India has ambitious goals to increase power generation and reduce transmission losses by 2012. However, the country faces significant challenges in meeting these targets, including issues with project execution, fuel security, equipment capacity, and infrastructure constraints. To help address these problems, experts recommend improving project management, stakeholder communication, procurement planning, schedule integration, and developing skilled human resources.
Electricity generation in South Africa is changing, but whether the electricity grid will be able to adapt to these changes is uncertain. This paper presents an alternative frame for the current electricity challenges by focusing on the electricity grid. Using the International Futures forecasting model, the African Futures Project has built three scenarios to 2050 to inform policymakers of the long-term implications of grid decisions. With coordinated planning, improved operational strategies and coherent policies, renewable energy can contribute significantly to the energy mix by 2050, help increase economic growth and benefit all South Africans. These interventions, however, will only be successful if there is a clear plan for the structure of the electricity sector.

Energy demand forecasting of remote areas using linear regression and inverse...IJECEIAES
Efficient energy demand forecasting is pivotal for addressing energy challenges in remote areas of Bangladesh, where reliable access to energy resources remains a concern. This study proposes an innovative approach that combines linear regression analysis (LRA) and inverse matrix calculation (IMC) to forecast energy demand accurately in these underserved regions. By leveraging historical energy consumption data and pertinent predictors, such as meteorological conditions, population dynamics, economic indicators, and seasonal patterns, the model provides reliable forecasts. The application of the proposed methodology is demonstrated through a case study focused on remote regions of Bangladesh. The results showcase the approach's effectiveness in capturing the intricate dynamics of energy demand and its potential to inform sustainable energy management strategies in these remote areas. This research contributes to the advancement of energy planning and resource allocation in regions facing energy scarcity, fostering a path towards improved energy efficiency and development. These techniques can be applied to estimate short-term electricity demand for any rural or isolated region worldwide.

The article talks about energy transition from polluting fossil-based sources to green form of energy primarily based on hydro, wind, solar, etc. for sustainable development with net zero carbon emissions.
It is on gradual transition of sources of energy for the generation of electricity from hitherto mainly fossil-based fuels to renewable ones for sustainability as well as to net zero carbon emission.
Made this with a couple of my friends in 2015. It was to be submitted by Prakruti Kodali (ISB '16) for the Matrix Million Dollar B-Plan Elevator Pitch.
1. The Long Road Ahead Solutions for Power Sector Problems in India
2. The Situation India has the fifth largest power generation capacity in the world, generating some 4% of all power. The per capita consumption is about 704kWh, which is fairly low. Transmission and Distribution losses of electricity in India stands at almost 33%- a shocking figure much higher than global benchmarks. The current transmission capacity is only a measly 13 percent of the total installed generation capacity and stands at about 20,750 MW.
3. The Goals By the year 2012, the power sector is poised to handle a 1000 kWh per capita consumption, as outlined by the 11th Plan. This means a need-based capacity addition of about 10,000 MW by such time. The domination of Centre and State Utilities in the Power Sector is being sidelined by privatization of various capacities through outright privatization or franchisee routes. The Ministry of Power plans to establish an integrated National Power Grid by 2012 that will have a generation capacity of 200,000 MW and an inter-region power transfer capacity of 37,700 MW.
4. Target Areas and Past Measures There is a need for improvement in metering, billing and collection efficiency. Greater regard for Private Ventures in the field of Power Generation, Transmission and Distribution, by way of liberalizing related government policies. The unbundling of SEBs and the Electricity Act, 2003 have been pivotal turning points. Accelerated and Power Development Reforms Program to help distribution and granting permission for trading of power.
5. Challenges faced There are several challenges faced by new, private entrants in the power industry. Some of them are project execution- problems arising due to unpreparedness for the projects, shortage of equipment especially by BHEL, delay in financial closure. Geological surprises, delay in clearance from ministry of environment and forestry and natural calamities are causes for hampering hydroelectric power. fuel security power equipment capacities infrastructure constraints- for instance, coal being a mainstay of the energy production in the country requires increased coal transportation by the Railways- where we face capacity shortage.
7. Suggestions There is a need for sound project management principles in a well-structured framework. Stakeholder Identification and Communication Planning in the project’s early stage. This has a major impact on project schedule and budget. A detailed procurement level planning primarily addressing fuel availability and equipment shortage. Schedule integration- The preparation of a master schedule interlinking various planned projects to avoid gaps and mismatches. Enhanced manpower training, higher salaries and addressing changing employee aspirations to attract well-trained and skilled human resources.
