Study on local manufacaturing of Renewable Energy Technology Components in East Africa
December 2, 2009 to
October 28, 2010
This study should support the overall work of UNIDO in the area of Renewable Energy with a focus on two countries of East-Africa viz. Ethiopia and Uganda. The overall objective of this study will be to contribute towards strengthening the local manufacturing sector in East-Africa to produce renewable energy technologies and/or systems. The specific objective will be to identify, map, and prioritise components and/or systems for two renewable energy technologies over the short, medium and long term that could be manufactured in Ethiopia and Uganda.Framework for cooperation for the identified MSME clusters and preparation of the project document
September 21, 2009 to
October 23, 2010
The specific objectives of the project preparation support activity are: (1) To prepare cluster-specific reports for all the 12 clusters pre-selected by UNIDO.Alternative energy generation options in India
April 26, 2010 to
October 23, 2010
The study aims to examine electricity generating strategies in India, given the need to significantly reduce carbon intensity in response to climate change.Particular attention will be paid to non-coal based generation (such as solar, wind, geothermal and nuclear), and what is known about the technology trajectories, costs, carbon intensity, and job creation possibilities associated with each; as well as the role of the state in developing and implementing such strategies.Molecular characterization of Jatropha curcas germplasm
October 16, 2006 to
October 15, 2010
In this proposal, we intend to a) estimate the molecular genetic diversity of Jatropha curcas accessions characterised for oil content and agronomic traits under DBT funded network project, b) development of a molecular linkage map using AFLP markers and c) identification of molecular markers linked with genes /QTLs controlling seed yield and oil content. This will help in rapid genetic improvement of Jatropha curcas through hybridization and selection.GOF Climate Change and Energy Programme: ISS (Information Sharing System) to enhance coping capacities of farming communities in dealing with climate variability and climate change
August 1, 2005 to
October 3, 2010
The overall goal of the project is to enhance the adaptive capacity of farming communities to cope with climate variability and long-term climate change The project objective is to demonstrate usefulness of Information Sharing System (ISS) in assisting agricultural farmers cope with climate variability and long term climate change The project includes strengthening channels of information flow to enable farmers? better coping with climate variability and long-term change. The project aims to strengthen ?agri and climate? information reaching the farming communities.Preparation of detailed project report of a 5 MW solar photovoltaic grid connected power project at Anantpur, AP
