Socio-economic Impact of Land Acquisition Act on Tribal House-hold of Jajpur District, Orissa
Abstract: The impact assessment of a newly planned development on socially marginalized sections of people is a rare phenomenon. In the current land acquisition practice for large scale development, the impact assessments carried out are confined to the economic viability, whereas the social aspect is understated. Realisation of such lacunae in land acquisition processes becomes evident only when the people start protesting. In this study, the impact of land acquisition in …

Techno-Economic Analysis of Packed Bed Type Thermal Batteries for Surplus Renewable Energy Storage
Abstract: Low carbon electricity from renewables will form the bed rock of the energy transition necessary for climate change mitigation. However, variable renewable generators suffer from intermittency and variability – there can be large surplus power available at times which cannot be dispatched to the grid. At many times, the practice is to curtail surplus renewable output, which is wasteful and not economic. There are also phases when generation is not …
