4. About the Course
• As climate change continues to affect our planet and fossil
fuels become less profitable, renewable energy has emerged
as the obvious answer to ecological sustainability. Despite its
importance, solar power generation technologies are new to
us.
• This Course is designed with the objective of developing the
skills of the students in tapping various sources of Renewable
Energy including solar, wind etc.
Dept of Mechanical Engineering 16MEE43 - SOLAR AND WIND ENERGY 4

8. INTRODUCTION
• Energy is one of the major inputs for the economic
development of any country .
• In developing countries, the energy sector
assumes a critical importance in view of the ever-
increasing energy needs requiring huge
investments to meet them .
Dept of Mechanical Engineering 16MEE43 - SOLAR AND WIND ENERGY 8
9. CLASSIFICATION
• Primary and Secondary energy.
• Commercial and Non commercial énergies.
• Renewable and Non-Renewable energy.

11. COMMERCIAL AND NON COMMERCIAL ENERGY
• COMMERCIAL ENERGY :
– Energy source that are available in market for definite
prices are known as Commercial energy.
– They forms the basis of industrial, agricultural, transport
and commercial development in the modern world .
– Eg : Electricity, lignite, coal, oil, natural gas
Dept of Mechanical Engineering 16MEE43 - SOLAR AND WIND ENERGY 11
12. • NON COMMERCIAL ENERGY:
– The energy sources that are not available in the commercial
market for a price are classified as non-commercial energy.
– Eg: Firewood, agro waste in rural areas; solar energy for
water heating, electricity generation, for drying grain, fish
and fruits; animal power for transport, threshing, lifting
water for irrigation, crushing sugarcane.

14. GLOBAL ENERGY RESERVES
Coal :
– Global coal reserve was estimated to be 1.1 trillion tonnes of
proven coal reserves worldwide.
– The USA had the largest share of the global reserve (25.4%)
followed by Russia (15.9%), China (11.6%) ,India (8.6%).
Oil :
– British oil company (BP) estimated that the world had 1.73
trillion barrels of oil reserves as of 2018, which would be
sufficient to meet 50 years of global production at 2018 levels.
– Saudi Arabia had the largest share of the reserve with almost
23%.
Gas :
– As of January 1, 2019, there were an estimated 7,177 trillion
cubic feet (Tcf) of total world proved reserves of gross natural
gas.
– The Russian Federation had the largest share of the reserve with
almost 27%.

17. INDIAN ENERGY SCENARIO
• Coal dominates the energy mix in India, contributing to 55% of the
total primary energy production .
• Coal in India has been mined since 1774 and is now the second
fastest mined in the world, producing 716 million metric tons (789
million short tons) in 2018
• The estimated reserves of crude oil in India as on 31.03.2018 stood
at 594.49million tonnes (MT) against 604.10 million tonnes on
31.03.2017
• Oil accounts for about 36 % of India's total energy consumption
• The estimated reserves of Natural Gas in India as on 31.03.2018
stood at 1339.57Billion Cubic Meters (BCM) as against 1289.70 BCM
as on 31.03.2017
• Natural gas accounts for about 8.9 per cent of energy consumption in
the country .
• Nuclear Power contributes to about 2.4 per cent of electricity
generated in India.

20. ENERGY NEEDS OF GROWING ECONOMY
• Economic growth is desirable for developing countries, and
energy is essential for economic growth.
• For example, under present conditions, 6% increase in India's
Gross Domestic Product (GDP) would impose an increased
demand of 9 % on its energy sector.
• The ratio of energy demand to GDP is a useful indicator
• A high ratio reflects energy dependence and a strong influence
of energy on GDP growth.
• Energy intensity is energy consumption per unit of GDP. Energy
intensity indicates the development stage of the country.
• India’s energy intensity is 3.7 times of Japan, 1.55 times of
USA, 1.47 times of Asia and 1.5 times of World average.

22. • The usage of energy resources in industry leads to
environmental damages by polluting the atmosphere.
• Few of examples of air pollution are sulphur dioxide (SO2),
nitrous oxide (NOX) and carbon monoxide (CO) emissions
from boilers and furnaces
• Chloro-fluro carbons (CFC) emissions from refrigerants use.
• In chemical and fertilizers industries, toxic gases are
released.
• Cement plants and power plants spew out particulate
matter.
Dept of Mechanical Engineering 16MEE43 - SOLAR AND WIND ENERGY 22
23. Various Pollutant
• Sulphur dioxide
• Nitrogen oxides
• Carbon monoxide (CO)
• Ground-level ozone (O3)
• Hydrocarbons
• Benzene
• Heavy Metals and Lead

25. ENERGY SECURITY
• The basic aim of energy security for a nation is to reduce its
dependency on the imported energy sources for its economic
growth.
• India will continue to experience an energy supply shortfall
throughout the forecast period. This gap has widened since
1985, when the country became a net importer of coal.
• Rising oil demand of close to 10 percent per year has led to
sizable oil import bills.
Dept of Mechanical Engineering 16MEE43 - SOLAR AND WIND ENERGY 25
26. • Some of the strategies that can be used to meet future
challenges to their energy security are
Diversification of energy supply sources
Increased capacity of fuel switching
Development of renewable energy sources.
Energy efficiency
Sustainable development
