India Solar water heating systems save electricity
Haryana has installed Solar Water Heating Systems (SWHS) of about 13 lakh litres per day capacity in the state resulting in the peak load saving of 13 MW and reduction of Carbon Dioxide emission by 19,500 tonnes thus reducing the global warming and climate change. This was disclosed by Director of Haryana Renewable Energy Development Agency (HAREDA) Sumita Mishra while speaking in the Half-Day Workshop-cum-Exhibition on Promoting of Solar Water Heating Systems for hospitals, hotels, nursing homes and educational institutions held at HSIIDC auditorium here today. She informed that during the year 2008-09, Haryana had witnessed the highest ever installation of Solar Water Heating Systems (SWHS) of over two lakh litre capacity thereby reducing the load on the grid by about 2 MW and reduction in emission of 3038 tonnes of Carbon Dioxide. She said enough time of more than four years had been given for voluntary adoption of solar heating systems. The state government had made a regulation, making it mandatory for 500 sq yards and above plots to have Solar systems and it would be ensured that the regulation is complied with. Heavy penalties would be imposed on the violators. Ms Misra said HAREDA wants to make Gurgaon, a Solar City so the installation of SWHS should take an exponential leap. She said SWHS is the only simplest ecologically friendly solution to global warming and climate change. This is a tried and tested technology which hotels, dhabas, hospitals, shopping malls, Multiplexes, industries, educational institutions, where hot water is a perpetual requirement throughout the year, should adopt. ''When we can buy an air conditioner or a car costing from Rs 3 lakh to Rs 1 crore for our comfort then why cant we install SWHS by spending Rs 40,000'', she added. -- (UNI) -- 21DR15.xml
