 Current energy scenario - India and World
Energy:
 Property of matter which is manifest as a capacity to
perform work
 One of the major input in economic development of any
country
 In developing country, Energy sector assumes a critical
importance in view of the ever increasing energy needs
requiring huge investments to meet them

16-Jul-14
Classification:
Primary and Secondary energy
Commercial and Non commercial energy
Renewable and Non-Renewable energy

16-Jul-14
 Primary and Secondary energy
Primary energy source are which are either found or stored in
nature
 Coal
 Oil
 Natural gas
 Biomass (such as wood)
 Others like Nuclear energy from radioactive material, potential
energy from earth gravity and thermal energy stored in earth’s
interface

16-Jul-14
Primary energy sources are mostly converted in industrial
utilities into secondary energy sources

16-Jul-14
 Commercial Energy and Non Commercial
Energy
Commercial Energy sources :The energy sources that are
available in the market for a definite price
 Commercial energy forms the basis of industrial, agricultural,
transport and commercial development in the modern world
 Industrialized countries, commercialized fuels are predominant
source not only for economic production, but also for many
household tasks of general population
 Examples: Electricity, lignite, coal, oil, natural gas etc.

16-Jul-14
Non-commercial energy sources : The energy sources that
are not available in the commercial market for a price
 Include fuels which are traditionally gathered, and not
bought at a price used especially in rural households
 These are also called traditional fuels. Non-commercial
energy is often ignored in energy accounting
 Example: 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;
wind energy for lifting water and electricity generation
.

16-Jul-14
 Renewable and Non-Renewable Energy
Renewable energy :energy obtained from sources that are
essentially inexhaustible
 The most important feature of renewable energy is that it
can be harnessed without the release of harmful pollutants
 Examples: wind power, solar power, geothermal energy,
tidal power and hydroelectric power
Non-renewable energy is the conventional fossil fuels such
as coal, oil and gas, which are likely to deplete with time.

 Global Primary Energy Reserves
 Coal
 The proven global coal reserve was estimated to be 9,84,453 million
tonnes by end of 2003
 The USA had the largest share of the global reserve (25.4%)
followed by Russia (15.9%), China (11.6%). India was 4th in the list
with 8.6%
 Oil
 The global proven oil reserve was estimated to be 1147 billion
barrels by the end of 2003
 Saudi Arabia had the largest share of the reserve with almost 23%.
(One barrel of oil is approximately 160 litres)
16-Jul-14
Gas
 The global proven gas reserve was estimated to be 176
trillion cubic meters by the end of 2003
 The Russian Federation had the largest share of the reserve
with almost 27%.
Source: BP Statistical Review of World Energy, June 2004
World oil and gas reserves are estimated at just 45
years and 65 years respectively. Coal is likely to last a
little over 200 years

16-Jul-14
16-Jul-14
 Indian Energy Scenario
 Coal dominates the energy mix in India, contributing to
55% of the total primary energy production
 Over the years, there has been a marked increase in the
share of natural gas in primary energy production from
10% in 1994 to 13% in 1999
 There has been a decline in the share of oil in primary
energy production from 20% to 17% during the same
period

16-Jul-14
 Energy Supply
Coal  at least 84,396 million tonnes of proven
recoverable reserves and fourth largest
producer of lignite
 8.6% of the world reserves(last for about
230 years)
 Production concentrated in states like
Andhra
Pradesh,Maharashtra,bihar,Orissa,Jharkhan
d,west Bengal

Oil  36% of total energy consumption in india

(in top ten nation in world)
Natural gas  8.9% of total energy consumption
,estimated 60 bcm
 Demand 96 mcmd but availability only 67
mcmd
16-Jul-14
Electrical energy  installed capacity of electric power
generating stations under utilities was
1,12,581 MW as on 31st May
2004,consisting of 28,860 MW- hydro,
77,931 MW - thermal and 2,720 MW-
nuclear and 1,869 MW- wind (Ministry of
Power)
 The gross generation of power in the year
2002-2003 stood at 531 billion units (kWh)
Nuclear power  Nuclear Power contributes to about 2.4 per
cent of electricity generated in India. India
has ten nuclear power reactors at five
nuclear power stations producing
electricity
Hydro power  15% of total hydro power harnessed

16-Jul-14
16-Jul-14
 Per capita energy consumption and energy
intensity
 Too low for India as compared to developed country
 4% for USA and 20 % for rest of world
 Likely to grow with growth in economy thus increasing the
energy demand
 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.

16-Jul-14
 Energy policy
 A well written energy policy that has been authorized by
management is as good as the proverbial license to steal.
 It provides the energy manager with the authority to be involved in
business planning, new facility location and planning, the selection
of production equipment, purchase of measuring equipment, energy
reporting, and training—things that are sometimes difficult to do
 To be effective, the policy should be short—two pages at most.
 Many people confuse the policy with a procedures manual
 It should be bare bones, but contain the following items as a
minimum:

16-Jul-14
Objectives
 Contain the standard motherhood and flag statements
about energy
 Most important is that the organization will incorporate
energy efficiency into facilities and new equipment, with
emphasis on life cycle cost analysis rather than lowest
initial cost
Accountability
 This should establish the organizational structure and the
authority for the energy manager, coordinators, and any
committees or task groups
16-Jul-14
Reporting
 Without authority from top management, it is often difficult for the
energy manager to require others within the organization to comply
with reporting requirements necessary to properly manage energy
 The policy is the place to establish this
 It also provides a legitimate reason for requesting funds for
instrumentation to measure energy usage
Training
 If training requirements are established in the policy, it is again
easier to include this in budgets
 It should include training at all levels within the organization.

16-Jul-14
 Factors within an energy policy
1. What is the extent of energy self-sufficiency for this nation?
2. Where future energy source will derive?
3. How future energy will be consumed?
4. Goal for Energy intensity, ratio of energy consumed to GDP?
5. What environmental externalities are acceptable and are forecast?
6. What form of portable energy is forecast?
7. How can National policy drive province, state and municipal
function?

16-Jul-14
 Energy Action Planning
Planning is one of the most important parts of the energy management
program
It has two major functions in the program
 a good plan can be a shield from disruption
 by scheduling events throughout the year, continuous emphasis can
be applied to the energy management program, and will play a
major role in keeping the program active.
The secret to a workable plan is to have people who are
required to implement the plan involved in the planning
process.

16-Jul-14
 Problem definition
The problem is clearly defined to members of the group.
 Grouping
Divide large groups into smaller groups of seven to ten, then have the
group elect a recording secretary.
 Silent generation of ideas
Each person silently and independently writes as many answers to the
problem as can be generated within a specified time
 Round-robin listing
Secretary lists each idea individually until all have been recorded.

16-Jul-14
 Discussion
Ideas are discussed for clarification, elaboration, evaluation and
combining.
 Ranking
Each person ranks the five most important items. The total number of
points received for each idea will determine the first choice of the
group.

16-Jul-14
 Energy Security
 To reduce its dependency on imported energy sources for its
economic growth
 Why energy security in India????
 Experience an energy supply shortfall throughout the forecast period
 Unable to raise oil production and also rising oil demand close to
10% per year
 Government subsidies refined oil product, hence loss to government
 Imports of oil and coal increasing 7 to 16 % per annum
 Imports of LNG are likely to increase in coming year

16-Jul-14
 Strategies for energy securities
1. Diversification of energy supply sources
2. Increased capacity of fuel switching
3. Demand restraint
4. Development of renewable energy sources
5. Energy efficiency
6. Sustainable development

16-Jul-14
 Energy and Environment
 Usage of energy resources in industry leads to environmental
damages by polluting the atmosphere
 Example:
1. Sulphur dioxide
2. Nitrous oxide
3. Carbon monoxide
4. Emissions from boilers and furnaces
5. Chloro-fluro carbons (CFC) emissions from refrigerants use
6. From chemical and fertilizers industries,toxic gases are released.
Cement plants and power plants spew out particulate matter.
16-Jul-14
16-Jul-14
Air Pollution
 A variety of air pollutants have known or suspected
harmful effects on human health and the environment
 Air pollutants not only create problems near to sources but
also can cause problems far away
 Pollutants can travel long distances, chemically react in
the
atmosphere to produce secondary pollutants such as acid
rain or ozone.

16-Jul-14
 Evolutionary Trends in Pollution Problems
 In both developed and rapidly industrializing countries, the major
historic air pollution problem has typically been high levels of
smoke and 𝑆𝑂2 arising from the combustion of sulphur-containing
fossil fuels such as coal for domestic and industrial purposes
 Smogs resulting from the combined effects of black smoke, sulphate
/ acid aerosol and fog have been seen in European cities until few
decades ago and still occur in many cities in developing world
 In developed countries, this problem has significantly reduced over
recent decades as a result of changing fuel-use patterns; the
increasing use of cleaner fuels such as natural gas, and the
implementation of effective smoke and emission control policies.

16-Jul-14
 In both developed and developing countries, the major threat to clean
air is now posed by traffic emissions. Petrol- and diesel-engined
motor vehicles emit a wide variety of pollutants, principally
1. carbon monoxide (CO)
2. oxides of nitrogen (NOx)
3. volatile organic compounds(VOCs) and particulates, which have an
increasing impact on urban air quality
 Photochemical reactions resulting from the action of sunlight on
𝑁𝑂2 and VOCs from vehicles leads to the formation of ozone, a
secondary long-range pollutant, which impacts in rural areas often
far from the original emission site. Acid rain is another long-range
pollutant influenced by vehicle NOx emissions

16-Jul-14
 Industrial and domestic pollutant sources, together with their impact
on air quality, tend to be steady-state or improving over time
 However, traffic pollution problems are worsening world-wide.The
problem may be particularly severe in developing countries with
dramatically increasing vehicle population, infrastructural
limitations, poor engine/emission control technologies and limited
provision for maintenance or vehicle regulation
 The principle pollutants produced by industrial, domestic and traffic
sources are sulphur dioxide, nitrogen oxides, particulate matter,
carbon monoxide, ozone, hydrocarbons, benzene,1,3-butadiene,
toxic organic micro-pollutants, lead and heavy metals.

16-Jul-14
 Principal pollutants
1. Sulphur dioxide
 Corrosive acid gas, which combines with water
vapors in the atmosphere to produce acid rain
 Both wet and dry deposition have been implicated in the damage
and destruction of vegetation and in the degradation of soils,
building materials and watercourses
 𝑆𝑂2 in ambient air is also associated with asthma and chronic
bronchitis
 The principal source of this gas is power stations and industries
burning fossil fuels, which contain sulphur.

16-Jul-14
2. Nitrogen oxides
 formed during high temperature combustion
processes from the oxidation of nitrogen in
the air or fuel
 The principal source of nitrogen oxides - nitric oxide (NO) and
nitrogen dioxide (𝑁𝑂2 ), collectively known as NOx - is road
traffic.NO and 𝑁𝑂2 concentrations are greatest in urban areas where
traffic is heaviest
 Other important sources are power stations and industrial processes
 Nitrogen oxides are released into the atmosphere mainly in the form
of NO, which is then readily oxidised to NO2 by reaction with
ozone
16-Jul-14
 Elevated levels of NOx occur in urban environments under stable
meteorological conditions, when the air mass is unable to disperse
 Nitrogen dioxide has a variety of environmental and health impacts.
It irritates the respiratory system and may worsen asthma and
increase susceptibility to infections
 In the presence of sunlight, it reacts with hydrocarbons to produce
photochemical pollutants such as ozone
 Nitrogen oxides combine with water vapour to form nitric acid. This
nitric acid is in turn removed from the atmosphere by direct
deposition to the ground, or transfer to aqueous droplets(e.g. cloud
or rainwater), thereby contributing to acid deposition.

16-Jul-14
3. Acidification from 𝑆𝑂2 and Nox
 Acidification of water bodies and soils, and the consequent impact
on agriculture, forestry and fisheries are the result of the re-
deposition of acidifying compounds resulting principally from the
oxidation of primary 𝑆𝑂2 and 𝑁𝑂2 emissions from fossil fuel
combustion
 Deposition may be by either wet or dry processes, and acid
deposition studies often need to examine both of these acidification
routes.

16-Jul-14
4. Particulate matter
 varies widely in its physical and chemical composition, source and
particle size
 𝑃𝑀10 particles (the fraction of particulates in air of very small size
(<10 μm)) are of major current concern, as they are small enough to
penetrate deep into the lungs and so potentially pose significant
health risks
 In addition, they may carry surface-absorbed carcinogenic
compounds into the lungs
 Larger particles, meanwhile, are not readily inhaled, and are
removed relatively efficiently from the air by settling

16-Jul-14
 A major source of particulate matters are combustion processes, in
particular diesel combustion, where transport of hot exhaust vapour
into a cooler exhaust pipe can lead to spontaneous nucleation of
"carbon" particles before emission
 formed when low volatility products are generated in the
atmosphere, for example the oxidation of sulphur dioxide to
sulphuric acid
 Concern about the potential health impacts of 𝑃𝑀10 has increased
very rapidly over recent years
 Increasingly, attention has been turning towards monitoring of the
smaller particle fraction 𝑃𝑀2.5 capable of penetrating deepest into
the lungs, or to even smaller size fractions or total particle numbers

16-Jul-14
5. Carbon monoxide (CO)
 Toxic gas, which is emitted into the atmosphere as a result of
combustion processes, and from oxidation of hydrocarbons and
other organic compounds
 In urban areas, CO is produced almost
entirely (90%) from road traffic emissions
CO at levels
 found in ambient air may reduce the oxygen-carrying capacity of the
blood
 It survives in the atmosphere for a period of approximately 1 month
and finally gets oxidized to carbon dioxide (𝐶𝑂2 ).

16-Jul-14
6. Ground-level ozone (𝑂3 )
 secondary pollutant produced by reaction between
nitrogen dioxide (𝑁𝑂2 ), hydrocarbons and sunlight
 Ozone can irritate the eyes and air passages causing breathing
difficulties and may increase susceptibility to infection
 It is a highly reactive chemical, capable of attacking surfaces,
fabrics and rubber materials
 Ozone is also toxic to some crops, vegetation and trees
 𝑁𝑂2 participates in the formation of ozone, NO destroys ozone to
form oxygen (𝑂2 ) and nitrogen dioxide (𝑁𝑂2 ).For this reason, ozone
levels are not as high in urban areas (where high levels of NO are
emitted from vehicles).
16-Jul-14
7. Hydrocarbons
 There are two main groups of hydrocarbons of concern: volatile
organic compounds (VOCs) and polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons
(PAHs)
 VOCs are released in vehicle exhaust gases either as unburned fuels
or as combustion products, and are also emitted by the evaporation
of solvents and motor fuels
 Benzene and 1,3-butadiene are of particular concern, as they are
known carcinogens
 Other VOCs are important because of the role they play in the
photochemical formation of ozone in the atmosphere.

16-Jul-14
 Benzene
 is an aromatic VOC, human
carcinogen,which is a minor
constituent of petrol (about 2% by
volume)
 main sources of benzene in the
atmosphere are combustion by
petrol vehicles(70% of total
emissions)
 refining, distribution and
evaporation of petrol from
vehicles(10% of total emissions)
 emitted in vehicle exhaust not only
as unburnt fuel but also as a
product of the decomposition of
other aromatic compounds
1,3-butadiene
 like benzene, human carcinogen, is
a VOC emitted into the atmosphere
principally from fuel combustion
of petrol and diesel vehicles
 it is not a constituent of the fuel but
is produced by the combustion of
olefins
 an important chemical in certain
industrial processes, manufacture
of synthetic rubber
 handled in bulk at a small number
of industrial locations, the
dominant source of 1,3-butadiene
in the atmosphere are the motor
vehicle 16-Jul-14
8. TOMPs (Toxic Organic Micropollutants)
 produced by the incomplete combustion of fuels. They comprise a complex range
of chemicals some of which, although they are emitted in very small quantities,
are highly toxic or and carcinogenic
 Compounds in this category include:PAHs (PolyAromatic Hydrocarbons),PCBs
(Polychlorinated Biphenyls),Dioxins, Furans
9. Heavy Metals and Lead
 Particulate metals in air result from activities such as fossil fuel
combustion(including vehicles), metal processing industries and waste
incineration.
 There are currently no emission standards for metals other than lead. Lead is a
cumulative poison to the central nervous system, particularly detrimental to the
mental development of children.
 Its single largest industrial use worldwide is in the manufacture of batteries and it
is also used in paints, glazes, alloys, radiation shielding, tank lining and piping.
 As tetraethyl lead, it has been used for many years as an additive in petrol; with
the increasing use of unleaded petrol, however, emissions and concentrations in 16-Jul-14
air have reduced steadily in recent years
 Climatic change

 Human activities, particularly the combustion of fossil fuels, have

made the blanket of greenhouse gases (water vapour, carbon
dioxide, methane, ozone etc.) around the earth
 Increase in global temperature, due to this green house gases. It also
changes pattern in rainfall, wind patterns, ocean currents and
distribution of plant and animal species.

16-Jul-14
16-Jul-14
 Life on earth is made possible by energy from the sun, which
arrives mainly in the form of visible light.
 About 30 percent of the sunlight is scattered back into space by
outer atmosphere and the balance 70 percent reaches the earth's
surface, which reflects it in form of infrared radiation
 The escape of slow moving infrared radiation is delayed by the
green house gases
 Greenhouse gases makeup only 1 percent of the atmosphere,
but they act as a blanket around the earth, or like a glass roof of
a greenhouse and keep the earth 30 degrees warmer than it
would be otherwise - without greenhouse gases, earth would be
too cold to live.

16-Jul-14
Human activities made this layer thicker
A thicker blanket of greenhouse gases traps more infrared
radiation and increase the earth's temperature
Even a small increase in earth's temperature will be
accompanied by changes in climate such as cloud cover,
precipitation, wind patterns and duration of seasons
Carbon dioxide is responsible for 60 percent of the
Currently, carbon dioxide
levels in the atmospheric are rising by over 10 percent
every 20 years.

 Role of Renewables
Importance of renewables
Share of renewables
Generation
Subsidies
Employment
Distribution
Social benefits

16-Jul-14
1. In long term planning renewables remain important to
India's energy sector
2. Solar power could be an important player in India
attaining energy independence in long term
3. Renewables may account for only 5-6% of india’s energy
mix by 2031-32
4. The distributed nature of renewables can provide many
social-economic benefits
5. A renewable energy source is environmental friendly

16-Jul-14
6. It may locally available ,so it impossible to supply energy
earlier than in a centralized system
7. Renewables may provide employment and livelihood to
the poor
8. An annual renewable energy report should be published
providing details of actual performance of different
renewable technologies at the state and national level
9. Policies for promoting specific alternatives are suggested
in the main text
10.These include fuel wood plantation: bio gas plants, wood
gasifier based power plant, solar water heaters, biodiesel
and ethanol 16-Jul-14
 Energy conservation
Why??????
 Coal and other fossil fuels, which have taken three million years to
form, are likely to deplete soon
 In the last two hundred years, we have consumed 60% of all
resources
 For sustainable development, we need to adopt energy efficiency
measures
 Today, 85% of primary energy comes from nonrenewable, and fossil
sources (coal, oil, etc.)
 These reserves are continually diminishing with increasing
consumption and will not exist for future generations
16-Jul-14
 Energy Conservation and Energy Efficiency are separate, but related concepts
Energy conservation Energy efficiency

conservation promotional
Energy efficiency is often viewed as a resource option like
coal, oil or natural gas
It provides additional economic value by preserving the
resource base and reducing pollution
For example, replacing traditional light bulbs with
Compact Fluorescent Lamps (CFLs) means you will use
only 1/4th of the energy to light a room. Pollution levels
also reduce by the same

16-Jul-14

Major areas where efficiency in energy use can make substantial
impact are
Mining Air conditioning
Building design Water pumping
Electricity generation Industrial production
process
Construction Household appliance
Electricity transmission Mass transport
Heating and ventilation Electricity distribution

16-Jul-14
 Energy efficiency and Demand side
management

Demand side management is the

important strategy used to ensure
energy security and to fulfill the
energy demand and energy challenges

16-Jul-14
 Lowering energy intensity of GDP growth through higher energy
efficiency
(energy intensity of india’s growth has been falling and is about half of
what it used to be in early seventies. Currently we consume 0.16 kg of
oil equivalent per dollar of GDP)
 Studies conform that there is room to improve and energy intensity
can be brought down significantly with current available
technologies
 It may be noted that a unit of energy saved by a user is greater than a
unit produced as it saves production losses as well as transport,
transmission and distribution losses

16-Jul-14
 Efficiency can be increased in energy
extraction,conversion,transportations as well as
consumption
