Rudrodip Majumdar co-authored Assistant Professor, Energy, Environment and Climate Change Programme Hybridization of geothermal source with ORC-based load loop for uninterrupted generation of steady power https://www.tandfonline.com/doi/full/10.1080/14786451.2021.1895779 International Journal of Sustainable Energy, March 2021 The dynamic performance of a hybrid power plant configuration comprising of a ground heat exchanger and an organic Rankine cycle (ORC) for power generation at the load end is studied. The simulation of dynamic characteristics demonstrates that the proposed geothermal-ORC hybrid system is capable of producing a steady power output of approximately 86.3 kWt. The exergy efficiency of U-shaped BHE without insulation is found to be the maximum. |

Tejal Kanitkar, Nikhil Thejesh, Upasna Ranjan Tejal Kanitkar is Associate Professor; Nikhil Thejesh is Research Fellow; Upasna Ranjan is Research Fellow, Energy, Environment and Climate Change Programme Cost of avoided carbon: Optimizing power supply in southern India https://doi.org/10.1016/j.enpol.2020.111988 Energy Policy, February 2021 This paper analyses the power supply situation in Southern India for the year 2018 to evaluate the impact of renewable energy policies on energy costs and the resulting cost of avoided carbon. An optimization model is built using GAMS. Validating the model results against actual data for the year 2018 suggests that regulatory constraints and policy interventions have reduced the solution space for reasonable cost-based optimization in Southern India. |
