Kovalam Solar Project

Solar street lights to brighten up Kovalam

The Tourism Department has taken the initiative to light up Kovalam, the city�s numero uno tourist hot spot, with solar street lights as part of the master plan prepared for the comprehensive development of the popular haunt. The new system will not have any such complaints as the lights are powered by solar energy. This is expected to prove successful and so we will install it at other tourist destinations soon,� said Kadakampally.
The first solar light was installed near the Napier Museum and 37 solar lights were installed at the Veli Tourism Village here. Next up, the focus is on implementing the lights on the Shanghumughom Beach premises. The company has submitted the feasibility study for implementing the project at Shanghumughom to the Tourism Department.
This system of remote monitoring and operation of street lights from a central station is based on the GSM/GPRS technology on which mobile phones work. Currently, a timer has been implemented in the system to control it which can be modified to online or automatic control based on the requirements.

Kerala's Solar target set at 1,870 MW by 2022

The total installed capacity of the state, all sources in the state included, is now just shy of 3,000 MW. The KSEB alone expects to complete 15 solar power projects with a total installed capacity of 9.2 MW in 2018-19. Majority of these are rooftop solar plant projects in schools, government buildings and local bodies. In addition to these, the KSEB has also launched paperwork on seven other solar power projects. Of the 200 MW Kasargod solar project, a 50 MW component is already functional. Moreover, the KSEB has also given conditional clearance for purchasing electricity generated at the proposed 170 MW solar project planned by NTPC Ltd at Kayamkulam, according to Electricity Minister M M Mani. ANERT pursues three separate schemes for generation of solar power using rooftop plants.
ANERT is now promoting the Renewable Energy Service Company (RESCO) model in the state for encouraging government hospitals and establishments to take up solar projects. The big attraction of this model, which is promoted by the Solar Energy Corporation of India (SECI), is the government agencies will not have to make any initial investment.
