- The solar energy industry - installation and manufacturing opportunities.
- Electric cars – energy storage, converters etc. for electric cars and the needed infrastructure
Wind energy is a renewable resource that will never run out as long as the sun continues to heat the Earth and cause temperature variations that generate wind. Wind turbines do not require traditional electricity sources to operate and have low maintenance needs, making wind a relatively cheap renewable energy option. Wind power also reduces greenhouse gas emissions and pollution compared to fossil fuels. Large amounts of electricity can be generated by wind turbines and fed into power grids.
India has significant untapped potential for wind energy production, with over 45,000 MW possible. Currently only around 10,000 MW have been installed, mostly by private sector in seven states. The government provides various financial incentives and policies to support growth of the wind energy sector. Small wind turbines below 100 kW capacity are an emerging area being developed by several domestic manufacturers in India.
Energy crisis has been a recurring problem due to increasing demand and limited fossil fuel reserves. The 1973 and 1979 oil crises showed the world's dependence on oil from unstable regions. While renewable sources like solar and wind show promise, they currently only provide a small fraction of energy needs. Nuclear power provides temporary relief but uranium reserves will last less than 15 years if used widely. Coal reserves will last 100-215 years at current consumption rates but is also limited and dirty. No single replacement exists and transition will be difficult, requiring a mix of solutions and reduced consumption through efficiency. Public understanding of the science and anticipated challenges is crucial to navigating this global issue.

Wind energy has great potential in India given its abundant wind resources and growing energy needs. India has set ambitious targets to add at least 2000 MW of wind energy annually and reach 20% renewable energy production by 2020. This will require continued technology advancements to develop larger, more efficient wind turbines suitable for low wind speed sites, as well as improvements to grid infrastructure and integration capabilities. Wind energy offers benefits as a clean, domestic source that can help meet energy demand in a sustainable manner if these challenges are adequately addressed.
India is exploring offshore wind energy as a potential source of renewable energy. Offshore wind has advantages over onshore like better wind resources and reduced land conflicts, but high costs are currently a major challenge. Europe is a world leader in offshore wind power due to supportive government policies and financial incentives that make offshore projects profitable. India can learn from Europe's experience in providing incentives and regulating initial growth to help establish offshore wind energy.

Assessment of off-shore wind turbines for application in Saudi Arabia IJECEIAES
This paper presents models and economic analysis of ten different wind turbines for the region of Yanbu, Saudi Arabia using the hybrid optimization models for energy resources (HOMER) software. This study serves as a guide for decision makers to choose the most suitable wind turbine for Yanbu to meet the target of 58.7GW of renewable energy as part of Saudi Vision 2030. The analysis was carried out based on the turbines initial capital cost, operating cost, net present cost (NPC) and the levelized cost of energy (LCOE). Additionally, the wind turbines were compared based on their electricity production, excess energy and the size of the storage devices required. The results show that Enercon E-126 EP4 wind turbine has the least LCOE (0.0885 $/kWh) and NPC ($23.8), while WES 30 has the highest LCOE (0.142 $/kWh) and NPC ($38.3) for a typical load profile of a village in Yanbu.
Venture capital and private equity funding can provide necessary capital for newer companies or those with less than two years of operating history that may not have access to other sources of funding. Venture capital comes from wealthy investors, investment banks, and other financial institutions and provides financing for startup and small businesses seen as having potential for growth, while also offering technical or managerial expertise. Private equity investors buy shares of private companies and are dominated by large institutional investors like pension funds and private equity firms funded by accredited investors. Both forms of funding carry the risk that the company may not deliver expected returns, but offer potentially higher returns if the company succeeds.

ASIA LNG Demand to Quadruple By 2030
The biggest buyers of liquefied natural gas (LNG) in Northeast Asia—which account for more than half of the world’s LNG market—could see their total subcontracted demand rising fourfold by 2030
Indonesia has an important role to play in addressing climate change as the fifth largest greenhouse gas emitter. However, renewable energy development faces roadblocks in Indonesia, including power purchase prices that are too low for developers to profit from investments in renewables. Additionally, frequent changes to energy policy and a lack of recognition for the environmental benefits of renewable energy have deterred renewable development. In order to increase renewable energy, Indonesia must maintain stable policies, remove regulatory barriers, provide sites where renewables are cost competitive, and phase out subsidies that artificially lower the price of fossil fuel electricity.

Sanjay Harishchandra Indulkar offers regulatory and finance transition advisory services for real estate developers in Maharashtra, including assistance with registering projects and ensuring compliance with RERA requirements. He has been tracking real estate regulations since 2015. His firm can help with the application process for registering projects with MAHA RERA, including conducting due diligence on applications and enclosures as well as analyzing project financials, cash flows, and risk matrices to establish realistic completion dates. Developers are encouraged to contact him if they think his expertise can help contribute to their organizational growth and business needs.
RERA and the Maharashtra RERA rules provide penalties for promoters who do not comply with regulations and compensation for delays in project delivery. However, many projects in Maharashtra are already stuck due to various issues. The regulator faces challenges in providing justice for buyers in stuck projects, as merely fining or jailing developers will not help buyers. Regulations need clarification on mechanisms to help complete stuck projects, such as allowing buyers to take over projects, and on protecting buyer rights regarding project quality and timely delivery.
The Maharashtra RERA has defined co-promoters of real estate projects to include any person or organization entitled to a share of the total revenue or area of a project. Co-promoters, such as land owners in a joint development agreement, will have to maintain 70% of sales proceeds in a separate bank account and will be treated the same as the project promoter for withdrawals. The regulator aims to control diversion of funds by stipulating co-promoters clearly outline their share and register the arrangement on the authority's portal. This brings individuals and groups in joint development agreements under the purview of RERA for greater transparency of project finances.
This document provides answers to frequently asked questions about startups in India and the Startup India initiative. It defines what qualifies as a startup, how startups can obtain benefits under government schemes, how long startup recognition is valid, and what documents are required to register as a startup. It specifies that an entity can register as a startup if it is less than 5 years old and has a turnover less than Rs. 25 crore. It also provides details on the registration process and support available to help new startups get established.
The document discusses initiatives by the Indian government to promote entrepreneurship through the Startup India and Standup India programs. It provides details of various schemes that aim to encourage entrepreneurship among women and disadvantaged communities through easier access to funding, subsidies, and other support. Key aspects include allocating Rs. 10,000 crore for a startup fund, tax exemptions, patent protection, self-certification, incubators, and loans between Rs. 10 lakh to Rs. 1 crore for women and SC/ST entrepreneurs.
The Real Estate (Regulation and Development) Act, 2016 came into force on May 1, 2016 to regulate the real estate sector and protect consumer interests. 69 of 92 sections were notified, establishing Real Estate Regulatory Authorities and Appellate Tribunals and defining key terms. Rules must be formulated by October 31, 2016 and authorities set up within one year to begin operationalizing the Act. This will mark the start of regulating real estate transactions and executions of projects in a timely, efficient and transparent manner.

The Evolution and Impact of OTT Platforms: A Deep Dive into the Future of Ent...ABHILASH DUTTA
This presentation provides a thorough examination of Over-the-Top (OTT) platforms, focusing on their development and substantial influence on the entertainment industry, with a particular emphasis on the Indian market.We begin with an introduction to OTT platforms, defining them as streaming services that deliver content directly over the internet, bypassing traditional broadcast channels. These platforms offer a variety of content, including movies, TV shows, and original productions, allowing users to access content on-demand across multiple devices.The historical context covers the early days of streaming, starting with Netflix's inception in 1997 as a DVD rental service and its transition to streaming in 2007. The presentation also highlights India's television journey, from the launch of Doordarshan in 1959 to the introduction of Direct-to-Home (DTH) satellite television in 2000, which expanded viewing choices and set the stage for the rise of OTT platforms like Big Flix, Ditto TV, Sony LIV, Hotstar, and Netflix. The business models of OTT platforms are explored in detail. Subscription Video on Demand (SVOD) models, exemplified by Netflix and Amazon Prime Video, offer unlimited content access for a monthly fee. Transactional Video on Demand (TVOD) models, like iTunes and Sky Box Office, allow users to pay for individual pieces of content. Advertising-Based Video on Demand (AVOD) models, such as YouTube and Facebook Watch, provide free content supported by advertisements. Hybrid models combine elements of SVOD and AVOD, offering flexibility to cater to diverse audience preferences.
Content acquisition strategies are also discussed, highlighting the dual approach of purchasing broadcasting rights for existing films and TV shows and investing in original content production. This section underscores the importance of a robust content library in attracting and retaining subscribers.The presentation addresses the challenges faced by OTT platforms, including the unpredictability of content acquisition and audience preferences. It emphasizes the difficulty of balancing content investment with returns in a competitive market, the high costs associated with marketing, and the need for continuous innovation and adaptation to stay relevant.
The impact of OTT platforms on the Bollywood film industry is significant. The competition for viewers has led to a decrease in cinema ticket sales, affecting the revenue of Bollywood films that traditionally rely on theatrical releases. Additionally, OTT platforms now pay less for film rights due to the uncertain success of films in cinemas.
Looking ahead, the future of OTT in India appears promising. The market is expected to grow by 20% annually, reaching a value of ₹1200 billion by the end of the decade. The increasing availability of affordable smartphones and internet access will drive this growth, making OTT platforms a primary source of entertainment for many viewers.

Challenges: Offshore wind business comes with its own set of
challenges and the situation in India may not be very different.
a. the installation cost for offshore projects is much higher as
compared to that of onshore and in India costs may be higher
owing to various factors like absence of adequate turbine
installation and support vessels, lack of sub-structure and
manufacturers and lack of trained manpower
b. the data required for assessment of offshore wind potential and
identification of suitable sites is not fully developed, especially
important data like wind resource map and bathymetric data.
c. Existing ports need to be adequately equipped to ensure
installation and transportation works can take place effectively.
d. the supply chain logistics need to be developed appropriately at
strategic ports
e. credit risk cover concerns due to absence of land, which forms an
integral part of the security package for the onshore wind
projects need to be addressed;
f. The regulatory framework needs to be recalibrated to the extent
required.
Offshore wind projects increasingly attractive compared to land-
based farms:
a. Offshore wind turbines are generally more efficient than their
onshore counterparts because wind speed and direction over
the water are more consistent. Theoretically fewer turbines are
needed to generate the same amount of electricity as onshore
turbines.
b. Offshore wind does not suffer from the “not in my back yard”
(NIMBY) argument from state residents (and subsequent legal
battles), as farms are generally located in federal waters
c. Whereas onshore wind farms require land which can be
otherwise used for agriculture, construction, and recreation,
offshore wind does not interfere with land use.
d. In fact, environmental conservation groups have hailed offshore
wind turbines for their role in revitalizing coastal ecosystems.
