Initially, about 1250 remote unelectrified forest villages, which could not be electrified through the conventional power, were required to be electrified through NCE. Chhattisgarh has about 44 % of forest area. Ø Electrification of un-electrified villages for lighting purpose along with water pumping for drinking water & commercial purpose also Ø Social, educational & economical upliftment of consumers Ø Application of environmental friendly SPV technology for electrification In the year 1992 the very first SPV power plant was installed in the state at village Lamni, Distt. Bilaspur. This plant is still working successfully since then. Particularly after formation of CREDA more than 632 villages are electrified by SPV. All of these villages are remote, tribal and some of them are under naxal prone area. The electrification is done in two manners. In the big villages centralised SPV Power plants are installed and from these power plants power is transmitted to individual houses. Several street lights are also installed to illuminate streets and prominent points like hand pumps etc. In the small villages the electrification is done with the help of SPV home lighting and street lighting systems. In these entire villages village level committees are formed to take care of primary operation and maintenance. The total planning of O & M of the project is prepared in such a way to ensure optimum functionality of the systems to support. For operation and maintenance of the systems cluster technicians are appointed to monitor and maintain and to support them technical staff of CREDA also monitors the systems regularly. Every beneficiary contributes in the form of connection tariff in this regard just to support the mechanism for Operational and maintenance For Maintenance of SPVPP, Village Energy Committees (VEC) have been formed in every village. Every beneficiary family is paying Rs.05 per month to VEC for maintenance of the system. A local person has been trained to operate the system. He is being paid Rs.400-600 per month for this job. One mechanic for looking after systems of 5-6 villages has also been appointed by VEC’s.
Electrification of Primary Health Centers Various instruments like incubators refrigerators, X-ray and ECG machines require electricity. SPV electrification can make it possible in un-electrified health centers. So far, 42 health centers have been electrified in the State through SPV systems. SPV Street Lighting At Raipur, SPV Street Lights have been installed at places like Vidhan Sabha, Gandhi Udyan, Jawahar Udyan, Raj Bhawan, CM House, Speaker House, Chhattisgarh Officer’s Club etc for demonstration. Similarly SPV street lights have been installed in the Energy-Park developed by CREDA. Community SPV Systems n un-electrified villages, through SPV electrification, community life can be extended by 4-5 hours during which important social activities such as education, health etc. can be carried out. Over 152 tribal hostels have also been electrified SPV Electrification of Forest Rest Houses and Tourism centres Forest rest houses in remote areas like wild life sanctuaries at Bar-Navapara, Udanti and Tourenga have been illuminated through SPV Systems. Bar-Navapara Tourism Cottages have also been electrified through SPV systems. Kailash Gufa in Distt. Surguja & Bhoremdeo in Distt. Kabirdham are some of the tourist places electrified through Solar systems Application of SPV for Tele-communication Wireless in Local Loop (WLL) is required for Tele-communication in limited sphere. Normally, WLL is used in areas where other systems of telecommunication can not be provided. In the un-electrified areas where the WLL is to be provided, the need of electricity can be fulfilled through SPV system. The WLL at village Sarora Dadar, Distt. Kabirdham is running through SPV system. The cost of such electrification as compared to the conventional electrification is quite less. Provision of SPV has eliminated the cost of telephone cables and transmission lines.
Electrification of Naxal affected Police Stations ------- nos of police stations in the naxal prone areas have been electrified through SPV. Electrification of Tribal hostels OTHER APPLICATION OF SOLAR PHOOTOVOLTAIC SYSTEM Television and radio receivers (mobile and stationary) Radio transmitters and transponders (mobile and stationary) Weather and earthquake monitoring stations Irrigation and other pump motors Lights, Refrigerators, fans and Desert Coolers Electronic (galvanic) corrosion protection of metal structures (bridges, towers, etc) Electronic and optical beacons and warning devices Rechargeable battery chargers for military devices and recreational vehicles and boats Emergency, surveillance and security systems Hydrolysis (electrolysis of water, separating water into hydrogen and oxygen gas, and others) Electro-chemical processes Solar Water Pump The main objective of the SPV water pumping scheme to facilitate power for pumping particularly in un-electrified villages. Through these SPV pumps not only provided drinking water supply moreover the irrigation for small vegetable fields are also done in the state. The movement was started from village Jabarra of Dist. Dhamtari where a SVP pump was installed fro drinking water supply for the village of 73 families most of them are of Komar tribe (a special primitive tribe). From the subsidy of MNRE and with the financial support from State Govt. many of such pumps were installed particularly for drinking water supply and irrigation through forest development committees last year. A total of 78 SPV water pumping system has been installed so far by CREDA. Most of the pumping system installed during the year are of 1800 watt PV array capacity of operate a DC motor pumps set and are owned by Forest committees. All these SPV pumps are working satisfactorily. For the year 2006-07 CREDA has set up a target of installation of 100 SPV pumps. Solar Water Heating System The Ministry of Non-conventional Energy Sources programmer of soft loans and other incentive and the emphasis on quality standards has created favorable environment and a significant infrastructure for the manufacture, installation, financing and servicing of solar water heating systems. The low pay back period for urban households is an added attraction. So far CREDA have installed solar water heating system of capacity 4.42 lakhs Liter per day

In Chhattisgarh PAHAL, Raipur based non Govt. organization (NGO) was awarded the work of preparation / cooking food for 50,000 school children under mid-day scheme of Central / State Government. Food is being distributed among 50,000 school students within municipal limit of Raipur city. The organization where using 28 to 30 LPG/cylinder of capacity 19.5 Kg. cooking of food through steam vessel cooking system. CREDA has taken initiative to introduce use of Solar Water Heating System for this activity. Rashmi Industries, Bangalore has installed water heating system in Feb. 2006 of capacity 5,500 LPD, @ temperature 80 degrees C of thermo-siphon process. The whole system comprises of 2 individual system of capacity 5000 LPD and 500 LPD. The system of capacity 5000 LPD is used for cooking of meals and second system of capacity 500 LPD is fed to the boiler. Everyday there is a saving of 4 to 5 commercial cylinder of costing Rs. 3200/- per day the monthly saving is approx. Rs. 80,000/-. The time saved for cooking of meals approx. 5-6 hours. Biomass Gasification In the state of Chhattishgarh, the Government announced its energy policy by extending several benefits/incentives to encourage the investment in non- conventional areas. CREDA , the nodal agency of MNRE is empowered to consider and approve the projects coming in the state for generation of power using non- conventional methodology. Chhattishgarh is one of the main rice producing state in India. Processing of paddy in modern rice mills produces approximately 25 % rice husk. The high silica content makes husk an important biomass fuel compared to any other material.
If 50% of total waste available for power generation, potential of power generation in State is about 575 MW More then 98 MW power is now being generated in the state of Chhattishgarh from Biomass, which is largest in India. CREDA issued final clearance for setting up 37 biogas based power project of total capacity 455.19 MW out of which 11 Biomass power projects of total capacity 97.99 MW are commissioning and 26 biomass of total capacity 357.20 MW power projects are under implementation stage and expected to commissioned by end of year 2007.
