A Must attend for Solar Projects Developers
Dear Sir/Ma’am,
|
Metis in association with AF - Mercados EMI and First Green Consulting are pleased to announce first ever two-day workshop on Solar Power Project Development, February 22 and 23, Hotel Shangri-La, New Delhi. |
The proposed workshop will provide an incisive map of the market opportunities, segments, models and barriers in solar, guiding the participants through the site selection, technology selection, finance, planning & development process in a systematic step-by-step approach. International and Indian Case studies will focus on the soar photovoltaic (SPV) as well as on the Concentrated Solar Power (CSP) technologies for grid connected power generation. The workshop will be conducted by some of the most experienced industry professionals.
The Indian Renewable Energy sector is progressing rapidly. Installed grid connected renewable power generation capacity of India has reached 21.12 GW. This is more than 11% of the total installed capacity base of the country. The demand for power has been increasing in India due to the growth in the Country’s economy. Over the last 10 years, energy and peak demand shortage averaged around 10.3% and 12.9% respectively. In meeting this growing demand, renewable energy is playing an ever increasing role.
The availability of abundant solar energy has prompted policy makers of the country to frame favorable policies and regulations to develop the solar energy resources. India has today only around 42 grid interactive solar photovoltaic power plants with aggregate capacity of around 143.5 MW, that generate around 240 million units of
electricity in a year, in sharp contrast to the estimated potential of 50,000 MW. Most of the existing capacity today is off-grid and for standalone applications in lighting, telecommunication, small power requirements, battery charging, water heating, cooking etc.
2011 has been a remarkable year for the Indian solar industry. The country's huge potential is finally being realised and the industry is rapidly developing and turning India into one of the world's biggest PV markets. In just one year, India's installed capacity has risen from 22 MW to 143 MW and is expected to extend up to 400 MW within next one year. This is only just the beginning. The various bidding rounds issued by the national and regional governments have been met with unprecedented enthusiasm from national and international players. The number of projects is continually growing and India's pipeline is expanding explosively. By 2014, India is expected to have 14.5 GW of
installed solar PV capacity. Some experts have predicted that this base will hit 33.4 GW by 2022.
Under the JNNSM scheme of MNRE, NVVN Phase I, Batch II bidding results shows that there will be addition of near about 350 MW of Solar PV within next one year if all of the selected projects are executed successfully. The present central and state policies for Solar Energy is developing favorable conditions and various new business models are emerging which reinforce the exponential market growth for solar projects. The current opportunities are attracting intense excitement from entrepreneurs and investors to be a part of the solar growth story of India. However, these opportunities are not without challenges. There are various types of contractual structures and financing mechanisms to contend with. Technologies, business models and market dynamics are evolving. The success or failure of solar projects depends not only on getting units installed,
but learning how to financially structure projects.

Key Highlights
This workshop is structured in such a way that it will provide a good balance between theory and practice. The theory will be put in practice with the use of several real-life case studies. The objective of the interactive case studies would be to enable application of the understanding and knowledge gained at the workshop in preparation and delivery of an effective bid / implementation of electricity portfolio, in a simulated environment.:
