and in early 2007, Fornage, Belur, and Nahi founded Enphase Energy, Inc. Following that, the first prototype microinverter was created. By 2008, Enphase had raised around $6 million in private financing and launched its first product, the M175, to middling success. Their second generation model, the 2009 M190, was significantly more successful, with around 400,000 units sold between 2009 and early 2010. Enphase quickly increased to a market share of 13% in residential systems by mid-2010, with the goal of reaching 20% by year's end.

They shipped their 500,000th inverter in early 2011 and their one millionth inverter in September of same year. The third generation M215 was released in the summer of 2011, and by the end of the year, they had sold over a million units across all models, bringing their installed base to 1.55 million inverters and a 34.4 percent market share. In 2013, a fourth generation, the M250, was introduced.

As of 2012, their inverters accounted for 53.5 percent of the home installation market in the United States, accounting for 72 percent of the global micro-inverter market. This places them as the world's sixth largest manufacturer of inverters of any kind. Enphase has conducted market research in Europe, beginning in France and expanding to include sales in France, Belgium, the Netherlands, Luxembourg, and Italy. They were, however, much more successful in the United Kingdom and, later, Australia. As of 2013, around 20% of their sales were generated outside of North America.

Enphase Micro Inverter

A solar micro-inverter converts direct current (DC) generated by a single solar module into alternating current (AC) (AC). Microinverters differ from typical solar inverters, which connect a single inverter to many solar panels. Several microinverters' output can be combined and often supplied into the grid. Enphase is a pioneering company in this segment.

According to a statement from the Ministry of New and Renewable Energy, the second phase of the green energy corridor project will include the addition of approximately 10,750 circuit kilometres (ckm) of transmission lines and 27,500 megavolt-amperes (MVA) transformation capacity of substations.
"This will promote environmentally sustainable growth and contribute to the country's long-term energy security." "Raj Kumar Singh, the Union Minister for Power, New and Renewable Energy, stated in a tweet.

"Today's CCEA decision strengthens India's efforts to meet the 450GW target in the renewable energy sector." Other advantages include increased energy security and environmentally friendly growth "Modi stated this in a tweet.
The corridor is expected to aid in ensuring that the massive injection of electricity into the national grid from intermittent energy sources such as solar and wind does not jeopardise the grid.

Govt nods yes for ₹12k crore to push green energy

The funds will be used for phase II of the national clean energy corridor.
The project is intended to assist India in meeting its climate commitments made at the COP-26 summit in Glasgow.

History
The energy crisis of the 1970s resulted in the establishment of the Commission for Additional Sources of Energy (CASE) in March 1981 within the Department of Science and Technology (India). The CASE was in charge of policy formulation and implementation, programme development for new and renewable energy, and coordination and intensification of R&D in the sector.

In 1982, the then-current Ministry of Energy established a new department, the Department of Non-conventional Energy Sources (DNES). DNES acquired CASE.

In 1992, the ministry was renamed the Ministry of Non-Conventional Energy Sources. It changed its name to its current one in October 2006.

MNRE: Ministry of New and Renewable Energy

The Ministry of New and Renewable Energy (MNRE) is a government of India ministry headed by an elected Union Cabinet Minister. It is primarily responsible for research and development, intellectual property protection, and international cooperation, promotion, and coordination in renewable energy sources such as wind, small hydro, biogas, and solar.
