Regional training workshop on remote village electrification
June 4, 2004 to
January 31, 2005
It was established at the start of the 9th Five Year Plan that of the nearly 80,000 un-electrified villages in the country, 18,000 villages are located in remote and geographically isolated areas where it would be impossible or very expensive to lay transmission lines and provide electricity through extensions of the existing grid. High priority is being accorded by the Ministry of Non-conventional Energy Sources (MNES) to remote village electrification through non-conventional energy resources such as biomass, small hydro, solar energy, wind energy, hybrid systems, etc..Joint scoping study for analysing the programatic linkages and institutional arrangements for mainstreaming environment
December 16, 2003 to
January 31, 2005
Detailed feasibility study of DDG projects at four (one hydro and three biomass) new villages in Korba site
June 20, 2004 to
January 31, 2005
In order to ensure a holistic and integrated approach to provide electricity, NTPC has undertaken a site specific study through TERI for setting up of DDG (decentralized distributed generation) projects for village electrification.The broad objectives of the study are as follows.
Induction of genetic variability for generation of prolific fatty acids composition for value addition in B.juncea
October 1, 2001 to
January 31, 2005
Building energy efficiency awareness in schools through curriculum interventions and sensitization programmes
August 1, 2003 to
January 31, 2005
In an attempt to sensitise the young minds, the Bureau of Energy Efficiency (BEE) under the Ministry of Power has set the ball rolling in the form of an innovative programme addressing the need for awareness on energy conservation within the school network through formal and non- formal approaches. This included a series of sensitization programmes and an attempt to develop draft recommendations on a national curriculum on energy conservation for classes 6 - 9 in schools across the country.
Preparation of a database of energy-efficient and energy conservation products, systems, etc., available in industrial, commercial, domestic, and agricultural sub-sectors
May 1, 2003 to
January 31, 2005
Bioremediation of pesticide-contaminated soils and its effect on soil functionality
May 16, 2000 to
December 31, 2004
The main objectives of this project are to:to carry out bioremediation of hexachlorocyclohexane and methyl parathion in pots and trays and in the field;
biodegrade endosulphan;
to carry out fermentation studies.
