GERMI (Gujarat Energy Research & Management Institute) is implementing Gandhinagar Roof Top PV Project for the state government of Gujarat. Kindly visit us at www.germi.org to learn more about publically available information on the same.
Arun Murali  |  Added idea  "Mass manufacture Solar Thremal devices"  |  1 year ago
All current solar voltaic systems are based on silicon substrates. These silicon substrates are difficult to get and compete with a very large chip manufacturing industry. Chip manufacturer's need only a very tiny portion of it to make a chip and...

Govt should encourage all teh top MNC's and big industries to get into this system which would protect lot of power which can be re distributed to other places.

As long as "we" people and the "Industrial" people follow rules and practices laid out to reduce pollution it is possible to control pollution.But as such there is a threat from the behavior and commitment of Indians towards environment.
Soma Gupta  |  Argues in support of  "No"  |  3 years ago
I don't think this idea will be viable as the energy efficient practices may some times lead to increase in cost. And before implementing the norms the government should find out the technical specifications as well as see whether adopting the...

Ignoring commercial gains in today’s highly competitive business environment and leading the way for a cleaner and greener environment, Tata Power has propagated its energy conservation campaign to the average citizen through a unique and innovative programme under the aegis of ‘Tata Power Energy Club’ to bring about the much-needed awareness of energy conservation.   The ‘Tata Power Energy Club’, comprising schools and schoolchildren to curb energy-wastage through active measures, today reached the critical mass of sensitising one lakh citizens across 4 major cities in India i.e., Mumbai, Pune, Delhi and Ahmedabad and is racing towards its eventual goal of one million citizens as planned, ...

Whenever you save energy, you not only save money, you also reduce the demand for such fossil fuels as coal, oil, and natural gas. Less burning of fossil fuels also means lower emissions of carbon dioxide (CO2), the primary contributor to global warming, and other pollutants. You do not have to do without to achieve these savings. There is now an energy efficient alternative for almost every kind of appliance or light fixture. That means that consumers have a real choice and the power to change their energy use on a revolutionary scale. The average American produces about 40,000 pounds of CO2 emissions per year. Together, we use nearly a million dollars worth of energy every minute, night a...
