| Energy
| Energy Access
This research and innovation programme will deliver new technologies and robust evidence on the critical barriers hampering systemic change and scaling up energy access, working with Southern researchers and entrepreneurs, to drive locally relevant innovation and delivery. This will have a transformative impact on deploying renewable energy solutions in developing countries, especially in South Asia and Africa.
Clean energy roadmap for Lakshadweep and Andaman & Nicobar Islands
July 1, 2017
| Energy
The project undertakes a comprehensive study on the greening of Andaman & Nicobar and Lakshadweep Islands. The objective is to study the options in de-carbonization of the energy portfolio for these islands and outline strategies for moving towards a low carbon pathway, in line with India's INDCs.
Replacing kerosene for solar in households for lighting
June 30, 2017
| Energy Access
The project aims to develop a business case for redirecting / re-routing kerosene subsidies in India towards the solar product value chain, and in essence, to replace the use of kerosene for basic lighting at the household level by making comparable solar based lighting alternatives available and affordable.

TERI in collaboration with ONGC aims to achieve the following specific objectives: 1. To bring improved, clean, and affordable energy to identified secondary schools in Golaghat and Sibsagar through installation of a solar power plant in each school; 2. To improve the knowledge of the school authorities and children in solar energy and create a conducive atmosphere for learning and development of children; 3. To enhance ONGC's visibility in the region through appropriate branding and promotion of their CSR vision.
Consultancy Assignment to study “Economic Rate of Return for various Renewable Energy Technologies”
June 7, 2017
| Energy
| Environment
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.
