 PART B-Plan

Title of micro-project:

1. Brief Description: This microproject is designed to offer participants an informative

overview of a range of renewable energy sources and their significance within the
realm of sustainable energy production. It will cover six major renewable energy
sources. First, participants will explore solar energy, including solar photovoltaic
(PV) systems and concentrated solar power (CSP), delving into the applications of
solar panels and an analysis of their pros and cons. The microproject will then shift its
focus to wind energy, discussing wind turbines, onshore and offshore wind farms,
energy generation, and storage, all while considering the environmental and economic
implications.

2. Aims/Benefits of Micro Project:

• Enhanced Learning: Microprojects provide an opportunity for participants to
gain in-depth knowledge on a specific topic or skill.
• Time-Efficient: Microprojects are typically shorter in duration compared to
larger projects or courses.
• Practical Application: Microprojects often incorporate hands-on tasks and real-
world applications, allowing participants to immediately practice what they've
learned.

3. Course Outcomes Achieved:

CO--a) Develop Public awareness about environment.
CO-b)Select alternative energy resources for Engineering Practice.
CO-c)Conserve Ecosystem and Biodiversity.
CO-d)Apply techniques to reduce Enviornmental Pollution.
CO-e)Manage social issues and Envioronmental Ethics as lifelong learning.

4. Actual Methodology/Procedure Followed:

• Defining objectives and content for each energy source.
• Creating engaging content and interactive learning materials.
• Incorporating real-world examples and case studies.
• Using an online platform for participant engagement.
• Collecting feedback and making improvements for an effective learning
experience.

➢ The most popular renewable energy sources currently are:
1. Solar energy
2. Wind energy
3. Hydro energy
4. Geothermal energy
5. Biomass energy

1.SOLAR ENERGY:

Solar energy is the most abundant permanent energy resourceon earth and it is available for
use in its direct (solar radiation) andindirect (wind, biomass, hydro, ocean, etc.) forms.
The total annual solar radiation falling on the earth is more than7500 times the world’s total
annual primary energy consumptionof 450 EJ. The annual solar radiation reaching the
earth’s surface,approximately 3,400,000 EJ, is an order of magnitude greater thanall the
estimated (discovered and undiscovered) non-renewableenergy resources, including fossil
fuels and nuclear. However, 80%of thepresent worldwide energy use is based on fossil fuels.
Mostparts of India receive 4–7 kWh of solar radiation per square meterper day with 250–
300 sunny days in a year. The highest annual radiation energy is received in Western
Rajasthan while the North-Eastern region of the country receives the lowest annual
radiation.India has a good level of solar radiation, receiving the solar energy.

2.WIND ENERGY:

7
Winds are generated by complex mechanisms involving therotation of the earth, heat
energy from the sun, the cooling effectsof the oceans and polar ice caps, temperature
gradients between land and sea and the physical effects of mountains and other
obstacles. Wind is a widely distributed energy resource. Total world wind capacity at
the end of 2006 was around 72,000 MW.Wind energy is being developed in the
industrialized world for environmental reasons and it has attractions in the developing
world as it can be installed quickly in areas where electricity is urgently needed. In
many instances it may be a cost-effective solution if fossil fuel sources are not readily
available.

3.HYDRO ENERGY:

8
Hydropower is another source of renewable energy thatconverts the potential energy
or kinetic energy of water into mechanical energy in the form of watermills, textile
machines,etc., or as electrical energy (i.e., hydroelectricity generation). It refers to the
energy produced from water (rainfall flowing into rivers, etc.). Hydropower is the
largest renewable energy resource being used for the generation of electricity. Only
about 17% of the vast hydel potential of 150,000 MW has been tapped so far.

6. GEOTHARMEL ENERGY:

Geothermal is energy generated from heat stored in the earth,or the collection of
absorbed heat derived from underground.Immense amounts of thermal energy are
generated and stored in the Earth’s core, mantle and crust. Geothermal energy is at
present contributing about 10,000 MW over the world and India’s small resources can
augment the above percentage. Studies carried out by the geological survey of India
have observed existence of about 340 hot springs in the hot country. These are
distributed in seven geothermal provinces.

5.BIOMASS ENERGY:

In recent years, the interest in using biomass as an energysource has increased and it
represents approximately 14% of worldfinal energy consumption [10]. Estimates have
indicated that 15–50% of the world’s primary energy use could come from biomass
bythe year 2050. Many countries have included the increased use ofrenewable sources

9
 on their political agenda. Biomass is one such resource that could play a substantial
role in a more diverse and sustainable energy mix. The energy obtained from biomass
is a form of renewable energy and, in principle, utilizing this energy does not add
carbon dioxide, a major greenhouse gas, to the atmosphere, in contrast to fossil fuels.
As per an estimate, globally photosynthesis produces 220 billion dry tonnes of
biomass each year with 1% conversion efficiency [11–13]
