20. Wind power started years back and has been popular in coastal areas and south. The main limitation is location – there are vast areas where wind turbines cannot work.
Mini hydro, similarly is limited location, even more than wind.
Bio mass & waste co-generation have scale problems.
New technologies are not yet commercialized
Solar photovoltaic is possible almost in the entire country, but works only in daylight hours.

21. Areas RE Development
Grid interactive Renewable Energy Generation systems
Renewable Energy for Urban, Industrial and Commercial applications
Renewable Energy for Rural applications, Irrigation, enterprises, cooking, lighting etc.
Research, Design and Development in new Renewable energy generation and applications

23. Future growth -RE in India
Reduced Demand Supply Gap
Large renewable energy potential
Availability of New forms of capital
Private equity
Clean Development Mechanism (CDM)
Increasing state level initiatives – States such as Punjab, Haryana, AP taking the lead in development of RE projects
Funding for Institutions
Funding for Start up
Funding for Incubation
