Feature Aug 01, 2017 Need conducive environment to transform discom processes The 14 smart grid pilot projects were allotted in 2012. However, none of the 14 projects could be completed till date. Sadly, four of these projects have been cancelled.
Feature Jul 01, 2017 We are pro-actively adapting our facilities to changing technologies Nowadays, technology evolves and upgrades very fast. Do you think, it is a challenge to keep up with the fast-paced change when it comes to a testing facility like ERDA? Electrical Research and Development Association (ERDA) has also witnessed similar challenges in smart meter testing (development of IS:16444- Part-1 & part-2), change in Ministry of new and Renewable Energy (MNRE) specifications for solar lighting systems & solar pumping systems, change in BEE star rating programme for distribut
Feature Jul 01, 2017 Gaining prominence Reliability, quality and standardisation are the three principal norms in the electricity segment. On one side, the retail consumers look for quality power supply. To make this possible, numerous electrical and electronic equipments play a crucial role.
Feature Jul 01, 2017 Poles Apart Despite having been a part of the India power T&D for over 50 years, lack of awareness and expertise of utilities, have left monopoles as yet obscured.
Feature Jul 01, 2017 The market size is Rs.200-250 cr and we expect it to increase substantially BEL offers complete range for monopoles as per requirement of the customer. We design, manufacture and install monopoles from 11 kV to 400 kV.
Feature Jul 01, 2017 Monopoles can replace angular towers when facing RoW issues Monopoles are used for a series of applications and are ideal for use when sufficient availability of land is restricted. They are the least intrusive and easiest towers to erect, making them one of the most popular tower types in the industry.
Feature Jun 01, 2017 On the Right Track Globally, 20 per cent of the total generated energy is used for lighting purposes alone. Experts are of the opinion that the said number has to be revoked considering the challenges arising from climate change issues.
Feature Jun 01, 2017 Rising Opportunities Power is one of the most critical components of infrastructure and is crucial for both economic growth and welfare of the nation. India's power sector is one of the most diversified in the world, with an investment potential of `15 trillion ($223.67 billion) in the next four to five years.
Feature Jun 01, 2017 Energy-efficient power plants crucial to tackle emissions India's power generation capacity has nearly tripled in the last 15 years from 105 GW in 2002 to 315 GW in 2017 as demand for electrical energy surged in a rapidly expanding economy. During this time, 140 GW of coal and gas power generation installed base were set-up.
