Geothermal project in Indonesia Geothermal project in Indonesia TATA Power Emerging Renewable Energy Player Other Innovative sources of Energy
Waste Gas Generation : Tata Power has set up various plants at Haldia and in Jamshedpur based on the blast furnace and coke oven gases which are waste gases from steel making process which help in reducing greenhouse gas emission significantly. Its looking at other similar projects with Tata Steel. Focus on Clean technologies :Tata Power is experimenting with span of unique pilot projects across energy sources. Biomass gasification: A 250kW system using rice husk will be installed at the Tata hydro power plant. near Karjat. If successful, this technology can be taken to hundreds of villages.
TATA Power Emerging Renewable Energy Player Other Innovative sources of Energy Concentrated photovoltaic (C-PV): A 13.5kW pilot unit is being developed in which sunrays are concentrated on PV cells and the assembly floats on Walwhan lake (Maharashtra) in order to cool the cells. If successful, this technology can be scaled up across all the lakes that provide hydro power to Tata plants in West Maharashtra and thus generate about 1,000 MW. Solar powered telecom towers: More than 600,000 telecom towers in India use diesel generator sets to provide power to their antennas. Tata BP Solar is providing solar PV panels that can replace the gensets on 25 such installations. This technology can be upgraded to augment power to local grids. High altitude wind: Tata Power will test a 35kW turbine mounted on a blimp that will float 333m above the ground to catch winds that are more intense and sustained at that altitude.
