Public Private Partnership for Agricultural DevelopmentMD SALMAN ANJUM
The document discusses public-private partnerships (PPPs) in Indian agriculture. It provides examples of how PPPs can be used to build farmer resilience to environmental shocks through insurance, improve access to credit, technology and markets using IT and biotechnology, and invest in smarter value chains through the food processing industry. It specifically highlights the Monsanto India PPP program that has reached over 900,000 farmers across six states. It also discusses the Maharashtra Public-Private Partnership for Integrated Agricultural Development (PPPIAD) project as a successful PPP model showing potential for other states.
Public-private partnerships (PPPs) involve contractual agreements between public and private sector entities to share skills, assets, risks, and rewards in delivering a public service or facility. PPPs are needed in Indian agriculture to boost research, use of quality seeds and farm mechanization, expand irrigation, and ensure food security. They provide benefits like more efficient delivery of projects and innovation but also face challenges like risky investments for private partners and lack of legal frameworks. Examples of agricultural PPPs in India include projects improving maize farming, e-Choupal knowledge platforms, and a Maharashtra program linking farmers' groups with agribusinesses.

Filling the Skill Gap in India's Clean Energy MarketNeeraj Kuldeep
1) India aims to greatly increase its solar and wind energy capacity to meet growing energy demands, ensure energy security, and address climate change, but needs significant investment and a strong policy framework to do so.
2) The government has introduced initiatives both internationally, such as the International Solar Alliance, and domestically through programs like Make in India to support clean energy goals, but a key gap is the lack of a workforce with necessary skills.
3) Analysis shows that achieving solar and wind targets could create over 1 million jobs, but building this skilled workforce will be crucial to realizing renewable energy targets.
This project aims to expand energy efficiency financing programs for small grocery stores in Appalachia. It is a collaboration between the Natural Capital Investment Fund and the Mountain Association for Community Economic Development. In the short term, it aims to provide $4.4 million in loans for energy efficiency projects, saving $900,000 in energy costs and creating 47 jobs. Long term goals include making grocery stores more resilient to rising energy costs, demonstrating that energy efficiency projects can be successfully financed, and increasing support for efficiency programs. Expanding these efforts requires additional funding for marketing, energy audits, and loans, as well as hiring staff and developing partnerships to increase outreach to grocery stores over the next two years.

The document summarizes an interview discussing ways to improve the yieldco model of financing renewable energy projects. It finds that yieldcos should focus on improving operating cost structure, driving down development and construction costs through synergies with developers, and enhancing asset lifetimes. A yieldco's value comes from dividend value, new asset purchases, reinvestment, operational efficiencies, and cost reductions shared with developers. Better financial modeling of these factors can provide a more compelling value proposition for yieldcos.

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
Ongoing concerns about climate change have made renewable energy sources an important
component of the world energy consumption portfolio. Renewable energy technologies could
reduce CO2 emissions by replacing fossil fuels in the power generation industry and the
transportation sector. Because of some negative and irreversible externalities in conventional
energy production, it is necessary to develop and promote renewable energy supply
technologies and demand for renewable energy. Power generation using renewable energy
sources should be increased in order to decrease the unit cost of generation. Energy
consumption depends on several factors including economic progress, population, energy
prices, weather, and technology.
The motive was to get the information about the distribution and the benchmarking done for
six companies (which are CYGNI ENERGY PVT. LTD. VS AMARAJA
BATTERIES,VRINDA CONSULTANTS VS ABC CONSULTANTS & SEASIA VS
ALSTOM ) . The areas especially the financial areas where these companies are lacking &
achieving heights were identified. The analysis done on the Evolving Distributorship is done
with the help of questionnaire made by me in order to analyze so the information regarding
specific areas of Distributorship is attained.
After getting the questionnaire filled by the respondents , some findings are made in order to
get; what are the actual areas where respondents interests lies the most. On the basis of this
Conclusion is made. Finally it is concluded that the areas where customers will be highly
satisfied with the products of Cygni & the percentage( % )of customers having a good choices
for taking a brand. The information regarding choosing the best distribution channel is gathered
and analyzed & it founded that out of different channels such as MLM, Tele shopping,
Dealers/Distributors, Retail channels & Referencing. People are more concerned with Dealers
which is 58% of the respondents. Retail Chains are the second most used channel for
Distributing the goods & services i.e; 19% of the total respondents.
The Information is collected from various websites on the internet and after reading and going
through many books that are mentioned in the Bibliography Section. At last a sample of
questionnaire is attached that is used for Distributorship Analysis for the Project Report.

environment it has become significantly important for any company to analyze its performance of
different marketing strategies in order to survive in the volatile market environment as well as to manage
companies’ operations efficiently and effectively for achieving its objectives. This report is tailored to
focus on the marketing activities of plans of diverse companies across sectors, that is performing to
retain market share and uphold the growth.
INTRODUCTION TO THE RENEWABLE INDUSTRY
The World Energy Forum has predicted that fossil-based oil, coal and gas reserves will be
exhausted in less than another 10 decades. Fossil fuels account for over 79% of the primary
energy consumed in the world, and 57.7% of that amount is used in the transport sector andare
diminishing rapidly. The exhaustion of natural resources and the accelerated demand of
conventional energy have forced planners and policy makers to look for alternate sources.
Renewable energy is energy derived from resources that are regenerative, and do not deplete
over time. Renewable energy offers our planet a chance to reduce carbon emissions, clean the
air, and put our civilization on a more sustainable footing. It also offers countries around the
world the chance to improve their energy security and spur economic development. Modern
biomass encompasses a range of products derived from photosynthesis and is essentially
chemical solar energy storage. Renewable energy supplies 18% of the world’s final energy
consumption.
Renewable energy technologies produce marketable energy by converting natural
phenomena/resources into useful energies. The usage of renewable energy resources is a
promising prospect for the future as an alternative to conventional energy. Therefore, an
attempt has been madethrough this paper to review the availability of renewable energyoptions
in India, and provides information about the current status of renewable, future potentials of
their uses, major achievements, and current government policies, delivery and outreach in
Indian context. It paints a remarkable overallpicture ofrenewable energyresources and position
of India on global map in utilizing these resources.
Renewable energy in India
India’s population of more than 1028 million is growing at an annual rate of 1.58%. As fossil
fuel energy becomes scarcer, India will face energy shortages significantly due to increase in
energy prices and energy insecurity with in the next few decades. Increased use of fossil fuels
also causes environmental problems both locally and globally. The economy of India,
measured inUSD exchange-rate terms, is the twelfth largest inthe world, witha GDP ofaround
$1 trillion (2008). GDP growth rate of 9.0% for the fiscal year 2007–2008 which makes it the
second fastest big emerging economy, after China, in the world. There is a very high demand
for energy, which is currently satisfied mainly by coal, foreign oil and petroleum, whichapart
9. 9
from being a non-renewable, and therefore non-permanent solution to the energy crisis, it is
also detrimental to the environment. Thus, it is imperative that India obtains energy security
without affecting the booming economy, which would mean that the country must switch from
the nonrenewable energy (crude oil and coal) to renewable energy. For these reasons the
development and use of RES & Technologies are becoming vital for sustainable economic
development of India. Expert consultation at the Asia Energy Vision 2020, organized under the
World Energy Council agreed on energy demand projection in India up to 2020.
India is determined to becoming one of the world’s leading clean energy producers. The
Government of India has already made several provisions, and established many agencies that
will help it to achieve its goal. The country has an estimated renewable energy potential of
around 85,000 MW from commercially exploitable sources, i.e., wind, 45,000 MW; small
hydro, 15,000 MW and biomass/bioenergy, 25,000 MW. In addition, India has the potentialto
generate 35 MW per square kilometer using solar photovoltaic and solar thermal energy. By
March 2007, renewable electricity, excluding hydro above 25 MW installed capacity, has
contributed 10,243 MW representing 7.7% oftotalelectricity installed capacity. There has been
phenomenal progress in wind power and, with an installed capacity of over 8757 MW, India
occupies the fifth position globally. The Indian Government has been at work, making a
comprehensive policy for compulsory use of renewable energy resources through biomass,
hydropower, wind, solar and municipal waste in the country, particularly for commercial
establishments, as well as Government establishments.
The major contribution to renewable energy investment comes from private sector
participation. This is due to the support from the government, which leverages the private
investment. The financial allocation for renewable energy sources vis-a` -vis total allocation,
however, remains in the range of 0.1% during Tenth Plan period. This is expected to increase
during the Eleventh Plan. The MinistryofNew and Renewable Energy has identified renewable
energy R&D as an important factor for developing this sector. R&D subsidy is 100% of a
project’s cost ingovernment R&D institutions, and 50% inthe private sector. The R&D subsidy
for the private sector may be enhanced for initial stages of technologies that have longer time-
horizons. Renewable sources already contribute to about 5% of the total power generating
capacity in the country. During the last two decades, several renewable energy technologies
have been deployed in rural and urban areas.
Biomass
Hydropower
Wind energy
Solar energy
Geothermal energy
Other renewable energy technologies
Solar thermal technologies, particularly solar water heating system, solar cookers and solar
generation systems are the most commercialized technologies among renewable energy
technologies in India. Policies are set to provide further impetus to dissemination of solar
technologies.

Biogas represents an alternative source ofenergy, derived mainly fromorganic wastes. In India,
the use of biogas derived from animal waste, primarily cow dung, has been promoted for over
three decades now. Biogas is a clean fuel produced through anaerobic digestion of a varietyof
organic wastes: animal, agricultural, domestic, and industrial. Biogas is the only technology
that has put cooking in rural areas on technological ladder and has made cookinga pleasure with
associated social and environmental benefits including zero indoor pollution. India’s National
Project on Biogas development (NPBD) has been one of the well organized and systematic
program to provide logistic and institutional support for that has been under implementation
since early 1980s. India Biogas program is one of the most successful program if we compare
with other such program implemented in RuralIndia.
Biofuel program in the country is at nascent stage. The policy measures currently in place
include an excise tax reduction for E-5, the obligation to blend all petrol with 5% ethanol in
certain regions since January 2003 and government regulation of the ethanol selling price on
the basis of ethanol production costs. Subsequently the percentage of ethanol mixture in petrol
is planned to be increase to 10%. A new biofuel policy for the country is under construction.
Hydrogen energy is also at early stage ofdevelopment. Ministryof New and Renewable Energy
also funded research projects on different aspects of hydrogen energy technologydevelopment.
India is the member of the International Partnership on Hydrogen economy (IPHE) set up in
Washington, DC in November 2003. Future challenges to India includes lowering cost of
hydrogen substantially and improve production rates from different methods, development of
compact and inexpensive storage capacity, establishment of hydrogen network and
development of hydrogen fuelled IC engine and efficiency improvement of different type of
fuel cell systems.
Environmental sustainability: renewable energy and climate change
To sustain economic growth and raise living standards, energy shortages could be met by
increasing supplies. But there are two other important considerations: environmental
sustainability and social development. The current pattern of economic growth has caused
serious environmental damage – polluting the air, creating large quantities of waste, degrading
biological systems and accelerating climate change – with many of these effects coming from
the energysector. At the same time, it is also vitalto consider the impact on socialdevelopment.
The lack of access to energy services aggravates many social concerns, including poverty, ill
health, unemployment and inequity.
In modern economic sectors one of the main sources of energy is oil. Although the world’s
largest oil consumer is still the United States, four Asian countries are not far behind; China
comes second, Japan third, India fourth and the Republic of Korea sixth.
Natural gas is also increasingly important: its fuel efficiency makes it an attractive choice for
new power generating plants and for the industrial sector. Other environmental concerns
include water pollution and the disposal ofwaste, particularly nuclear waste. In the rural areas
one worry is the overexploitation of environmentally sensitive areas. Many people inruralareas
rely on biomass fuels for cooking, heating and lighting. Overuse of these can lead to
degradation of watersheds, and loss of biodiversity and habitats.

Climatic changes
Climatic changes, as a result of global warming caused by greenhouse gases, mainly carbon
dioxide (CO2) produced during the burning of fossil fuels, have been causing significant
changes in the ecosystems and leading to nearly 150,000 additional deaths every year [2]. This
rise is mainly caused by the unsustainable use of fossil fuels and the changes in the use of the
land.
Clean development mechanism
The clean development mechanism (CDM) of the Kyoto Protocol has been set up to assist
developing countries in achieving sustainable development by promoting greenhouse gas
emission reduction projects, that generate emission credits (certified emissions reductions,
CERs) for industrialized countries [19]. A number of countries in the region are taking
advantage ofthe CDM. This is a provision ofthe Kyoto Protocolwhich was devised originally
as a bilateral mechanism through which entities in industrialized countries could gain certified
emission reductions (CERs) by investing in clean technologies in developing countries. For the
recipient developing countries, this can boost returns on projects by up to 12% for wind, hydro
and geothermal projects and by 15–17% for biomass and municipal waste projects (UNEP).
Indian enterprises have alreadycommitted investment to generate more than 379 million CERs.
Worldwide investments have been made that will generate 1.9 billion CERs by 2012.
Future of renewable energy in India
India, faced with twin challenges on energy and environmental front, has no option but to work
towards increasing the role of renewable in the future energy systems. Renewable energy
technologies vary widely in their technological maturity and commercial status. In India,
renewable energy is at the take-off stage and businesses, industry, government and customers
have a large number of issues to address before these technologies could make a real
penetration. India with large renewable energy resources (solar PV, wind, solar heating, small
hydro and biomass) is to set to have large-scale development and deployment of renewable
energy projects [20]. The aim of meeting 10% of the country power supply through renewable
by 2012 and also ambitious plans for the distribution of biogas plants, solar PV applications
and solar city appears to be within reach. Moreover, introduction oftradable renewable energy
certificates (REC) could overcome the existing gap that is hindering the application of quota
for renewables and thereby creates a vibrant market.
India would also have to look for international cooperation in renewable energy through well
defined R&D projects with proper division of labour and responsibilities for specific tasks with
equitable financial burden and credit sharing arrangements. Renewable energy development is
considered inIndia to be ofgreat importance fromthe point ofview of long termenergy supply
security, environmental benefits and climate change mitigation. The Integrated Energy Policy
report has recognized the need to maximally develop domestic supply options as well as the
need to diversify energy sources. The Committee has placed emphasis on higher use of
renewables in all forms of services. It is expected that the contribution from renewables in
power generation alone can be of the extent of 60,000 MW in the year 2031–2032. By 2031–
2032 renewables will be the key driver in social inclusion of the poor in the development
process. A modest assessment of investments in the renewable energy sector will be about Rs.
300,000 crores over the next 25 years. MNRE has included in its mission: energy security;
12. 12
increase in the share of clean power; energy availability and access; energy affordability; and
energy equity.
A number of government and private organizations such as MNRE, Centre for Wind Energy
Technology, Universities, IITs, NITs, Indian Oil Corporation Ltd. (IOCL) and The Energy
Resource Institute (TERI) are involved in R&D of renewable energy sources.
Current energy policies
The ultimate objective of the renewable energy policy framework is to significantly increase
the share of renewable energy source in India’s energy mix [20]. These energy policies are set
by government.
National Electricity Policy, 2005
The NationalElectricityPolicy aims at achieving the following objectives; access to electricity,
availability of power demand (to be fully met by 2012), energy and peaking shortages to be
overcome and spinning reserve to be available, supplyof reliable and qualitypower ofspecified
standards in an efficient manner and at reasonable rates, per capita availability of electricity to
be increased to over 1000 units by 2012, financial turn around and commercial viability of
electricity sector and protection of consumers’ interests.
13. 13
The Electricity Act 2003
The Electricity Act contains the following provisions pertaining to non-conventional energy
sources. Under Sections 3(1) and 3(2), it has been stated that the Central Government shall,
from time to time, prepare and publish the National Electricity Policy and Tariff Policy, in
consultation with the state governments and authority for development of the power system
based on optimal utilization of resources such as coal, natural gas, nuclear substances or
material, hydro and renewable sources ofenergy. Section 4 states that the Central Government
shall, after consultation with the state governments, prepare and notify a national policy,
permitting stand-alone systems for rural areas. Section 61, 61(h) and 61(i) state that the
appropriate commission shall, subject to the provision of this Act, specify the terms and
conditions for the determination of tariff, and in doing so, shall be guided by the following,
namely, the promotion ofcogeneration and generation ofelectricity fromrenewable sources of
energy; and the National Electricity Policy and Tariff Policy. Section 86(1) and 86(1)(e) state
that the state commissions shall discharge the following functions, namely, promote
cogeneration and generation of electricity from renewable sources of energy by providing,
suitable measures for connectivity with the grid and sale of electricity to any person, and also
specify, for purchase of electricity from such sources, a percentage ofthe total consumption of
electricity in the area of a distribution license.
Tariff Policy, 2006
The Tariff Policy announced in January 2006 has the following provisions:
1. Pursuant to provisions of section 86 (1) (e) of the Act, the Appropriate Commission shall
fix a minimum percentage for purchase of energy from such sources taking into account
availability of such resources in the region and its impact on retail tariffs.
2. It will take some time before non-conventional technologies can compete with conventional
sources in terms of cost of electricity. Therefore, procurement by distribution companies shall
be done at preferential tariffs determined by the Appropriate Commission.
3. Such procurement by Distribution Licensees for future requirements shall be done, as faras
possible, through competitive bidding process under Section 63 of the Act within suppliers
offering energy from same type of nonconventional sources.
4. The Central Commission should lay down guidelines within three months for pricing non-
firm power, especially from nonconventional sources, to be followed in cases where such
procurement is not through competitive bidding.
National Rural Electrification Policies, 2006
1. Goals include provision of access to electricity to all households by the year 2009, quality
and reliable power supply at reasonable rates, and minimum lifeline consumption of 1
unit/household/day as a merit good by year 2012.
2. For villages/habitations where grid connectivity would not be feasible or not cost effective,
off-grid solutions based on standalone systems may be taken up for supply ofelectricity.
14. 14
3. State government should, within 6 months, prepare and notify a rural electrificationplan,
which should map and detail the electrification delivery mechanism.
4. The GramPanchayat shall certify and confirm the electrified status ofthe village as on 31st
March each year.
Integrated Energy Policy Report (Planning Commission) 2006
Suggest a path to meet energy needs of the country in an integrated manner up to 2031–2032.
It recommended special focus on renewable energy development.
Initiatives and steps for delivery and outreach
1. District Advisory Committees (DACs)
These Committees have led to the creation of an effective renewable energy promotion
network at the grass-root level that will also help in integration of renewable energy schemes
with those of other development departments. To date, 550 DACs have been setup in 550
districts of the country.
2. Akshay Urja Shops (renewable energy shops)
Akshay Urja Shops were launched to cover all districts of the country to ensure easy
availability of such systems/devices.It is expected that the common man will embrace
renewable energy technologies in a big way for augmenting energy needs of cooking,
lighting and motive power from these shops.
3. Energyparks
With a view to integrating the activities of State and District Levels Energy Parks was set
up at the national level. 7.4. Rajiv Gandhi Akshay Urja Diwas (Rajiv Gandhi Renewable

Conclusions
Energy security, economic growth and environment protection are the national energy policy
drivers of any country of the world. The need to boost the efforts for further development and
promotion of renewable energy sources has been felt world over in light of high prices of crude
oil. A critical part of the solution will lie in promoting renewable energytechnologies as a way
to address concerns about energy security, economic growth inthe face ofrising energy prices,
competitiveness, health costs and environmental degradation. According to NAPCC other
sources of renewable energy would be promoted. Specific action points that have been
mentioned include promoting deployment, innovation and basic research in renewable energy
technologies, resolving the barriers to development and commercial deployment of biomass,
hydropower, solar and wind technologies, promoting straight (direct) biomass combustion and
biomass gasification technologies, promoting the development and manufacture ofsmall wind
electric generators, and enhancing the regulatory/tariff regime in order to main stream
renewable energy sources in the national power system. Accordingly, increased focus is being
laid on the deployment of renewable power that is likely to account for around 5% in the
electricity-mix by 2032. Alternate fuels, essentially bio-fuels, are proposed to be progressively
used for blending with diesel and petrol, mainly for transport applications. Finally, renewable
energy provides enormous benefits and can contribute significantly in the national energy mix
at least economic, environmental and social costs and it is expected that the share of renewable
energy in the total generation capacity will increase in future.

RENEWABLE ENERGY SECTOR AT A GLANCE:
Indian renewable energy sector is the fourth most attractive1
renewable energy market in the
world. India is ranked fourth in wind power, fifth in solar power and fifth in renewable power
installed capacity as of 2018.
Installed renewable power generation capacity has gained pace over the past few years, posting
a CAGR of 17.33 per cent between FY16–20. With the increased support of Government and
improved economics, the sector has become attractive from investors perspective. As India
looks to meet its energy demand on its own, which is expected to reach 15,820 TWh by 2040,
renewable energy is set to play an important role. As a part of its Paris Agreement
commitments, the Government has set an ambitious target of achieving 175 gigawatt (GW) of
renewable energy capacity by 2022. These include 100 GW of solar capacity addition and 60
GW of wind power capacity. Government plans to establish renewable energy capacity of500
GW by 2030.
Market Size
As on April 30, 2020, the installed renewable energy capacity stood at 87.26 GW, of which,
solar and wind comprised 34.81 GW and 37.74 GW, respectively. Biomass and small hydro
power constituted 9.86 GW and 4.68 GW, respectively. ByDecember 2019, 15,100 megawatts
(MW) of wind power projects were issued, of which, projects of 12,162 .50 MW capacity has
already been awarded. Power generation from renewable energy sources in India reached
127.01 billion units (BU) in FY20.
In 2019, India installed 7.3 GW of solar power across the country, establishing its position as
the third-largest solar market in the world.
With a potential capacityof 363 GW and with policies focused on the renewable energy sector,
Northern India is expected to become the hub for renewable energy in India.
17. 17
Government initiatives
Some initiatives by Government of India to boost India’s renewable energy sector are as
follows:
India plans to add 30 GWofrenewable energycapacityalong a desert on its western border
such as Gujarat and Rajasthan.
DelhiGovernment decided to shut downthermalpower plant inRajghat and develop it into
5,000 KW solar park
Rajasthan Government, in Budget 2019-20, exempted solar energy from electricity duty
and focussed on the utilization of solar power in its agriculture and public health sectors.
A new Hydropower policy for 2018-28 was drafted for the growth of hydro projects in the
country.
The Government of India has announced plans to implement a US$ 238 million National
Mission on advanced ultra-supercritical technologies for cleaner coal utilisation.
The Ministry of New and Renewable Energy (MNRE) has decided to provide custom and
excise duty benefits to the solar rooftop sector, which will lower the cost of setting up as
well as generate power, thus boosting growth.
Indian Railways is taking increased efforts throughsustained energyefficient measures and
maximum use of clean fuel to cut down emission level by 33 per cent by2030.
18. 18
Road Ahead
The Government is committed to increased use of clean energy sources and is already
undertaking various large-scale sustainable power projects and promoting green energy
heavily. In addition, renewable energy has the potential to create many employment
opportunities at all levels, especially in rural areas. The Ministry of New and Renewable
Energy (MNRE) has set an ambitious target to set up renewable energy capacities to the
tune of 175 GW by 2022, of which about 100 GW is planned for solar, 60 GW for wind
and other for hydro and bio among other. India’s renewable energy sector is expected to
attract investment worth US$ 80 billion in the next four years. About 5,000 Compressed
Biogas plants will be set up across India by 2023.
It is expected that by 2040, around 49 per cent of the total electricity will be generated by
renewable energy as more efficient batteries will be used to store electricity, which will
further cut the solar energy cost by 66 per cent as compared to the current cost.* Use of
renewables in place of coal will save India Rs 54,000 crore (US$ 8.43 billion) annually5
.
Renewable energywill account for 55 per cent ofthe total installed power capacityby 2030.

REASONS FOR DEVELOPMENT OF THE INDUSTRY:
1. Renewable energy is profitable
As it is taken from freely available resources, renewable energy also enables long term
control over energy prices. Until now, investments in infrastructure and technologies to
produce renewable power weighed upon the cost of renewables, but it will not be the same
in the near future, assuming sufficient efforts are made.
Phasing out fossil fuels and moving to 100% renewables make economic sense – especially
when the true costs of our current energysystem are taken into account. In recent years, the
costs of wind and solar energy have declined substantially.
2. Renewable energy is democratic
As it stands, when one wants electricity, he or she is forced to purchase it from someone
else. When individuals are able to own the equipment that generates their electricity, that
means they wouldn’t have to rely on fluctuating prices or shortages from outside energy
producers.
3. Renewable energy is ... renewable!
Humans have relied so much on the infrastructure they have developed - an infrastructure
entirely reliant upon fossil fuels - that the transition can't be achieved in a few days, but
needs long term action, hence the emergency to radically speed up the transition is now.In
a nutshell, renewable energy is of course better for the environment than fossil fuels and
nuclear energy. That's why Climate Action Network Europe expects the phase out of all
fossil fuel emissions and phase in of 100% renewables by 2050 as an important part of the
Paris COP 21 outcomes.
4. Energy Security
Renewable energyprovides reliable power supplies and fueldiversification, which enhance
energy security and lower risk of fuel spills while reducing the need for imported fuels.
Renewable energy also helps conserve the nation’s natural resources.
5. Price Stability
Renewable energy sources such as wind, solar, hydro and geothermal do not entail fuel
costs or require transportation, and therefore offer greater price stability. In fact, some
electric utilities factor this into their retail electricity prices, exempting customers that buy
renewables from certain charges.

3.1 What is the technique ?
Benchmarking is the process of improving performance by continuously identifying,
understanding, and adapting outstanding practices and processes found inside and outside an
organization (company, public organization, University, College, etc.).
It was pioneered by Xerox Corporation in the 1979s, as part of their response to international
competition inthe photocopier market, and originated fromreverse engineering ofcompetitors'
products. Its scope was then enlarged to include business services and processes. Xerox now
benchmarks nearly 240 performance elements although, when they started benchmarking
several years ago, considerably fewer elements were benchmarked.
Benchmarking of business processes is usually done with top performing companies in other
industrysectors. This is feasible because many business processes are essentiallythe same from
sector to sector.
Benchmarking focuses on the improvement of any given business process by exploiting "best
practices" rather than merely measuring the best performance. Best practices are the cause of
best performance. Companies studying best practices have the greatest opportunityfor gaining
a strategic, operational, and financial advantage.
The systematic discipline of benchmarking is focused on identifying, studying, analysing, and
adapting best practices and implementing the results. To consistently get the most value from
the benchmarking process, senior management may discover the need for a significant culture
change. That change, however, unleashes benchmarking’s full potential to generate large
paybacks and strategic advantage.
The benchmarking process involves comparing one’s firm performance on a set of measurable
parameters of strategic importance against that of firms’ known to have achieved best
performance on those indicators. Development of benchmarks is an iterative and ongoing
process that is likely to involve sharing information with other organizations working with them
towards an agreeable metrology.
Benchmarking should be looked upon as a tool for improvement within a wider scope of
customer focused improvement activities and should be driven by customer and internal
organization needs. Benchmarking is the practice of being humble enough to admit that
someone else is better at something and wise enough to learn how to match and even surpass
them at it.
3.2 Objectives of the Technique
Benchmarking entails gathering information from one organization to beneficially
apply it to another organization.
It is a valuable Business Engineering Technique and its application not only identifies
innovative work processes but also involves discovering the thinking behind
innovation.
39. 39
It is a form of comparative analysis. It is necessary to establish some common ground
as the basis for comparison. Usually one identifies one or more functional areas for
analysis and selects one or more metrics as a quantitative basis for comparison.
These are then compared with agreed benchmarks derived from recognized sources of
best practice. Ultimately, two questions need to be answered:
• What are the alternatives to our present process?
• What are the benefits, costs and risks of the alternatives?
Benchmarking essentially works to the extent that benchmarks can be agreed and
suitable comparators found for which measurements are also available.
3.3 Description of the technique / Methodology / Alternatives
There are five phases for implementation of benchmarking:
A. PLANNING: During this phase the organization determines which process to
benchmark and against what type of organization.
B. ANALYSIS : Following data acquisition, an analysis is performed for the performance
gap between the source organization and the recipient organization. An indication of
best practice is then evident.
C. INTEGRATION : It involves the preparation of the recipient for implementation of
actions.
D. ACTION :This is the phase where the actions are implemented within the recipient
organization.
E. MATURITY This involves continuous monitoring of the process and enables
continuous learning and provides input for continuous improvement within the
recipient organization.
There are, in general, four types of benchmarking:
1. COMPETITIVE BENCHMARKING
Benchmarking is performed versus competitors and data analysis is done as to what causes
the superior performance of the competitor.
It can be, in some respects, easier than other types of benchmarking and in some respects
more difficult. It is easier in the sense that many exogenic variables affecting company
performance may be the same between the source and the recipient organization, since we
are talking about companies of the same sector. On the other hand it is more difficult
because, due to the competitive nature, data recuperation will not be straightforward.
Difficulties of this type may be overcome if the two organizations have for e.g. different
geographical markets.
40. 40
2. INTERNAL BENCHMARKING
This process could be applied in organizations having multiple units (for e.g.
multinationals, companies with sale offices around the country, with multiple factory
locations within the same country).
3. PROCESS BENCHMARKING
Here we look at processes, which may be similar, but indifferent organizations, producing
different products, for e.g. airline industry & hospital industry looking at the process of
catering their ‘clients’.
4. GENERIC BENCHMARKING
We would look here at the technological aspects, the implementation and deployment of
technology. How else other organizations do it? Hence the source organizations may be of
same industry or from another industry.
Processes 1, 3 and 4 are allexternal benchmarking activities. However, locating an external
benchmarking partner and setting up a benchmarking arrangement requires a significant
investment in time and effort. An alternative to external benchmarking might be intra-
company, or internal benchmarking which is less costly in terms of time and money. Two
additional benefits may result from internal benchmarking:
(a) the improvement program willreceive wide recognition within the company and other
divisions may benefit and
(b) the team performing benchmarking will be better prepared for pursuing external
benchmarking partners. If there is a high degree of uniformity within the company or the
process in question is already a company wide practice, external benchmarking may be
pursued to identify additional improvements.
3.4 Expected results / benefits / pitfalls
Benchmarking offers the following benefits to companies and organizations:
• Highlights areas of practice and performance requiring attention and improvement
• Identifies strengths and weaknesses to other respondents
• Establishes company’s true position versus the rest, making thus easier for the company
to raise the organizational energy for change and develop plans for action
• Helps measure current company performance
• Prevents reinventing the wheel (Why invest the time and costs when someone else may
have done it already -and often better, cheaper, and faster?)
• Accelerates change and restructuring by: o using tested and proven practices, convincing
sceptics who can see that it works, and overcoming inertia and complacency and creating a
sense of urgency when gaps are revealed.
41. 41
• Leads to "outside the box" ideas by looking for ways to improve outside of the industry
• Forces organizations to examine present processes, which often leads to improvement in
and of itself
• Makes implementation more likely because of involvement of process owners.
• Enables the identification of other companies and/or organizations with processes
resulting in superior performance, with a view to their adoption.
3.5 BENCHMARKING OF DIVERSE COMPANIES
Following are the benchmarking of6 companies belong to completely different industries have
been compared here with their respective competitors that is going to help in identification of
superiority, strategy & many other factors between both of them.

RESEARCH METHODOLOGY
Research methodology is a collective term for the structured process of conducting research. There
are many different methodologies used in various types of research and the term is usually
considered to include research design, data gathering and data analysis. Research methodology
seeks to inform: Why a research study has been undertaken, how the research problem hasbeen
defined, in what way and why the hypothesis has been formulated, what data have been
collected and what particular method has been adopted, why particular technique of analysing
data has been used and a host of similar other questions are usually answered when we talk of
research methodology concerning a research problem or study.
Research methodologies can be quantitative (for example, measuring the number of times
someone does something under certain conditions) or qualitative (for example, asking people
how they feel about a certain situation). Ideally, comprehensive research should try to
incorporate both qualitative and quantitative methodologies but this is not always possible,
usually due to time and financial constraints. Research methodologies are generally used in
academic research to test hypotheses or theories. A good design should ensure the research is
valid, i.e. it clearly tests the hypothesis and not extraneous variables, and that the research is
reliable, i.e. it yields consistent results every time.
Research Design
A research design is the set of methods and procedures used in collecting and analyzing
measures of the variables specified in the problem research. The design of a study defines the
studytype (descriptive, correlational, semi-experimental, experimental, review, meta-analytic)
and sub-type (e.g., descriptive-longitudinal case study), research
problem, hypotheses, independent and dependent variables, experimental design, and, if
applicable, data collection methods and a statistical analysis plan.[1]
A research design is a
framework that has been created to find answers to research questions.
DATA SOURCES:-
Depending on the source, it can classify as primary data or secondary data. Let us take a look at
them both.
Primary Data
These are the data that are collected for the first time by an investigator for a specific purpose.
Primary data are ‘pure’ in the sense that no statistical operations have been performed on them and
they are original. An example of primary data is the Census of India.
48. 48
Secondary Data
They are the data that are sourced from someplace that has originally collected it. This means
that this kind of data has already been collected by some researchers or investigators in the past
and is available either in published or unpublished form. This information is impure as statistical
operations may have been performed on them already. An example is an information available on
the Government of India, the Department of Finance’s website or in other repositories, books,
journals, etc.
Problem Statement
Productivity is critical to the success of any business firm that wants to gain and maintain
market share. The organization is in need of an appropriate measure of customer satisfaction
that will lead to productivity from its customers. With the help of distribution channel the
marketer reach the intended final user of their product.
The present study tried to analyze the evolving distributorship & affiliate networks and go to
market plans of diverse companies across sectors of Cygni.
Research objective
To identify the factors affecting the purchase decision towards CYGNI
To analyze the marketing activities of Cygni Energy Pvt. Limited.
To know the best channel of Distribution
To attain knowledge in the Distribution sector.
To study GTM of diverse companies.
Research Design
“The research design is the method and process for the conducting particular study, broadly
speaking; it can be grouped inthe three main categories – Exploratory, Descriptive and Causal.

Descriptive
Descriptive study is used when researcher interested in knowing the features of
certain group like age, sex, educational level, operation etc.”
This research conducted is a descriptive research. This is descriptive in nature
because the study is focused on fact finding investigation in a structured form and is
based on primary data. Primary data has been used in the form ofa questionnaire in
order to collect data.
2. Sampling:
Sample size of this survey was 100 respondents.
3. Data collection:
Sources of Data:
This research study is based on primary data structured questionnaire has been used.

The non probability convenience sampling method was use to collect the responses.
Survey Tools
A Structured questionnaire was used as tool of data collection.
4. Tools of analysis:
The data tabulated in Ms-excel and SPSS for making analysis easier. In this research
SPSS software package version 21.0 was used for analyzing the data collected for the
study.
5. Target Market Analysis:
I need to observe the market to know about information, for this reason we have survey
some distributers, employees & professionals and different companies. From there I have
collected the following information. I found that our targeted people are based on the
category which as follows:
1. Professional distributors in our country
2. Best distribution channel
51. 51
DATA ANALYSIS & INTERPRETATION
After identifying a research topic, doing a literature background research, establishing
philosophical assumptions and focus problem, deciding on an appropriate research paradigm
and methodology with specific purpose, designing a research plan and collecting sufficient
data, the next step in the research process is data analysis and interpretation, which precedes
reporting of research. Data analysis is, therefore, a process that involves examining, and
molding collected data for interpretation to discover relevant information, draw or
propose conclusions and support decision-making to solve a research problem. This
involves interpreting data to answer research questions and making research findings be ready
for dissemination. Data analysis also serves as a reference for future data collection and other
research activities. During data analysis :
data collected is transformed into information and knowledge about a research performed
relationships between variables are explored
meanings are identified and information is interpreted.
Like other research methods, data analysis procedures in quantitative research approach are
different from those in qualitative research approach. The general differences of data analysis
procedures between these two approaches are summarized in the Chart (Bala, 2005) and a
Table that follows:
Data analysis and interpretation is the process of assigning meaning to the collected
information and determining the conclusions, significance and implications of the findings. It
52. 52
is an important and exciting step in the process of research. In all research studies, analysis
follows data collection.

CONCLUSION
Ongoing concerns about climate change have made renewable energy sources an important
component of the world energy consumption portfolio. Renewable energy technologies could
reduce CO2 emissions by replacing fossil fuels in the power generation industry and the
transportation sector. Because of some negative and irreversible externalities in conventional
energy production, it is necessary to develop and promote renewable energy supply
technologies and demand for renewable energy. Power generation using renewable energy
sources should be increased in order to decrease the unit cost of generation. Energy
consumption depends on several factors including economic progress, population, energy
prices, weather, and technology.
From the study it can be concluded that Cygni EnergyPvt. Ltd provides require quantityof the
product of renewable energies , and required products are always available with CygniEnergy
Pvt. Ltd. It is focusing on how their products can generate demand in the area and collecting
