INDIA'S QUEST FOR GLOBAL SOLAR THERMAL INDUSTRIAL PROCESS LEADER

摘要

Looking at the huge heating demand and reducing dependence on imports of fuel oil India has the quest to quest for becoming global leader for deploying solar thermal industrial process heat and meeting the identified target of 6.4 GW. The areas that need to be addressed can be summarised as below:1. MNRE to create demand worth INR 100,000 m~2 in 3 years in food processing industries,automobile and defence etc. 2. MNRE to invite manufacturers to develop products and infrastructure to bring down the coststhrough R&D and have budget for3. Make the available DNI data of various locations to public at no cost. 4. Introduce performance based incentive equivalent of MWth or MTOE avoided. 5. Output be close to the manufacturer's claim & co-relate to the DNI of that area. Any reductionbe suitably penalised. A Renewable Heat Incentive (RHI) policy need to be framed. 6. Provide concessional loan to manufacturing industries to scale up operations and business. 7. Perform Achieve Trade (PAT) operated by BEE must have a special mention about solarthermal heating in their curriculum. 8. Large scale capacity building workshops for skilled personnel for better upkeep andmaintenance9. Encourage ESCo model as it ensures proper operation of the installations and can give is the recovery. Easy funding be made available for ESCo projects.
