     SOLAR COOKER PROGRAMME

For solar cooking there are two methods of collecting sun’s energy

-Trapping it in a box (e.g. a box type solar cooker)

-Focussing it to a point to cook (e.g. a parabolic / dish type concentrating solar cooker).

A dish type solar cooker consists of a dish of 1.4 m dia made of thin bright anodized
Aluminium reflectors erected on a powder coated MS stand.

A Dish type solar cooker can cook food for about 10 to 15 people in 1½ to 2 hours.

COST :

The cost of a box type solar cooker is approximately Rs.1800/-. The State Government is promoting the use of box type solar cookers by providing a subsidy of
Rs.500/- per solar cooker.

The cost of a dish type solar cooker is approximately Rs.5100/-. The Ministry of New & Renewable Energy, Govt. of India is promoting dish type solar cookers by providing subsidy @ 30% of the cost of the solar cooker limited to Rs.1500/- per dish type solar cooker and the State Govt. is providing subsidy on dish type solar cooker @ Rs.1500/-.  The dish type solar cooker is available to the users at a cost of Rs.2100/- including the cost of a 5 liter pressure cooker.

Eligibility:

As only women are the end users of this technology, only women residents of Haryana are eligible for subsidy under the scheme.The cooker are available from the office of the Additional Deputy Commissioner office of the concerned districts

Achievements of HAREDA

So far, 22,721 box type solar cookers and 4129 dish type solar cookers have been sold in the State.

     Solar Water Heating System Programme

             Solar water heating is a most efficient and techno-economically viable technology for
     meeting the hot water requirement in 60 to 120 degree temperature ranges.

               These systems are suitable for Hotels, Dairies, Hospitals, Restaurants, Homes and
      Process Industries were hot water is required.

               It works for almost 300 sunny days in a year.

               A solar water heater works on the principle of the property of black bodies to absorb
      heat faster. A collector has a specially black coated copper sheet which absorbs the
      solar energy and transfers it to the water flowing through tubes  on its back side.
      The hot water being lighter, rises up and is stored in the insulated hot water tank.
      This hot water can be used when required.

COST & SAVINGS:

                          A 100 litres per day system costs about Rs. 21,900/-.

              Saves about Rs. 2200/- units of electricity annually.

              The payback period ranges from 3 to 5 years depending upon the use and fuel
     replaced.

              In addition to this, a 100litre per day solar water heating system prevents the
     emissions of 1.5 tonnes of CO2 annually.

 For the sake of providing service and quality equipments to the users, HAREDA ranges a rate contract for supply and installation of solar water heating systems and installs the system under its supervision.   Services charges @ 5% of the project cost are charged for the services rendered. The prevalent rates of solar water heating systems of various capacities and the addresses of the supplies on the rate contract as under:- 

    Capacity-wise Rates of Solar Water Heating Systems :                

*The systems with 100 to 1000 Lpd capacity are with electric backup and 1500 to 5000 Lpd are without electric backup.

Note : The rates are as per rate contract  bearing No. HAREDA/ 2006-2007/ 4059-63 dated 21-12-2006 finalised by special high powered purchase committee (SHPPC) valid upto 20-12-2007

    Solar AIR Heating / STEAM GENERATION 

         Solar Thermal Systems for Air Heating/ Steam Generating Applications

             Under this programme, Solar Flat Plate Collector (FPC) have been found to be very useful specially in agriculture and food industries for air heating.  These industries generally require hot air at low temperature (50-80 Deg.C.) as process heat for drying of various products such as tea leaves, coffee beans and also for processing of fruits, spices, cereals, mushroom, papad, vegetables, fish, sea food etc.  Hot air is also required in industries such as leather, textile, chemicals, rubber, paper, pharmaceuticals etc.

MNES, Govt. of India shall provide 50% of the cost of the system subject to a maximum of Rs.2,500/- per sq. mtr. of collector area for FPC based solar air heating systems/ dryers for non-profit making institutions/ organizations.  35% of the cost of system subject to maximum of Rs.1750/- per sq. mtr. of collector area for FPC based solar air heating systems/ dryers for commercial / industrial organizations (profit making and claiming depreciation). 

                Solar Concentrating System for heating air / generating steam directly or through heating of oil

  Under this programme, Solar Concentrating systems comprising of parabolic dishes known as “Scheffler” dishes have been found to be useful for generating steam to cook food for 100 and 10000 of people in Community Kitchens specially at religious places.

MNES, Govt. of India shall provide 50% of the cost of the system subject to a maximum of Rs.5,000/- per sq. mtr. of dish area for Solar Concentrating Systems for non-profit making institutions/ organizations. 35% of the cost of system subject to maximum of Rs.3500/- per sq. mtr. of dish area for Solar Concentrating Systems for commercial / industrial organizations (profit making and claiming depreciation). 

    Solar Passive Architecture Programme

The need

 Buildings, as they are designed today, contribute to serious energy and environmental problems because of excessive consumption of resources (energy, water & land) by them during both the construction phase and use.  Studies show that residential and commercial sectors in India together account for 25% of the countries total electricity consumption, a major portion of which is used in buildings. Energy Efficient Solar Buildings are the need of hour and solar passive architecture needs to integrated into the planning and design process and all buildings.

 What is Energy Efficient building design ?

  Energy Efficient Solar Building is defined as a building that makes maximum use of Renewable Energy ad resources during construction and operation. An energy efficient solar building:

·                     maximizes use of efficient building materials and construction practices;

·                     optimizes use of onsite sources and sinks by bio-climatic architectural practices;

·                     uses minimum energy to power itself;

·                     uses efficient equipment to meet its lighting, air-conditioning, and other needs;

·                     maximizes use of renewable sources of energy; and

·                     uses efficient waste and water management practices and provides comfortable and hygienic indoor working conditions.

Sustainable buildings re evolved through a design process that looks into all aspects of building and systems planning, design, construction, and operation and critically evaluates the impacts of each design decision on the environment to arrive at viable design solutions to minimize the negative impacts and enhance the positive impacts on the environment.

HAREDA is implementing a programme on promotion of solar passive architectural concepts with
an objective

-To promote energy efficient building designs.

-Building construction with optimum use of solar energy.

-Other forms of ambient energy in energy management.

INCENTIVES :

To demonstrate this concept, the Ministry of Non-Conventional Energy Sources, Govt. of India (MNES/GOI) provides 50% of the cost of DPR subject to the maximum of Rs 2 lacs for its preparation including detailed building and architectural drawings for public/private institutional buildings.

In addition to this, the MNES/GOI provides partial financial assistance limited to 10% of the cost of the building with a maximum of Rs. 50.00 lacs for each project in Government/ Public sector( limited to two projects per State). The cost of any solar system installed in the building is not included in the project cost.

The State Govt. also provides matching financial assistance for preparation of detailed project report and construction of a building designed on solar building design principles .

Govt./Semi Govt. Departments may send their proposals to HAREDA for availing the financial assistance giving the details of the project, project site, strategies of planning and design and specific architectural features along with the estimates cost of the building.
