Environment, Conflict and Cooperation Exhibition during DSDS 2012
January 19, 2012 to
February 2, 2012
The increasing demands linked with rapid population growth and economic development put escalating pressure on water resources. This is evidenced at the sectorial level by inadequate supplies, at the national level, by competing demands between sectors and by interstate disputes, and at the international level, by conflicts – or the threat thereof – between nations sharing transboundary water resources.
Chemical characterization of Jatropha specifies for identification of trees with high oil content and variable fatty acid
August 20, 2004 to
January 27, 2012
The main objecitve of this project is to evaluate the oil content and fatty acid composition of various jatropha collections.Climate Change Vulnarability Assessment for Rajasthan
December 1, 2010 to
January 19, 2012
Most methods of vulnerability assessments, in use at present, face conceptual, methodological or empirical challenges such as lack of an integrated framework, large-scale assumptions in case of data unavailability and a high degree of sensitivity to alternative methods for data aggregation etc. Lack of an integrated approach towards vulnerability assessments runs the risk of overlooking the inter-linkages between various sectors and feedbacks. The issue of conflicting scales however, makes the integration at different temporal, spatial and sectoral scales complex.Competence Platform on Energy Crop and Agroforestry Systems - Africa
January 1, 2007 to
January 19, 2012
TERI is part of a network project that aims to establish a platform for policy dialogue and capacity building, and identify pathways for the sustainable provision of bioenergy in Africa.Specific objectives of the project are:
1) to improve the quality of life and create alternative means of income for the rural population in Africa;
2) to aid the preservation of intact ecosystems in arid and semi-arid regions in Africa; and
3) to enhance the equitable exchange of knowledge between EU and developing countries.
Conducting Exposure cum Sensitization Visits to the Solar (Lantern) Charging Stations set up by TERI under its Lighting a Billion Lives (LaBL) campaign
September 13, 2011 to
January 7, 2012
On the initiative of the Planning Commission, Government of India, the Ministry of New and Renewable Energy (MNRE), Government of India, approached TERI for organizing sensitization visits (for the government officials of the Left Wing Extremism (LWE) affected districts of 8 states), to the solar lantern charging stations set up by TERI under its Lighting a Billion Lives (LaBL) campaign. With an intertwined livelihood dimension, amenable to the unemployed youth, the proposal was essentially conceived with a view to accelerate development in the LWE affected districts of the country.Integrated Energy Management Master Plan for Bhutan
January 10, 2005 to
January 1, 2012
The main objective of the project is to develop an Integrated Energy Master Plan for the Royal Government of Bhutan. Project activities consists of demand and resource data collection, analysis of the energy scenario, and projection of energy demand and supply scenarios till 2020. The project team will also study energy policies of the Royal Government of Bhutan and recommend policy initiatives for sustainable development.An Economic Analysis for Strategic Petroleum Reserves in India
February 22, 2010 to
January 1, 2012
The study aims to provide analytical economic and policy inputs towards Strategic Petroleum Reserves planning in India and would be value adding in terms of identification of criteria for short-listing locations and funding options, assessment of costs and ownership options as well as the economics of a petroleum storage hub.Promoting Renewable Energy for Industrial Applications in India
September 20, 2007 to
January 1, 2012
The project is a collaborative study by TERI and UNIDO. The objective of the project is to study SME sector in India and identify the potential renewable energy technologies for industrial applications with reference to the SME sector in India and organize an Expert Group Meeting (a two day event to be held in Delhi during 18-19th December 2007) to discuss the main issues and findings. The outcomes of this study and the meeting would later brought out as a publication.Pilot Project on solar PV based hybrid charging station for e-bikes
February 1, 2009 to
December 27, 2011
The proposed solar PV based hybrid charging station for e-bikes would consist of installed solar PV array in conjunction with grid and necessary charge controllers for charging the e-bikes. In addition the hybrid system would also have the option to charge buffer batteries for other applications.The objectives of the project are
(a) Design and development of solar PV based hybrid charging station for e-bikes,
(b) Field testing and customization of the charging station,
(c) Finding roadmap for commercialization of such activity.
