The project objective is to study the Economic Rate of Return (ERR) for various Renewable Energy Technologies (RETs) in India. The study comprises determination of Financial Rate of Return (FRR) for various RETs (solar/wind/biomass/ small hydro etc.) based on primary research and estimation of ERR based on secondary research of socio-economic costs and benefits from each RET, e.g. savings in carbon emissions, local air pollution, avoided health impacts, employment generation etc.
BIGASTORE: Biogas driven cold storages for Sub Zero applications in India
May 22, 2017
The objective of the proposed project is to design and engineer cold storage container using bio-waste as energy source. Using bio-waste as energy source reduces high losses in food production and storage that is caused due to missing cold storage and cooling chains in developing and emerging countries. Such countries are also affected by a lack of bio-waste treatment and uncontrolled dumping, which highly compromises on the hygiene of the public. As bio-waste and cooling demand often occur at the same time in the food industry (e.g.
