Micro-hydro: Power for new Generation

Navtej Kohli assuming that the era will come after few year when the people able to made small amount of power for its own use . Solar energy is the best means which make everybody to generate electricity for small use. Everybody knows about hydroelectricity power. But it seems very costly a person to generate power using water . But MicroHydro make it possible to generate energy for small use. Also the costing, maintenance also very low for making a MicroHydro plant .

Basically the term Microhydro related to the installation of hydroelectric power which can able to produce upto 100KW. The condition which is required for this plant is water rich area such as Remote Area Power Supply (RAPS). Some countries like Solomon Islands also generating and supplying small amount of power like 50kw with Microhydro.
It can be made with pelton wheel for high head and low flow water supply, for this installation just like small dammed pool just in the top of the waterfall which have several hundred feet of pipe leading to a small generator housing.
While making plan for installing low-headed MicroHydro plant its maintenance and mechanism are most important thing. Because low-headed system moves large amount of water and might be possible to be face encounter of surface debris. That’s why Banki turbine, a pressurized self-cleaning cross flow waterwheel, is often preferred for low-head microhydro power systems. Though less efficient, its simpler structure is less expensive than other low-head turbines of the same capacity. Since the water flows in, then out of it, it cleans itself and is less prone to jam with debris.
Most of the person considered Microhydro as complement photovoltaic solar energy systems because in many areas flow of the water rises in the winter season when the power of the sun are goes down.
Frequency stability
Many theories are behind what should be best frequency should be have for a ideal Microhydro system, but in the real scenario frequency of alternating current generated needs to match the local standard utility frequency. Usually controller valves the water supply to generate a constant frequency for motor and clocks. While taking normal controller under consideration, it is small programmable logic controller with custom program which use deadband to minimize valve motion such that valve wears out as slowly as possible, during water conservation.
A grid-linked system slaves its generator to the grid by measuring current, to assure that the power is always output, so the grid never drives the turbine. The usual scheme is to measure voltage across a shunt resistor on one of the phases. The external utility's grid controller provides precision frequency controls.
An independent system usually governs its long-term frequency from an external time standard. The hydropower's AC time may vary by several seconds per hour, but over many days, it doesn't vary at all. Traditionally a caretaker would compare a simple AC clock driven by the hydropower system to a shortwave clock broadcast and adjust the mechanical governor on the hydropower system until the AC clock read the same as the broadcast for a few minutes. Over time, the result would be good. With a modern PLC-based system, the caretaker can just set the PLC's clock periodically from a radio clock, say once per week. Some more-professional systems automatically set the controller's clock from a radio clock.



MicroHydro work Phenomenon

Rivers water are passed through settling basin to remove sediment which might be harmful for the turbine. After that water is make to flow into the Forebay Tank where it is directed downhill through a pipe called a penstock . After reaching at the bottom water drives specially made turbine to produce electricity.
Moreover Navtej Kohli appreciating MicroHydro system and want to make popular . Not only government but also private sector have to come up with new techniques for installing MicroHydro system which be low cost and low maintenance system.

Navtej Kohli redefining energy conservation!

ARE CURRENT ENERGY CONSERVATION MEASURES SUFFICIENT? Finds out Navtej Kohli.

“Alternative energy”, “recycling”, and “conservation” are terms that have become the buzzwords for the 21st century environmentalists. Although these solutions have long been seen as only hope to save our planet from the perils of global warming or other subsequent disasters, the sad news is – this isn’t really working!!

Reason??
The too much of management involved.

Let’s take recycling as a case in point. Did you ever imagine how many hours does it take to separate plastic, glass, aluminum and cardboard? Countries like Sweden and San Francisco where recycling is mandatory, people are either fined or jailed by the state for improperly sorting their recyclables. But despite of such strict laws in place, these superficial ‘buzzwords’ fails to fix the environment related problems.

Now imagine driving to a stinky receptacle, where people dump week-old pizza box into the cardboard bin or smashed can of beer into the glass container. Nightmarish…isn’t it? However, things would have been not as bad if people were not as careless as they are.

Recycling is not an easy call anymore. Given the large amount of money and government involved with recycling programs, it seems all the more useless to reprocess. And that’s not all! There is an additional set of costs involved in purchasing recycling trucks, hiring drivers for them, their maintenance and other petty expenses. Oh! And did I forget to mention the pollution caused by those ‘additional’ recycling trucks?

Another of those previously significant GREEN terms is Conservation. A word used or rather overused to alarm people that our planet is running out of natural resources. While being miserly with energy resources can be one solution to the problem, yet that’s not all we can do about it.

We have been devising ways to save energy since 1970, turning almost every stone to stay energy-rich. The researches on alternate energy, energy saving equipments proves that. But today, as we step into 21st century, this obsolete approach needs to be reworked upon. Our ever expanding energy needs demands an unconventional approach towards energy conservation. Things are required to be seen in a wider perspective now. The challenge is to discover an alternative that ensures boundless flow of energy without compromising on our standard of living. Nuclear power can be quoted as a perfect example here.

Navtej Kohli on Geothermal Energy

Navtej Kohli President and CEO of Granox Explorations has given an insinuation of Granox's policy transformation from Exploration to Sustainable Energy productions.

In a seminar on Geothermal Energy Generation at Kent, he said that he has a vision for Granox to become world's largest producer of geothermal energy, a renewable resource that captures the natural power of steam from the earth to generate electricity while producing almost no greenhouse emissions.

Mr. Navtej Kohli said. "The only resource unavailable in Kent is geothermal energy. All other technologies and resources are available and overall renewable energy technologies are in a period of rapid global growth and cost reduction. For similar development in Kent, as seen across Europe and the world, there is an initial need for public demonstration and acceptance." He added.

Once the first successful demonstrations of the more innovative technology have been delivered in Kent there is an opportunity to replicate a greater number of more commercial installations in the medium term.

Navtej Kohli Brings a Successful Career for Yet Another Individual

Navtej Kohli adds another talented individual to his team.

When you launch a bold business venture that can redefine the way the planet finds its energy, you want a man like Guillermo Hurtado on your team. That’s because he’s got expertise on an international level with open-cut and underground coal resource development, mining and processing operations, and project management as well as coal utilization and marketing coal to power generators and steel mills.

So it was no surprise to him that a man like Navtej Kohli came looking for him last fall to head the search for new energy sources in the vast untapped oil fields of Russia. The real surprise, though, came when he arrived in his new workplace and realized just how different the climate was.

“I should have maybe brought an extra couple of coats with me, but otherwise I’m glad to be here!” says Hurtado, laughing. “I imagine I’ll have a few other cultural differences to deal with, but I’m looking forward to the challenge.”

It’s that kind of can-do spirit and forward-thinking attitude that Navtej Kohli hopes to bring to the world at large. In an age when oil is edging up to $100 a barrel and volatile Arab nations threaten to drive them even higher, it’s important to know that a company is out in front seeking to alleviate the problems for everyone by finding fresh supplies.

You can count on Granox Ltd. – just the same way that Navtej Kohli knows that he can count on employees like Guillermo Hurtado.
