(A) EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
The Electricity Act, 2003, paves way for an innovative approach to solve our
country’s power problems. It has paved the way for a competitive environment;
open access to existing transmission and distribution network to transmit electricity
across regions; de-licensing of generation, captive power and dedicative
transmission lines; licensing of distribution and supply companies and the
restructuring of State Electricity Boards
The Ministry of Power have a mandate to promote cogeneration and renewable

sources for Power generation under Nodal agencies and hence it will play a major
role in mainstreaming renewable energy sector. The advantage or renewable
resources includes their capacity to produce energy without producing carbon-
based warming and polluting agents into the atmosphere. The financial cost of its
applications is not always cheap but if the environmental costs of using fossil are
accounted for, renewable energy wins hands-down. There are also indirect savings
on health and its costs as there are no harmful emissions.
In the above backdrop, Sahil Energy Pvt. Ltd., has decided to set up a 5MW Solar
Power Plant. This Detailed Project Report (DPR) brings out all technical details and
overall costs justifying the selection of the project. The total power generation is
envisaged to be 5MW from Solar Photovoltaic Cell. It is a very important document
that is required for Environmental Impact Assessment (EIA) studies, fixation of tariff,
finalizing Power Purchase Agreement (PPA) and also for submission to Financial
Institutions for obtaining project funding. The total project cost is expected to be
Rs85 Crores and the average cost of generation is expected to be Rs.12.86 /kWh.

INTRODUCTION TO THE PROJECT

1.0 INTRODUCTION
World Economic growth is driven by energy, whether in the form of finite resources
such as coal, oil and gas or in renewable forms such as hydroelectric, wind, solar
and biomass or its converted form. This energy generation and consumption
strengthens the nation’s industries, vehicles, homes and offices. It also has
significant impact on the quality of the country’s air, water, land and forest
resources. For future growth to be both rapid and sustainable, it needs to be as
resource efficient and environmentally benign as possible.
2.0 GENERATION OF ELECTRICITY & IMPORTANCE OF RENEWABLE ENERGY
The growth in installed power generating capacity has not kept pace with the
projected demand. To solve this problem, it is necessary to set up more power
plants and most of these power plants will be either fossil fuel based or hydro
electric units. However, the conventional power stations cause enormous damage
to be environment due to pollution and other side effects.
Renewable energy sources energy source are wonderful options because they are
limitless. These will not be exhausted though fossil fuel will be gradually exhausted
in course of time. Also another great benefit from using renewable energy is that
most of these sources do not pollute the environment; the way burning of fossil fuels
dose.
3.0 SOURCE OF GREENHOUSE GAS
The greenhouse gas emissions (GHG) come primarily from the combustion of fossil
fuels in energy use. Energy use is largely driven by economic growth with short-
term fluctuations in its growth rate created by weather patterns affecting heating and
cooling needs, as well as changes in the fuel used in electricity generation.
The burning of fossil fuels produces around 21.3 billion tones of Carbon Dioxide per
year, but it is estimated that natural processes can only absorb about half of that
amount, so there is a net increase of 10.65 billion tones of atmospheric carbon
dioxide per year. Carbon dioxide is one of the GHG that enhances radioactive
forcing and contributes to global warming, causing the average surface temperature
of the earth to rise. Environment scientists predict that this will cause major adverse
effects, including reduced biodiversity.
The electricity sector is unique among industrial sectors in its very large contribution
to emissions associated with nearly all air issues. Electricity generation produces a
large share of nitrogen oxides and sulphur dioxide emissions, which contribute to
smog and acid rain and the formation of fine particulate matter in addition to carbon
dioxide. In addition, this sector has significant impacts on water and habitat and
species. In particular, hydro dams and transmission lines have significant effects on
water and biodiversity
4.0 GREEN HOUSE GAS CONCENTRATION TRENDS
The atmospheric concentration of CO2 has increased by 31% since 1750 and
continues to increase, on average, by 1.5 ppm or 0.4% per year. About 80% of the
anthropogenic emissions of CO2 during the past 20 years is due to fossil fuel
burning and cement production. The rest is due to deforestation. The atmospheric
concentrations of CH4 and N2O have increased by 151% and 17%, respectively,
since 1750. The table given below shows the 20 th Century changes in the Earth’s
atmosphere system for selected GHGs.
TABLE – ATMOSPHERE COCENTRATION OF GHGs IN THE 21ST CENTURY

Tropospheric O3 Increases by 35 ± 15% from 1750, varies with region
HFCs, PFCs, SF6 Increased globally over last 50 years
5.0 ATMOSPERIC LIFETIME & GLOBAL WARMING POTENTIAL (GWP) FOR SOME
GREEN HOUSE GASES
5.1 CARBON DIOXIDE (CO2)
CO2 It has a variable atmospheric lifetime, and cannot be specified precisely.

Recent studies indicate that recovery from a large input of atmospheric CO2 from
burning fossil fuels will result in an effective lifetime of tens of thousands of years.
Carbon dioxide to have a GWP of 1 over all time periods.
5.2 METHANE (CH4)
Methane has an atmospheric lifetime of 12+3 years and a GWP of 62 over 20 years,
23 over 100 years and 7 over 500 years. The decrease in GWP at longer timer is
because methane is degraded to water and CO2 by chemical reactions in the
atmosphere.
5.3 NITROUS OXIDE (NOX)
Nitrous Oxide has an atmospheric lifetime of 120 years and a GWP of 296 over 100
years
5.4 CFC 12
CFC – 12 has an atmospheric lifetime of 100 years and a GWP of 106000 over 100
years
5.5 HCFC – 22
HFFC – 22 has an atmospheric lifetime of 121 years and a GWP of 1700 over 100
years
5.6 TETRAFLUOROMETHANE
Tetrafluoromethane has an atmospheric lifetime of 50,000 years and a GWP of

5700 over 100 years
5.7 SULPHUR HEXAFLUORIDE (SF6)
SF6 has an atmospheric lifetime of 3,200 years and a GWP of 22000 over 100
years
6.0 WORLD ENERGY SCENARIO
It was estimated that in 2005, 86% of primary energy production in the world came
from burning fossil fuels, with the remaining non-fossil sources being hydroelectric
6.3%, nuclear 6.0%, and renewable energy sources, i.e. geothermal, solar, wind,
biomass and wastes contributed only 0.9%.
7.0 BACKGROUND OF THE PROJECT
Large multi-megawatt PV plants, approximately to 50 MW, are now in operation in

the world.
Solar Photovoltaic (PV) is known to be an important energy source for developing

countries like India. Its importance is now being reaffirmed even by developed
countries in view of its renewable and environment friendly character. In our country
also, optimum utilization of solar energy could not only lead to savings in
conventional energy but also result in many indirect benefits. In India 2MW solar PV
now are commercially operated by independent power producer. But till now solar
technology is expensive compared to other technology and significant financial
assistance from government is needed to the developers and operators of new
plants.
In view of this, the Ministry of New & Renewable Energy Sources has been
promoting electricity generation from Solar PV in Mega-Watt level. These projects
are covered under the Grid Interactive Solar PV Power Generation Projects of
Ministry of New & Renewable Energy Sources, Govt. of India. The Ministry initiated
the programme to establish as a viable and environment friendly electricity
generation option.
8.0 BARRIERS IN DEVELOPMENT OF THE PROJECT
The project has been identified with some barriers as mentioned below:
(a) Higher capital cost – The initial capital investment of the project is so high
compared to other conventional power Project, so per MW cost is high.
(b) Low Capacity Utilization factor – the total unit generation is low compared to
other electricity generation system, because maximum of 6 hours in a day
plant gets the solar light and generates the power.
The project being first of its kind in the state, thee could be more risks and barriers
which might surface as the project progresses and it is difficult to enumerate all at
this stage.
9.0 BENEFITS OF GRID CONNECTED SOLAR PV POWER PLANT
(a) Power from the sun is clean, silent, limitless and free
(b) Photovoltaic process releases no CO2, SO2 or NO2 gases which are normally
associated with burning finite fossil fuel reserves and don’t contribute to global
warming.
(c) Photovoltaics are now a proven technology which is inherently safe as

opposed to other fossil fuel based electricity generating technologies.
(d) No fuel is required for generation, so fuel cost of power generation is zero.
(e) Solar power shall augment the needs of peak power needs
(f) Increase the grid reliability i.e., voltage and frequency

(g) Solar Powered Grid Connect Plants can act as tail end energizers, which in
turn reduces the transmission and distribution losses.
(h) Provides a potential revenue source in a diverse energy portfolio
(i) Assists in meeting renewable portfolio standards goals
(j) Generation of electricity from Solar PV is totally free of Green House Gas
emission.
10.0 CHOICE OF TECHNOLOGY
Proposed power plant converts sunlight directly into electrical energy by Solar PV
Module. It produces DC current.
There are two types of solar power plants, mainly
(a) Stand alone
(b) Grid Connected
In Grid Connected type power plant, Modules supplies DC current to inverter. Then
DC is converted to low voltage AC current. AC power is stepped up by 415 / 11 kV
step up transformer & fed to the grid.
Now a days there are two types of solar cells available in market
(a) Amorphous type

(b) Crystalline type
(c) Thin Film (CIGS/CdTe) type
The efficiency of amorphous is less than crystalline. So, more area is needed to set
up same capacity solar plant with amorphous type cells.
Polycrystalline solar cells are used in proposed solar power plant.

DEMAND ANALYSIS AND JUSTIFICATION OF THE PROJECT

1.0 INTRODUCTION
It is well know fact that electricity is the most essential input for growth and
development of any state. Andhra pradesh is planning to go rapidly in both the
industrial and agricultural sectors and consequently the demand for power is on the
rise. However, despite Andhrapradesh possessing immense potential of power
ranging from Coal to natural gas not taken place on a scale commensurate with the
possibilities. As a result there exists a big gap between conventional and Non-
conventional power generation for power in the State.
2.0 SOLAR POWER POTENTIAL IN INDIA
India is endowed with rich solar energy resource. The average intensity of solar
radiation received in India is 200 MW/km square (megawatt per kilometer square),
but the amount of solar energy produced in India is merely 0.5% compared to other
energy resources till date
India just have 2.12 megawatts of grid-connect solar generation capacity. As part of
the National Solar Mission, the ministry aims to booster the annual photovoltaic
production to at least 1,000 megawatts a year by 2017. With an installed capacity of
123 GW, the country currently faces energy shortage of 8 percent and a peak
demand shortage of 11.6 percent, In order to sustain a growth rate of 8 percent, it is
estimated that the power generation capacity in India would have to increase to 306
GW in the next ten years which is 2.5 times current levels.

4.0 SOLAR ENERGY POTENTIAL IN MAHARASHTRA
Solar power plants are a necessity at places in Andhra Pradesh for providing
electricity to improve the standard of living of the people. Financial constraints in
the public sector and non-remunerative characteristics of economics act as
disincentives to private entrepreneurs.
Till now, no grid connected solar power plant is being setup in AP though some of
projects are already sanctioned. Nodal agency of Energy, NEDCAP has already
announced tariff policies for solar energy as per MNRE rules
The proposed plant may be the first kind of Solar Power Plant in state that
supplies the solar electricity to the grid
4.1 Promotion Policies of MNRE
The promotional policies of MNRE for solar power generation are enclosed in
annexure-1
4.3 Clean Development Mechanism (CDM)
Normally grid connected power plants generate electricity by burning fossil fuel,
which results in GHG emissions and other associated emissions like Sox and
NOx. The proposed power plant project activity aims at reducing these GHG
emissions in addition to power generation by installing a 1.0 MW Solar power
generation plant, to supply power to the Grid

(b) How CDM Works?
An investor from a developed country can invest in, or provide finance for a
project in a developing country that reduces greenhouse gas emissions so that
they are lower than they would have been without the extra investment- i.e.
compared to what would have happened without the CDM under a business as
usual outcome. The investor then gets credits- carbon credits-for the reductions
and can use those credits to meet their Kyoto target. If the CDM works perfectly it
will not result in more or less emission reduction being achieved than were agreed
under the Kyoto protocol, it will simply change the location in which some of the
reductions will happen. For example, a French company needs to reduce its
emissions as part of its contribution to meet France’s emission reduction target
under the Kyoto Protocol. Instead of reducing emissions from its own activities in
France, the company provides funding for the construction of a new biomass plant
in India that would not have been able to go ahead without this investment. This
they argue, prevents the construction of new fossil-fueled plants in India, or
displaces consumption of electricity from existing ones, leading to Global
Environmental Concerns reduction in greenhouse gas emissions in India. The
French investor gets credit for those reductions and can use them to help meet
their reduction target in France.
(c) Significance of CDM
(i) Achieve sustainable development
(ii) Reduce impact on environment
(iii) Additional stream of income through sale of emission reductions
(iv) Contributes for rural development
(v) Reduce pollution levels
(vi) Technology improvement
(vii) Improves Economics of Project
(viii) Helps developed countries to achieve their emission reduction

TECHNICAL FEATURE & EQUIPMENTS OF THE PLANT

1.0 BASIC SYSTEM DESCRIPTION
Solar Photovoltaic power generator consists of solar modules in series and

parallel connections, these convert solar radiations into DC electrical power at
the pre-determined range of Voltages whenever sufficient solar radiation is
TEE-185- available. The 5MW SOLAR
individual PV GRIDsolar
crystalline CONNECTED
cells are connected SHtogether
Page 25 inof a
module (in series connection), which are hermetically sealed to survive in rugged
weather conditions and ensures optimum performance during its ling life
In order to achieve a higher system voltage, modules are installed in a row

arrangement, called a string. A higher system voltage has the advantage of
lesser installation work, higher efficiency of the entire plant and usage of smaller
cross section cables. Calculated no. of strings is connected in parallel by cables
in Junction Boxes. These junction boxes not only act as a junction point but also
monitor each string output which will be fed to the central monitoring and
analysis system. Outputs from many such junction boxes are connected in
parallel in the Main Combiner Box (MCB). This Main Combiner Box output is fed
to the central inverters/Power Control Unit (PCU) to invert solar generated DC
power in to conventional 3 phase AC power.
Central inverter or PCU operate on MPPT (Maximum power point tracking) mode
to ensure maximum output from the solar generators at different ambient
conditions. Central inverters use higher system voltages to reach very high plant
efficiency. Furthermore, installations can be expanded with additions of more
modules without problems.
AC power from inverters will be fed to LV panel which in turn will be stepped up
through transformer. Power at 11kv/22Kv will be transmitted by overhead
transmission line to grid.
2.0 OPERATION PHILOSOPHY
Solar panels mounted in the field generate DC electric power. The DC electric
power generated by the solar panels cannot be fed directly in to the utility grid.
The GCI range of inverters invert the direct current output from the solar array
into grid compliant AC voltage, feeds it in to the utility grid system with proper
protection and control. The grid connected inverter (GCI) range of inverters
comes with built-in transformer that ensures galvanic isolation of the DC side
from the AC network. This is an important requirement for many utilities to permit
connection of solar panels on to the grid. The system automatically starts up in
the morning and begins to export power to the grid, provided there is sufficient
solar energy and the grid voltage, frequency is within the range. If the grid goes
out of range the inverter will be immediately disconnected and reconnected
automatically at a pre determined time after the grid comes back within range.
When the exported power is very negligible for a pre determined time the system
will go into an sleep mode by disconnecting the inverter from the grid.

SWOT ANALYSIS
SWOT ANALYSIS.
Non – Conventional Sources, which are renewable in nature, are termed as the
alternate sources of energy. The Challenges of the present – energy scenario
offer us a window of the opportunity in the form of renewable energy sources.
The Power from the sun is clean , silent , limitless and free. Photovoltaic (PV)
process releases no CO2 , SO2 or NO2 gases which are normally associated
with burning finite fossil fuel reserve and don’t contribute to global warming .
Solar power shall augment the need of peak power needs & increases the grid
reliability I.e , Voltage and frequency. Solar Powered grid connect plants can act
as tail end energizes , which in turn reduces the transmission and distribution
losses.
(a) Geographically India is situated at northern hemisphere near the

Equator. So India gets maximum solar irradiation and there is ample of
scope to produce the power from solar PV. But till now this area is totally
virgin area for producing power.
(b) This is true that solar PV efficiency is very low compared to other power
generation systems , Lots of R&D is going on the improve the efficiency.
Solar PV generates electricity only at day time , So the proposed solar
PV Power plant generates power on an average only about six hours in
day time.
(C) India is potentially one of the largest markets for solar energy in the
world. The estimate4d potential of power generation through solar
photovoltaic system is about 20 MW/Sq.km in India. It is useful for
providing grid quality, reliable power in rural area where the line voltage
is low and insufficient cater to connected load. Recent Government
incentives and policies have been providing the momentum for PV in
India . The Government of India already declared national Action plan on
climate change released in mid 2008, identifies eight critical mission –
one of which is the National Solar Mission.
(d) In comparison to other sources of power generation, the PV solar power
is totally dependent in nature . The capacity utilization factor of such type
of plant is only 19%. Because averagely in the year we get 6 hr sunlight
in a day . Only this particular interval solar plant generates electricity.
In comparison to other conventional power generating units, solar power
generating unit has many advantages like.
(a) No fuel is required for power generation.

(b) Operation & Maintenance Manpower required is less.
( c) Plant will be running smoothly for a long period as compared to other
conventional power generation units.
(d) In environmental perspective , solar power plant generates clean energy
and gets maximum clean development mechanism (CDM) benefit as
compared to other conventional power generation units.
Considering all the above points, solar power generating potential is always
ahead of all other conventional power generating units in economical &
Environment point of view.
