- Introduction to biomass to energy ÔÇô biofuels, Present status of biomass based energy in India, Biomass Resources, Technologies, Basics of Gasification and types of Gasifiers, Sizing/Selection of Gasifiers, Technology and process overview, Successful Project Examples, Issues and challenges
- Conducting comprehensive training programs for Small Hydro Power development and develop the required operation, maintenance & commissioning skills at all levels such as for engineers, technicians etc.
- Develop smart villages by developing Solar parks in villages, which would not only generate revenue but also develop self-reliant economies including industries at village level bringing urban amenities to rural areas retaining the soul of the village.
- Conducting Training Programs for strengthening Urban Centers infrastructure.
- Decentralized Distributed Generation (DDG) and Micro-grid smart projects (solar, mini & micro hydel etc.) in remote areas & villages to not only make them self-sufficient but also promote the concept of Green Energy etc. and increase local employability as well.
- All Renewable Energy Modules to be equipped with integrated smart grid control to avoid least excursions at the point of connectivity.
- Bringing about complete awareness to personnel in the power sector about MoP initiatives such as DDUGJY, IPDS, UDAY, 24x7 Power to All Schemes etc.
- Programs on DSM & Energy Efficiency may be regularly announced and conducted for maximum awareness. Retailer programs for awareness in energy efficient equipments and Energy Conservation techniques for street lighting including automated switching on-off LEDs, Energy Efficient agriculture pump sets etc. in association with BEE / EESL.
- Awareness Programs on Climate change, carbon credits & Global warming issues.
- Courses on ÔÇ£Regulatory Framework & Commercial AspectsÔÇØ of Indian Power Sector aggressively through Distance learning Mode educating all Utilities personnel at their doorstep through e-learning Modules & Assignments for greater understanding of Regulatory & Commercial concepts like Tariff calculations, MYT Framework, Trading etc. thereby improving the pace & effectiveness of Power sector reforms at large.
- The addition of 175 GW of renewable generation capacity by 2022 would require improving the System Operators skill-sets for planning, operating, maintaining and governing the power systems. NPTI would conduct Capacity building Programs for POSOCO - SLDCs, RLDCs and others associated to manage green energy corridors effectively. Also, all associated functions of Renewable Energy Management Centres (REMC) such as forecasting, Scheduling, balancing Renewable Energy resources and supporting the national grid etc.
- Programs on Power Market Transactions focusing on the Concept of Power Trading, Power Exchange mechanism in India, Availability Based Tariff & Concept of Deviation Settlement Mechanism, Open Access in Power Sector etc.
- The 24x7 Power for All, scheme of the Govt. of India would need intensive capsule courses for capacity building of personnel in the areas of Generation, Transmission & Distribution including various commercial aspects. This is to be taken up with all the State Utilities which have signed MoU with Ministry of Power under UDAY.
- Entering into proper understanding / agreements etc., and interfacing with Power Sector Skill Council (PSSC) to carry on the mission of Skill development training activities and certifying personnel for their appropriate employment in various areas of power sector and other areas as well.
- Conducting Training Programs for State Distribution Utilities on Smart Meters, AMI and associated infrastructure, Peak Load Management, Demand response and Outage Management System.
- Programs on Smart Grid highlighting the Concept, Understanding of Intelligent Power System, Achievements & Challenges. The Program would also focus on the need of Smart Grid in Indian context.
