   Brakes India and SunEdison forms a JV for solar power
   
   Business Line reported that Brakes India Limited, part of the TVS group, has formed a JV with US-based SunEdison for solar power.
   
   Venture’s 7.72 MW Tamil Nadu solar plant, commissioned on Wednesday, will supply power to Brakes India
   
   Such a structure, better known as ‘group captive model’, is common in the wind industry but new in solar.
   
   SunEdison officials said that the plant happens to be the largest solar power plant under the group captive scheme in India.
   
   The 'group captive model,' where private power companies and power purchasers set up JVs that will own the power plant is common in Tamil Nadu.
   
   This is because such alliances have one major advantage: the State does not levy the 'cross subsidy surcharge' on the power sold.
   
   ‘Cross subsidy surcharges’ are levied on third party sales of power so as to make the buyers to defray for the subsidised power that Governments give to the poor and the underprivileged.
   
   While many States have waived the cross subsidy surcharge on wind and solar in order to encourage renewable energy installations, Tamil Nadu charges INR 3.46 per KWh.

   NTPC issues 750 MW solar power tenders
   
   Clean Technica reported that the Indian government’s plan to aggressively expand large-scale solar power capacity addition through state-owned companies has started taking shape.
   
   NTPC Limited has issued 3 tenders to set up a total solar photovoltaic power capacity of 750 MW. This capacity will be developed in batches of 250 MW each in 3 separate states. Each batch of 250 MW would in turn be developed as 5 projects of 50 MW capacity each.
   
   As per the requirements of the tenders, all companies selected to develop projects following the completion of the bidding process will have to use solar PV modules manufactured in India. This requirement is similar to the Domestic Content Requirement first seen in the auctions conducted by the central government under the National Solar Mission.
   
   As per the domestic content requirement, project developers need to procure modules fully manufactured in India. Solar PV wafers and starting substrates can be imported, however, all modules need to be assembled in India only.
   
   Some media agencies have misinterpreted this requirement and have reported that foreign companies would not be allowed to participate in the bidding process. In fact, any company from any country can participate, however, just as Indian companies cannot procure imported modules, nor can international companies.
   
   The tariff bids for these projects could be comparatively higher than projects that are not obligated to use India-made modules.
   
   Imported modules are usually packaged with a very low-cost debt financing deal from development banks. Thus the cost of generation of DCR-bound projects will be slightly highly.
   
   The NTPC tenders probably represent the largest solar PV capacity put on auction that will be set up using only Indian-made modules. An auction under the National Solar Mission allocated 375 MW DCR capacity last year.
   
   NTPC Limited, being a state-owned company, can auction the entire capacity through Indian-made modules and would still be compliant with World Trade Organisation rules.

   India to have world's largest 750 MW solar power plant in MP
   
   Times of India reported that next year on Independence Day, India will have the world's largest 750 MW solar power plant in Rewa district of Madhya Pradesh, which will pip America's much-vaunted 550 MW Desert Sunlight solar project in California, commissioned 4 days ago.
   
   Acquisition of 1,500 hectares of land for the INR 4000 crore project is close to completion and government agencies are likely to invite tenders from developers by April. The state government is setting up the plant in a JV with Solar Energy Corporation of India.
   
   The expected cost of power production is pegged at Rs 5 per/unit which would be lower than production costs in any solar project in the country, including the one at Neemuch in MP and Mehsana and Patan in Gujarat.
   
   Mr SR Mohanty, additional chief secretary for new and renewable energy, said that "We are planning to inaugurate the plant on August 15th 2016. The plant will be developed in three segments of 250 MW each. Land acquisition will be over by end of month and over 90% land for the project is owned by government."
   
   Acquisition for remaining 300 hectares of non-government land is continuing. Mr Rahul Jain, Rewa district collector, said that "There are no hiccups as the land is non-agricultural and barren."
   
   Mr Mohanty said that "No clearance from pollution control board is required for the project. We have to sign a JV agreement between state-run PSU Urja Vikas Nigam and Solar Energy Corporation of India and a detailed project report will be prepared. Preliminary reports are already prepared and we will complete formalities by April and we will be in a position to invite tenders."
   
   Hes aid that "State government will help developers get the project financed with easy loans and little paperwork. World Bank has given its nod to fund 49% of the cost at concessional rates. Developers who quote the lowest power tariff will bag the project. And at least 20% power produced from the solar plant will be for Madhya Pradesh.”
   
   The plant is being set up in Gurh tehsil of Rewa district and will straddle 5 villages of Barseta.

    Second solar energy park planned near TATA Steel Scunthorpe
    
    Scunthorpe Telegraph reported that a consultation is being held over the creation of a solar energy park next to Bottesford Beck.
    
    Land off Mortal Ash Hill has been earmarked for the potential development, which, if given the go ahead, could generate enough electricity to power nearly 6,000 homes. More than 100,000 panels could be built to sit on 90 acres of land.
    
    This comes after work started earlier this month on North Lincolnshire's first solar farm at land on Raventhorpe Farm at Broughton, which is expected to help power TATA Steel. The planning application has been submitted to North Lincolnshire Council and a consultation is expected to begin later this week.
    
    Farmer Mr Phillip Marshall, pictured above, who owns the land, claims overflow from the nearby Bottesford Beck has meant the land can no longer be used for farming, so he had to seek an alternative use for it.
    
    He said that "We've submitted it for 90 acres of land which has been flooded and is of no agricultural use. It's an alternative to having nothing there at all. We think it will take three or four months to construct. We don't know if the application for 90 acres will be successful. We might get less. The field is completely screened by trees."
    
    Mr Marshall, who claims to have lost thousands of pounds worth of crops due to flooding caused by overflow from the Bottesford Beck, said there are constant puddles on this particular piece of land.
    
    He said that he can't carry out work on the Beck to alleviate the problem of flooding because of historic pollution at the bottom, which if disturbed could damage wildlife.
    
    Mr James Wallwork, development director at the firm, said that the application has been eight months in the planning. We have submitted the planning application and gone through a long process. There's 106,364 panels which will create 25,261 megawatts of power per year, which is the equivalent of what 5,950 homes would use in a year. Access to the farm will come via the A18.
    
    He said that "We will have a construction traffic management plan in place during the building of the park and will ensure any disruption is kept to a minimum. Once the farm is up and running, it's fairly passive. There is no noise and the substations will be placed off the A18, so it's far away from residents. We're also looking at planting some wild flowers near the Beck."

    India govt approves NTPC's 15,000 MW solar power projects
    
    Reuters reported that the union cabinet approved state-run power producer NTPC Limited's plans to set up 15,000 MW of grid-connected solar projects, which would be completed in three tranches.
    
    The rapidly falling cost of solar power has ignited interest in its potential in Asia's 3rd largest economy, which relies on coal for 3/5 of its energy needs while solar supplies less than 1 percent.
    
    Mr Narendra Modi PM of India aims to make India one of the world's largest renewable energy markets, targeting 100,000 MW of output by 2022 from just 3,000 MW currently.

    Cabinet approves 15,000 MW of grid connected Solar PV Power plants
    
    It is reported that the Union Cabinet today gave its approval for the implementation of the scheme for setting up 15,000 MW of grid-connected Solar PV Power projects under the National Solar Mission through NTPC/ NTPC Vidyut Vyapar Nigam Limited in 3 tranches.
    
    An official press release said that the 3 tranches would include 3000 MW under Tranche-l under mechanism of Bundling with Unallocated Coal based Thermal Power and fixed levellised tariffs; 5,000 MW under Tranche-ll with some support from Government to be decided after getting some experience while implementing Tranche-l and balance 7,000 MW under Tranche-Ill without any financial support from the Government.
    
    The release said that the successful completion of the additional 15,000 MW capacity of grid-connected solar PV power generation projects, mainly in the private sector, with largely private investment, under the National Solar Mission would accelerate the process of achieving grid tariff parity for solar power and also help reduce consumption of kerosene and diesel, which is presently in use to meet the unmet demand.
    
    In Tranche-l, which will be Batch-II of Phase-II of the National Solar Mission, 3000 MW capacity of solar PV power plants will be based on bundling of solar power with unallocated thermal power in the ratio of 2:1, for which the required 1500 MW unallocated thermal power has been made available by the Ministry of Power.
    
    The bundled power will be allotted to various States that come forward to (i) provide land for setting up the solar power projects, (ii) purchase a major portion of the bundled solar power for consumption within the State and (iii) ensure connectivity to the solar power project.
    
    The capacity allotted to each such State will be set up through developers, to be selected through international competitive bidding by NTPC /NVVN. Both private and government companies would be free to bid for projects.
    
    The release said 1000 MW capacity out of the 3000 MW under the bundling scheme will be set up on land already identified in Andhra Pradesh. The balance 2000 MW capacity under the Bundling Scheme will be allotted in other interested States that come forward.
    
    It is estimated that implementation of Tranche-l of the scheme will entail total investment of over INR 18,000 crore, all of which will be met by project developers, mainly private.
    
    A Payment Security Mechanism / Working Capital Fund with an estimated corpus of INR 2300 crore to cover three months payment for bundled capacity of 3000 MW of Solar Capacity with 1500 MW NTPC Coal Power, will be set up to ensure bankability of PPAs and timely payment to developers. This will be evolved through collaborative efforts of Government of India and solar project developers. The modalities for setting up of Payment Security Mechanism / Working Capital Fund will be finalized subsequently. Accruals from encashment of gank guarantees, penalties on developers and so on will also go into this fund.
    
    Some capacity will be earmarked out of the total procurement under this scheme with provisions of domestically manufactured solar cells as well as modules. The quantity to be fixed with Domestic Content Requirement in each tender will be prescribed by Ministry of New and Renewable Energy based on the prevailing market conditions from time to time. Bids received under both the categories will be evaluated and successful bidders selected independently.
    
    Further, this DCR will also be technology agnostic that is applied on both the crystalline silicon and thin film SPV cells and modules.
    
    The first Phase of the National Solar Mission had a target of 1100 MW for grid-connected solar power generation capacity, against which 1685 MW was set up in the country under various schemes. Further capacity addition of 9,000 MW comprising 3,000 MW under Central schemes and 6,000 MW under State initiatives/ other mechanisms was envisaged In the second phase of the Mission.
    
    Now that sufficient experience is available in India in this field and the Government is keen to expeditiously promote solar power in the country, it is proposed to give a quantum jump to development of solar power in India through market driven approach, wherein the role of subsidies and direct Government support is gradually phased out. Specifically, it is proposed to significantly enhance capacity addition in the second phase itself under Central schemes through various mechanisms.

    Telangana invites bids for 1,000 MW solar PV projects - Mr Kumar
    
    Mr Aravind Kumar, principal secretary of energy, said that the Telangana government is in the process of inviting bids for setting up 1,000 Mw of solar photo-voltaic power generation farms through a reverse bidding process.
    
    Mr Kumar said that “During the last development of 505 MW solar projects, the price discovery was INR 645 per unit. Keeping this as a base price, we are planning to invite the tenders for 1,000 MW, through a reverse bidding process, within a month. These projects, with a cumulative capacity of 1,505 MW, will be commissioned by March 2016.”
    
    Reverse auction is a type of auction in which sellers bid for the prices at which they are willing to sell their goods and services. However, in a regular auction, a seller puts up an item and buyers place bids till the close of the auction. At the end, the item goes to the highest bidder.
    
    Speaking on the sidelines of the 'Solar energy investment and technology forum' organised by UBM India here today, Mr Kumar said that the Telangana government had set a target to develop 5,000 MW of solar energy projects in the next 5 years.
    
    He said that "This is in addition to the target set by the state government to generate 20,000 MW of thermal power over the next 5 years, from the present 4,400 MW. Telangana as such was an ideal location to harness solar energy.”
    
    On how the state energy department was gearing up to meet the shortage of power during summer, Mr Kumar said that while the state was already receiving 500 MW from Kerala, 800 MW of naphtha-based power was being arranged for short-term buying.
    
    He said that “A shortfall of around 1,000 MW is expected for the next three months. We, however, are confident that we will tide over this crisis. The state government is also trying to source power from other state grids.”
    
    Stating that the state government was laying more emphasis on renewable energy resources, Mr Kumar said that his department was also considering encouraging development of wind energy projects.
    
    He said that "The net energy gains from wind power projects are very low. We, however, are receiving many proposals from companies evincing interest to set up wind energy projects in the state. We are currently evaluating these proposals."

    Delhi Metro harnesses solar power to run 3 stations
    
    PTI reported that with a daily generation of 3,000 units of solar power, the Delhi Metro may not be meeting all its electrical needs. But it's enough to run 3 stations,Dwarka sector 21, Pragati Maidan and Anand Vihar.
    
    In an effort to go green, DMRC had last year started the solar power project. At present, it is generating a total of 750 KW, which is approximately 3,000 units per day, from 4 locations.The plants at Dwarka sector 21, Anand Vihar and Pragati Maidan Metro stations produce 500 KW, 115 KW and 85KW respectively. The other one at the residential complex in Pushp Vihar produces 50 KW.
    
    Mr A K Gupta, director of electrical, said that "At present, the 750 KW power is being generated from four locations, including a residential complex at Pushp Vihar. Our aim is to generate 20 MW by March next year."
    
    Mr Gupta said that “1 MW is equivalent to around 4,000 units per day. With a target to generate 20 MW, Delhi Metro is planning to install these solar power panels at 4 stations in Gurgaon as well as Yamuna Bank depot and station, Sarita Vihar and Sultanpur stations and sub stations. The energy from the solar plants is used primarily for lighting and other such purposes.”
    
    He said that "While the amount of energy produced is a fraction of the annual amount used by the system, the fact that we are generating enough energy to operate a station is a step towards self sustenance."
    
    According to figures provided by the Delhi Metro, the 3,000 units produced every day can light up 10 underground stations during the daytime or 50 elevated stations.
    
    The Delhi Metro official added that the designed capacity at the four stations in Gurgaonas well as Sarita Vihar, Sultanpuri and the substations is much higher.

    China's Trina Solar to supply 48 MW modules for projects in India
    
    It is reported that Chinese photovoltaic module producer Trina Solar Limited TSL received a contract from ACME Cleantech Solutions Limited of India for supplying 48 MW of solar modules. Per the agreement, Trina Solar will supply nearly 188,000 Honey modules TSM-PC05A during the Q1 of 2015.
    
    The Honey modules will be installed on two ground-mounted solar power plants, which are expected to generate 81.6 GWh of power each year. These power plants will help to lower the carbon footprint of an energy hungry nation.
    
    Trina Solar has been supplying solar modules to ACME since 2013 and, with this new agreement, the total supply of solar modules will reach 70 MW.
    
    India is developing at a rapid clip driving the demand for power. The Indian government has set a target of producing nearly 1,75,000 MW of electricity through renewable sources by 2022, comprising 100,000 MW solar, 60,000 MW wind, 10,000 MW biomass and 5000 MW small hydro.
    
    Since the major share of renewable energy is expected to come from solar, we expect India to soon become a lucrative solar module export market. India's domestic solar module production is not large enough to meet the target set by its government. As a result, the country will have to depend on module imports to attain its renewable goals.
    
    India is on the cusp of a renewable energy revolution with investments of more than USD 100 billion in the next seven years. We expect leading solar energy companies like First Solar Inc.

    Zelf stroom opwekken met zonnepanelen: loont het?
    
    
    maandag 16 maart 2015 | 4 reacties
    
    Steeds meer mensen wekken zelf elektriciteit op, bijvoorbeeld met zonnepanelen. Als uw dak groot genoeg is, kunt u net zoveel stroom opwekken als u verbruikt, of zelfs meer. Stroom die u niet zelf gebruikt, kunt u terugleveren aan het net. Hoe werkt dat eigenlijk en levert het nog wat op?
    
    Salderen en terugleveren
    
    Wekt u zelf elektriciteit op met zonnepanelen dan kunt u dit direct in huis gebruiken. Hiervoor betaalt u uiteraard niets aan uw energieleverancier. De opgewekte elektriciteit wordt direct naar uw apparaten gestuurd die erom vragen. Maar wat als de zon volop schijnt, terwijl u niet thuis bent? Dan is de kans groot dat u stroom opwekt die u niet verbruikt. Uw elektriciteit wordt dan automatisch 'ingevoed' op het openbare net. Dit heet teruglevering. Het wordt dan via het net naar anderen gebracht, die op dat moment wel stroom nodig hebben. Maar als de zon niet schijnt, heeft u ook stroom nodig. U verbruikt op dat moment meer dan dat u zelf opwekt. Deze elektriciteit krijgt u van uw energieleverancier. De door u teruggeleverde en verbruikte hoeveelheid elektriciteit mag u op jaarbasis tegen elkaar wegstrepen. Dat noemen we salderen. U betaalt dus alleen uw netto verbruik per jaar.
    
    Redelijke terugleververgoeding
    
    Blijkt na deze verrekening dat u meer elektriciteit heeft teruggeleverd dan verbruikt (overschot aan teruglevering) dan ontvangt u voor de extra teruggeleverde elektriciteit een 'redelijke' terugleververgoeding van uw energieleverancier. U vindt hier een overzicht van de vergoedingen per energieleverancier.
    
    Geschikte meter nodig
    
    Wilt u stroom terugleveren, dan heeft u een meter nodig die registreert hoeveel stroom u verbruikt én levert. Een slimme meter maakt niet inzichtelijk wat zonnepanelen opbrengen, maar wel hoeveel stroom er teruggeleverd wordt aan het net. Uw netbeheerder kan u vertellen of uw meter geschikt is. Uw netbeheerder registreert naast uw verbruik ook uw levering en stuurt de meterstanden door naar uw energieleverancier.
    Niet alle meters registreren de teruggeleverde elektriciteit apart. De meter kan bijvoorbeeld
    ook ‘achteruitlopen’ als u teruglevert aan het net. Uw jaarlijkse meterstand is dan meteen uw netto verbruik.
    
    Watt? Wattpiek!
    
    Bij zonnepanelen hangt het geleverde vermogen af van de hoeveelheid zon die erop valt. Het vermogen van zonnepanelen (PV) wordt uitgedrukt in wattpiek (Wp). Dat is het piekvermogen dat bij optimale zoninstraling zou kunnen worden opgewekt.
    
    Na onderzoek van de Universiteit Utrecht gaat de overheid er van uit dat de jaaropbrengst van een PV-systeem gemiddeld 875 kWh per kWp bedraagt. De populairste zonnepanelen hebben een piekvermogen van zo'n 250 wattpiek. Per stuk leveren deze zonnepanelen dus zo'n 220 kWh aan energie per jaar. Gemiddeld verbruikt een huishouden 3500 kWh per jaar. Met zestien panelen op uw dak op het zuiden, is de kans groot dat uw elektriciteitsrekening ongeveer op nul uitkomt en misschien krijgt u dan zelfs geld terug. Het is uit financieel oogpunt overigens niet aan te raden meer zonnepanelen te installeren dan u nodig heeft om uw eigen jaarlijkse stroomverbruik mee op te wekken.
    
    Btw terugvragen
    
    Wanneer u elektriciteit teruglevert bent u officieel een kleine ondernemer. Dit kunt u melden bij de Belastingdienst via het formulier Opgaaf startende onderneming (niet ingeschreven in het Handelsregister). Voordeel is dat u dan de btw over uw zonnepanelen terug kunt vragen. Volgens MilieuCentraal levert teruggave van de btw ruim 400 euro op bij de aanschaf en installatie van een standaardpakket van zes zonnepanelen (1400 wattpiek) à 2900 euro. Het betekent ook dat u btw over uw teruggeleverde stroom moet betalen. Maar in de praktijk krijgt u hier vaak vrijstelling voor, mits het bedrag niet te hoog is. Meer weten? Kijk op de website van de Belastingdienst.
    
    Op de website van Milieu Centraal staat meer informatie over het kiezen en plaatsen van zonnepanelen.

    Jawel voda, het loont. Zeker als je ook je verbruik(ers) onder de loep legt en de juiste conclusies trekt en dito maatregelen treft.

    Leuk, dat jij dit hier post, hierbij dan post 580 op het eindeloze, mega Energie forum!
    
    Vanaf 26 maart, als het weer goed is gaat Voda ook SOLAR!
    
    Dan worden er 10 260Wp panelen van het merk BYD geplaatst op het platte dak, hier in Den Haag. Geschatte opbrengst per jaar tussen de 2200-2300 Kw. De hele installatie, panelen, roestvrijstalen rekken, bijna 1000 kg ballast!, extra elektra groep, kabels, pc informatie en omvormer, kost slechts 3000 netto (de BTW is terug te vragen).
    
    De opbrengst is nagenoeg gelijk aan mijn huidige verbruik. Na saldering van vaste lasten zo als Netbeheer, meterhuur etc., moet ik na verrekening van de energie heffing, zelfs geld terugkrijgen!
    
    Hoe dan ook, de terugverdientijd is ongeveer 6 jaar! Daarna is het dik extra inkomsten. Levensduur minimaal 25 jaar. Verlies rendement in die 25 jaar is volgens opgave < 15 %. 12 jaar garantie op alle onderdelen.
    
    Als SOLAR fan heb ik hier lang op gewacht, maar nu is ook de tijd op te investeren. Iemand die ik ken heeft deze panelen ook, en ze doen wat het belooft, flink opbrengen!
    
    Ik hou jullie op de hoogte van de ontwikkelingen.
    
    Oh, ik heb nog zo'n fijne energie meter met draaischijf (dubbel telwerk), die heerlijk terug kan draaien. Van mijn leven komt er geen "slimme" meter in mijn huis!!

    Ah, een dubbeltariefmeter, die heb ik ook. Da's mooi, want die draait dan door de week op het hoge tarief lekker terug overdag (zoals vandaag).
    Maar houdt rekening met het oneindige geldtekort van onze regering, deze kunnen je terugverdientijd misschien nog danig verlengen.
    En, zoals genoemd, zorg dat je inzicht krijgt in je verbruik, per vertrek, per apparaat, whatever, en neem zonodig maatregelen want hier kan je extra terugverdienen. Maar als je die draaischijf eenmaal achteruit ziet draaien dan wil je alleen maar minder, minder. kWh-en op je tellers dus. Dan ga je kijken waar je nog meer winst kan behalen.
    Heeeeeeeeeeel veel meer info op andere fora vol slimmeriken:
