According to a recent report by Oxford Economics, 17 of the world's 20 fastest growing cities are in India. At the same time, the city of Surat in India is at the top of the list of 10 fastest growing cities in the world between 2019 and 2035. The list also includes Hyderabad, Nagpur, Tripura, Rajkot, Tiruchirappalli, Chennai and Vijayawada. According to the 2011 census, 31% was the overall urbanisation rate in Republic of India. It is projected to increase rapidly to 60 per cent by 2050. Considering the proportion of urban population in India, the number of urban dwellers in 2014 was 41 crore. By 2050, this number is expected to increase to 81.40 crore. Many of these newcomers to the cities are, in fact, settling in relatively underdeveloped areas. But for many of the things we need to do to improve our quality of life, the demand for energy from everyone is constantly increasing.
Especially for indoor lighting, cooking, various types of home appliances, various appliances or systems that require heat generation, air conditioning system, vehicles, the need for energy, modern form of fuel also increases and so does the demand. In addition, the faster these cities in India grow and develop, the greater the number of residential and commercial settlements in these cities. Against this backdrop, given India's projected energy needs and demand by 2047, India will need about 1,500 tonnes of fuel to achieve its goal of energy security.
Cities and energy use
Gross domestic product is also expected to grow among India's fastest growing cities, and it will be important to have an uninterrupted supply of energy. Globally, 70 percent of the world's energy is used in cities. At the same time, cities account for 40 to 50 percent of the world's greenhouse gas emissions. This problem posed by increasing urbanization is a major challenge facing all countries.
It is incumbent on every country to address such issues related to climate change caused by the use of energy. India still has a long way to go in terms of its policies. In a sense, India has a great opportunity to formulate the right policy for the future of the region. Investments should be made to build the right system or network to meet the energy needs of the entire urban system, including residential areas, commercial buildings, transportation, and public places. Such an investment could forever benefit the Indian economy.
Half of the energy used in any building around the world is used for air conditioning systems, heating systems, and water heating systems.
When an investment is actually made for any project, the technology used for that project and the infrastructure built for that project have to be kept in the same form for some time. The binding period for such use cannot be easily changed. This is because the cost of building a new type of infrastructure can be very high.
That is why we will not miss the opportunity to provide flexible energy supply services that enable efficient use of energy. What kind of energy system we are going to build in the cities of India today will determine the direction of city travel in the next few decades, as well as how much and what kind of stress can be put on natural resources like water, air and atmosphere.
District level / local energy system
District level / local energy system i.e. DES. (District Energy System) is a modern system of energy management. District level / local energy system should be adopted if energy needs and demands in cities are to be properly managed. D.E.S. Various technologies are used in the system to connect electricity generation and supply. This system is useful for heat generating systems, air conditioning and air conditioning systems as well as water heating systems for domestic use. While planning and managing cities, D.E.S. Arrangements can also be made.
This type of multidimensional decentralized DES can be used. The system has already benefited many cities around the world. The adoption of this system will provide affordable energy to many cities, reduce dependence on energy imports - fossil fuels, develop the local economy and at the same time promote a green economy, increase air quality, reduce carbon emissions and renew while using a variety of energy sources. It has helped in achieving the goal of maximizing the use of energy. In fact, if we use the DES system, it is possible to reduce carbon emissions by about 58% by 2050. It could also help limit global warming to two to three degrees Celsius. In addition, D.E.S.
Many cities around the world have DES. The system has been recognized as a proper method of energy management, and its adoption has also begun. D.E.S. District hinting projects built using the system meet about 12 percent of Europe's total energy needs for heating systems, compared to about 30 percent in China. D.E.S. Using the same system, a 16 gigawatt district cooling system has been set up in the United States for air conditioning. This is followed by 10 gigawatts in the UAE and 4 gigawatts in Japan. It is estimated that the use of this system will meet 30 per cent of the total energy requirement for air conditioning in the Gulf countries by 2030.
DES in India Arrangement
India is currently in the third phase of urbanization. At this stage, in 2016, India has adopted a new urban policy. In order to incorporate the important issues of renewable energy and capacity of cities in this policy, it is more important to build a network of modern district energy / district / local / regional energy systems. D.E.S. The United Nations Environment Program, which is working to expand the system, has confirmed that क्षमता 600 million worth of energy projects could be implemented in five Indian cities. Apart from this, tests of district cooling system have also been conducted in Bhopal, Bhubaneswar, Coimbatore, Pune, Rajkot and Thane. These tests result in DES. It may be possible to understand what types of difficulties or challenges may be encountered in the implementation of the system.
The Global Environment Facility (GEF) has partnered with Energy Efficient Services Limited (EESL) to raise ४५ 454 million to create a global market for energy efficiency. The loan from the Asian Development Bank (ADB) is २०० 200 million. The Energy Efficiency Revolving Fund (EERF) has also come up with an innovative proposal. Under this, ERF will invest in successful technology in cities of any country and try to make this technology available across the country. The process will save the investment funds,
Many people in the public sector will be directly involved in the process of creating such a business model. So it can definitely take a while for a certain business model to develop. Of course, this is the kind of DES that can be technically and financially viable. In order to formulate a business model of the system, there should be coordination between the Central Government, State Governments and local self-government bodies in the cities to formulate a strategic framework.
DES is practiced almost everywhere in the world. The projects are government-owned, and run by the government itself. However, options such as private-public partnerships can be used to attract more investment in the sector. In a country like India, D.E.S. If the system is to benefit the energy supply sector and reduce the burden of energy consumption, there will be a need for public-private partnerships in formulating business models.
India's first D.E.S. The system was set up in the newly established Gujarat International Financial Tech City (GIFT) in Gujarat. With a total construction area of 62 million square feet, it was estimated that each building would require about 270,000 tons of air-conditioning, and at least 240 megawatts of energy. But there D.E.S. By setting up the system, a study was also done on the consequences if it is adopted. This study showed that DES. If the system is adopted, the need for air conditioning system can be reduced to 1 lakh 80 thousand tons, moreover, the energy requirement for this can be reduced to only 135 MW. The important thing is to have low operating and maintenance costs in this system,
Expansion of district level / local energy system in India
In the process of urban development in India, it is necessary to determine the socio-economic and environmental goals and objectives. However, in order to set these goals, it is equally important for the cities here to have a holistic view and study of the current energy consumption and future energy needs.
Only by doing this type of study will you come up with potential energy technology options that can be useful in meeting your objectives. In particular, we will be able to understand the impact of technology on air quality and carbon emissions, speed of electricity flow, dependence on fossil fuels, integration into renewable energy, affordable energy supply. In this regard, D.E.S. Examples from around the world show that adoption is the most cost-effective solution in terms of cost planning. In fact, any city needs a DES to meet the needs of its city. You can decide your energy policy by planning the system as you wish. In a sense, you will definitely benefit from DES. It can also set independent goals and objectives for the system.
From this type of study, you can learn about DES. An economically viable location in the city can also be identified for setting up the system. For example, in a city where energy demand for heat generation and air conditioning systems are in high demand, we can build this system in an industrial area. In such areas, D.E.S. Arrangements can be made.
Once such an experimental system is successful, funding can be raised for setting up such new projects on the same basis. Importantly, such success also helps boost the confidence of private investors.
In addition, the design of such a project has always been a guide in determining the institutional framework, as well as increasing the capacity of the public sector at the national to city level. I.e. D.E.S. The system is definitely new to India, and that is why it needs to train a large number of available manpower if it is to function properly.
Given the contradictions in the current system of governance of the Central and State Governments of India, the D.E.S. It can be said that formulating a definite strategy for the system is a challenging task. In such a case, the coordination between the two systems will depend on how the central and state governments plan and manage their financial affairs, as well as how they regulate the country's energy needs. D.E.S. The fact that it is a useful system for energy management is consistently seen in the examples of many cities around the world that have adopted this system. Now, from the teachings given by these examples, it is up to the cities of India to decide whether or not to take measures for their proper use of energy.
