This presentation discusses non-conventional renewable energy sources that can help provide rural populations with energy access. It notes that over 2 billion people worldwide lack electricity access, including 400 million in rural India. The presentation then outlines various renewable technologies being deployed in India, including family biogas plants, solar home systems, and solar lighting for remote villages. Specific non-conventional energy sources discussed include solar lanterns, solar water heaters, solar cookers, solar collectors, solar panels, and wind power. The objective is to increase awareness of these solutions and their ability to achieve rural energy security.

1. A PRESENTATION ON NON
CONVENTIONAL RESOURCES OF
ENERGY
Created By:-
Nikhil Pakwanne

2. OBJECTIVE
 To create awareness on the advantages of
utilizing Renewable energy sources among
the rural population.
 To propagate on the use of Non
conventional energy applications such as
Solar Lanterns, Solar Water Heaters, Solar
Lighting, Solar Cookers etc.
 To motivate students in propagating the
use of Renewable energy in society
(Especially in Rural region )

3. Energy Poverty-facts & figures
 World: 2 billion without access to electricity
 Rural India: 400 million (57% of
population)
 Target 100% electrification by 2012

4. Government Plans (2007-2012)
Renewable energy source Proposed Targets
Renewable Power Stand Alone 1,000 MW
Systems
(Solar, wind,small hydro biomass
etc)
Family Type Biogas Plants 2 million plants
Remote Village Electrification 10,000 villages

5. What we have done so far for achieving
Rural Energy Security in India
Renewable energy Potential Installed capacity as
source on 31.03.2008
Family Type 12 million 3.9 million
Biogas Plants
Solar PV 1.3 million systems
(domestic & Street lighting and
telecommunication etc)
Remote Village 4500
Electrification villages/hamlets
(Mostly solar
lighting systems)

7. Solar lantern
A lantern is a portable lighting
device used to illuminate broad
areas. Lanterns may also be used
for signaling, to guide your path
somewhere or as general light
sources for camping. In the older
days it would have been used like a
torch. Dim varieties are often used
for decoration.

8. Solar water heater
Solar water heating (SWH) systems
are a mature renewable energy
technology In a "close-coupled" SWH
system the storage tank is horizontally
mounted immediately above the solar
collectors on the roof. No pumping is
required as the hot water naturally
rises into the tank through
thermosiphon flow.

9. Solar cooker
A solar oven or solar cooker
is a device which uses sunlight
as its energy source. Because
they use no fuel and they cost
nothing to run, humanitarian
organizations are promoting their
use worldwide to help slow
deforestation and desertification,
caused by using wood as fuel for
cooking.

10. Solar collectors
Solar collector is a device
used to focus the sun
rays or light at one point.
Photovoltaic cells are
used to convert the sun
energy into electricity.

11. Solar panels
A solar panel (photovoltaic
module or photovoltaic panel) is a
packaged interconnected assembly
of solar cells, also known as
photovoltaic cells. The solar panel is
used as a component in a larger
photovoltaic system to offer
electricity for commercial and
residential applications

12. Wind power
Wind power is the conversion of
wind energy into a useful form of
energy, such as using wind turbines
to make electricity, wind mills for
mechanical power, wind pumps for
pumping water or drainage, or sails
to propel ships. At the end of 2009,
worldwide nameplate capacity of
wind-powered generators was 159.2
gigawatts
