Feasibility Study for Solar Power Supply to Stations and Level Crossing Gates on Bharuch Dahej Railway Line

September 2, 2013 to
June 23, 2014
| Energy

With the increasing prices of diesel, the cost of electric power becomes high and the need of power can be met through Solar PV system. Therefore, TERI proposes to carry out a feasibility study on the installation of Solar PV power system for the railway stations and level crossing gates on Bharuch Dahej line of Bharuch Dahej Railway Company Limited in Gujarat.

The scope of work for this feasibility study is given as follows:

Study the existing energy scenarios of the railway stations and railway crossing signals;

Testing and long-term performance evaluation of SPV lighting systems

March 1, 2011 to
June 23, 2014
The Ministry of New and Renewable Energy (MNRE), GoI has sanctioned funds to TERI for carrying out long-term performance evaluation and development of new designs of Solar Lighting Systems in TERI's Solar Lighting Laboratory located in the TERI University campus. TERI has been conducting extensive testing and evaluation of a wide variety of Solar Lighting Systems with the commitment to evaluate and find cost-effective and cutting-edge solar lighting solutions largely as a part of its Lighting a Billion Lives' initiative.

Nearly 1.3 billion people continue to remain without access to electricity and 2.6 billion do not have access to clean cooking facilities (World Energy Outlook, 2012).

E for Energy Efficiency - Phase II

September 23, 2013 to
May 23, 2014
| Energy
| Energy Efficiency

The increase in demand for energy in response to industrialization, urbanization, and societal affluence has led to considerable fossil fuels burning, which in turn has an adverse impact on the environment. Thus, it is of paramount importance that energy is conserved and efficiently used. It has been estimated that nearly 25,000 MW can be saved by implementing end-use energy efficiency and demand side management measures throughout India.

Maintenance of Plantation at Malara Green Cap

September 1, 2010 to
May 22, 2014
TERI would help TCL to develop a sustainable green cover over overburden dumps besides improving other physical measures using mycorrhizal technology in various plant species of economic importance so that:

1/ The area is converted to better substrates for plant growth;

2/ The tree/plant species used for afforestation could be identified based on economic importance(herbaceous plants, foliage plants, fuel wood, pulp and paper, etc.);

European responses to climate change: Deep emissions, reductions and mainstreaming of mitigation and adaptation

January 1, 2010 to
May 19, 2014
The RESPONSES project addresses EU policy challenges by: developing new global low emissions scenarios, placing EU efforts in a global context; building an approach for assessing EU policies against mitigation and adaptation objectives and for developing alternative policy options; applying this framework in five EU policy sectors (water and agriculture, biodiversity, regional development/ infrastructure, health and energy), linked by a set of cross-sectoral integrative activities; and synthesizing the results to new policy strategies.

Effective School Management and Leadership Programme
