Also energy from Vetti Pechu.

In every village tea shops will become Energy producing centres

(Hayyo-- even our forum dialogues)

i will give them one in the mouth itself. That gadget will convert any vocal resonance into micro joules of energy and that is transmitted through a transmitter and a nearby capacitor will retain the energy and slowly we could get more and more electricity from vetti pechu and loose talks. the good thing about the device is that it even picks up laptop typing vibration range making our forum powerful and power generating.

Delta Electronics to invest $15 mn in Solar Plant in Chennai

The $ 6.6-billion, Taiwan-based Delta Electronics is investing $15 million to set up a manufacturing facility for solar inverters at the SIPCOT Sriperumbudur Hi-Tech SEZ, near Chennai. The plant is expected to be operational by mid-2012. Close to 70 per cent of the output will be exported, while the balance will meet the rising demand for solar inverters in India. Says Dalip Sharma, MD, Delta India: “With global warming becoming a major issue across the world, this is a huge opportunity for us.”

With this plant, the total investment of Delta Electronics in India will exceed $ 60 million. The Chennai plant is the fourth plant of Delta Electronics in India after those at Gurgaon, Pondicherry and Rudrapur in Uttarakhand. These plants produce telecom power systems, uninterrupted power systems and display solutions.


Mr. Sharma says: “The rapid growth of the Indian economy means it will need solar solutions to raise power capacity.” Delta which has been in India for close to a decade is looking to ramp its operations here. During the last fiscal, the Indian operations had revenues of $ 154 million, which is expected to touch $ 200 million this year.
The solar inverter is the heart of the photovoltaic (PV) system. The grid-tied inverter will not operate when they do not detect the presence of the grid. It contains special circuitry to match the voltage and frequency of the grid. These inverters shut down automatically upon loss of utility supply, for safety reasons. These will come in handy as India is looking to have a 20,000 mw solar power capacity under the Jawaharlal Nehru National Solar Mission.

Also Delta will be producing Grid-tied solar inverters for domestic market and for exports to Europe, South-East Asia and Australian markets. It is the first multinational to set-up a manufacturing plant in India for solar inverters. Though there are many companies that are providing inverter solutions in the market, most of them are suitable for European grid conditions. Delta is the only international manufacturer providing “AP-Asia Pacific” models to consumers, the inverters are customized to Asian conditions.

Eyelit and centrotherm have embarked on their first joint venture for Shan Solar, a crystalline-silicon PV panel manufacturing plant in Chennai, India. Turnkey solutions provider, centrotherm, will use Eyelit’s Enterprise Manufacturing Execution suite (MES) for its PV module production, expanding Eyelit’s presence in the Asia-Pacific region.

Eyelit, a manufacturing software provider for visibility, control and coordination of manufacturing operations for the aerospace and defence, discrete electronics, semiconductor and PV industries, provides a flexible and extensible system that leverages modular software components. This modular design enables centrotherm to mix and match system components as they configure Eyelit’s software solution for various joint projects.

The plant is currently able to produce 30MW of solar modules per year which Shan Solar hopes will increase to 100MW after a projected expansion. Eyelit MES, Asset Management, Executive Dashboard and Client Reporting will be used to track, monitor and provide product visibility throughout the manufacturing process.

“We chose Eyelit’s MES software solution because the system is designed with a modular architecture, is highly scalable and stable and has great overall performance. It exactly matches the requirements for this project,” said Volker Buschendorf, head of MES, centrotherm photovoltaics.

I heard Tamilnadu s planning for a 50MW Solar Plant.Any idea is it true or false.

depends on where you heard it. If u heard it in a tasmac wineshop bar over a couple of bears and some half boil eggs, then the news is false

Capital cost for producing solar power is very high when compared to the power produced now thru thermal,hydro,nuclear or even wind .When the TN govt is unable to meet the subsidies and people in TN resist increase in power tariff will it be possible to go for high cost solar power?TN power companies are saddled with huge accumulated losses and are finding difficult to maintain the existing assets leave along setting up new grids which is the constant complain of the wind power generating companies for not providing enough for evacuating power generated by their wind mills.Adding to the woes is the strong resistance to commission Kudankulam nuclear power, which is ready after spending more than Rs14,000 crores, by the local christians and the irony is the state going thru power outages including at Kundankulam where i am presently staying.

Are you working on the Kudankulam nuclear plant?

For Solar TN has opted for PPP model.

TN Govt will pay max Rs. 4 per KWH (They pay similar rates to Thermal also) and Non Conventional Energy Ministry will pay approx Rs. 6 per KWH. As per the Solar Policy proposed,

All Thermal Plants in TN should buy min 10-20% (not yet decided) of their total production by Thermal from Non Conventional (Solar or wind) power manufacturer.

NTPC has already started buying like this. They will pay approx Rs. 14.50 per KWH to Solar / wind Manufacurers for 10 - 20% of their total production and supply to Govt at Rs. approx Rs. 4 per KWH and they will get approx Rs. 6 per KWH from NCE Ministry. Their nett loss of approx Rs. 4.50 per KWH for solar gets distributed over entire Thermal Units supplied which may be 10 to 20 paises more per KWH.

Don't you think that this is a brilliant strategy of Indian Solar Mission and TN Govt?

It will not be brilliant for him because the word Tamil is there somewhere.

Also please read my post in renewable energy thread. cost is coming down

No. I came to see my nephew who is working here as a scientist.it is peaceful within the township but hell outside.If u go thru the villages around u feel as though u are going thru enemy territory.The prayers in the nearby church at Idinthakarai are regular and extends to sermons and lectures in hush hush tones bordering on anti national rhetoric.When a local fellow argued with the fellow villagers that if people in kerala have no right to fear on account of old mullaperiyar dam burst as it would never occur just on the basis of assurances of TN govt and its people then in the same way people in the villages around kundankulam must believe the assurances of scientists and experts including the local man Dr.M.A.J Abdul Kalam about the plant safety and there is no dangers on account of earthquakes and tsunami for which the poor fellow was beaten severely and was treated in the nuclear plant clinic.

The strategy might be brilliant but how much solar power is planned to be generated in the 12th five year plan and of which how much TN is going to generate?It should be few hundred MWs at the most and that would not suffice to bridge the huge gap of 3000 MWs between demand and supply as the state faces right now.It would take a decade more to tap solar power at a low affordable cost till then augmenting conventional power generation is the only way.
