National Solar Mission –
To promote the development and use of solar energy for power generation making it competitive with fossil fuel based energy option within this programme; there will be a boost for solar power production from 6MW at present to 20000MW by 2022, and also deploying at least 1000 MW of solar thermal power generation.
National Mission for Enhanced Energy Efficiency-
The energy conservation act 2001 provides a legal mandate for the implementation of the energy efficiency measures through the institutional mechanism of the bureau of energy efficiency (BEE) in the Central Government and designated agencies in each state. A number of schemes and programmes have been initiated and it is anticipated that there would result in a saving of 10000 MW by the end of 11th Five Year Plan in 2012. To enhance energy efficiency, four new initiatives will be put in place.
These are:
· A market based mechanism to enhance cost effectiveness of improvements in energy efficiency in enhances cost effectiveness of improvements in energy efficiency in energy –intensive large industries and facilities, through certification of energy savings that could be traded.
· Accelerating the shift to energy efficient appliances in designated sectors through innovative measures to make the products more affordable.
· Creation of mechanisms that would help finance demand side management progeammes in all sectors by capturing future energy savings.
· Developing fiscal instruments to promote energy efficiency.
