2. INTRODUCTION
1. Conventional Energy Plants:
a) Thermal Power Plant
b) Hydroelectric Power Plant
2. Non-conventional Energy Plants :
a) Wind energy Plant
b) Solar Energy Plant
c) Biomass Energy Plant
d) Tidal Energy Plant
3. Renewable energy
1) The energy which is harvested from the natural
resources like sunlight, wind, tides, geothermal
heat etc. is called Renewable Energy.
2) These resources can be naturally replenished
,and can be considered to be limitless and helps
in reduction in the level of pollution.
3) The cost of conventional energy is rising and
solar energy has emerged to be a promising
alternative. They are abundant, pollution
free, distributed throughout the earth and
recyclable.
4. Energy Scenario in India
1. India currently suffers from a major shortage of
electricity generation capacity, even though it is
the world’s fourth largest energy consumer after
United States, China and Russia.
2. The International Energy Agency estimates India
needs an investment of at least $135 billion to
provide universal access of electricity to its
population.

7. SWITCHING TO NCER
1. Renewable Energy in India is a sector that is still
undeveloped.
2. RE contribution to energy sector is less than 1% of
India's total energy needs.
3. It is imperative that India obtains energy security
without affecting the booming economy.
4. This would mean that the country must switch from
the non-renewable energy to renewable energy.
8. Different sources of
Renewable Energy
I. Wind Power:
Worldwide there are now many thousands of wind
turbines functioning, with a total nameplate capability of
194,400MW.
II. Solar power:
The captured heat can be used as solar thermal
energy with important applications in space heating.
9. III. Biomass:
Biomass works as a natural battery to store the
sun’s energy and yield it on requirement.
IV. Geothermal:
Geothermal energy is the thermal energy which
is generated and stored within the layers of the Earth.
10. Solar power
This can be employed in two
major ways. The captured heat
can be used as solar thermal
energy
with
important
applications in space heating.
On the other hand it can also be
converted into the most useful
form of energy, the electrical
energy. The latter can be
achieved with the use of solar
photovoltaic cell.
13. OUR PROJECT
1. We are modeling a solar based non-conventional
energy generation system using MATLAB software.
2. Analyzing various aspects of solar plant.
3. Problems related to connecting it to the grid.
4. Effects of irradiation change and weather conditions
on power generation.
5. System performance and transient responses also to
be analyzed under the disturbance conditions.
6. The system is simulated in MATLAB.
7. If time permits , conventional plant can also be
connected to it.

Solar Cell Parameter Tuning
This demo optimizes the Solar Cell block's parameters to fit data defined over
a range of different temperatures. It uses the MATLAB(R) optimization function
fminsearch. Other products available for performing this type of parameter
fitting with SimElectronics(TM) models are the Optimization Toolbox(TM) and
the Simulink(R) Design Optimization(TM). These products provide predefined
functions to manipulate and analyze blocks using GUIs or a command line approach.

16. Conclusion
Solar technologies are broadly qualified as either passive or
active depending on the way they catch, change over and
distribute sunlight.
Active solar proficiencies use photovoltaic
arrays, pumps, and fans to convert sunlight into executable
outputs.
The standalone PV Systems have been used for solar street
lighting, home lighting system, SPV water pumping system.
In grid connected system the major part of the load during
the day is supplied by the PV array and then from the grid
when the sunlight is not sufficient.
