2 Education Park A Mission for Providing High Quality, Affordable Education & Training in Rural India म णभ रतम आथकपस स गमउचतरयश औरशणद न करन क लएएकमशन

3 India s Energy Status Education Park,

4 India is Young July 2011-Population =1189 million of which 0-14 years: 29.7% years: 64.9% 65 years and over: 5.5% Dependency ratio of 0.6; Average Age: India-29; China-37; Japan-48: India will have youngest working age population in world

5 India needs more energy India population is growing with 1.4% Growing economy will have growing demands of energy

6 Human Development Index of India HDI is indication of health, education and income Education Park,

7 Primary Commerical Energy Consumption Primary commercial energy consumption from various sources (does not include use of biomass for cooking) Coal is a major fuel in India s energy scenario, renewable energy and nuclear energy is small share of pie Source: Petronet LNG Ltd- Corporate Profile Presentation

8 Domestic Production and Consumption of crude oil Oil production MBPD Product consum Billion cubic feet (Gas) Production Consumption Source : CASEY RESEARCH.com, India Imports about 85% of crude oil consumption

9 Primary Energy Used for Cooking 85 million households spend 30 billion hours annually in fuel wood gathering Economic cost of biomass fuel was estimated to be Rs.299 billion using a wage rate of Rs.60 per day

10 India s fossil fuel resources Fuel Proved Reserves Domestic Production Actual consumption Reserves/Consumption (years of fuel remaining) Coal (Million Tonnes) 250, Oil (Million Tonnes) Natural Gas Billion m We do not have good fossil fuel resource

11 Indian Electricity Scenario MW %age Total Thermal Coal 104, Gas 17, Oil 1, Hydro (Renewable) 38, Nuclear 4, RES** (MNRE) 20, Total 1,87, In order to supply average electricity (world average) we should have 800,000 MW capacity, and 4000,000 MW capacity to meet developed countries energy consumption Source: Ministry of Power, GoI, as on March 2012

12 Can we supply electricity to all? India just can not build more power plant, even if we have lot of money Coal resources are there, but not best suitable, we import 25% coal We import 85% of oil consumption We are trying to buy nuclear fuel from outside, our plants runs to 40% of their capacity Our hydro power plants runs to only 70% of their capacity So what else? Education Park,

13 About Education Park Education Park 13

14 Why another NGO? Small support through NGOs does not bring a quantum change in a child s life the bottom-line is, child if poor remains poor Simple learning to read and write does not provide him plate-form to take off (for higher education, good job etc.) I learned this after 10 years of my experience in starting and running NGOs, for instance Rose- Rose an Organization for Supporting Education (ROSE), 2001 NEF- New Energy Foundation, 2006 Learning: There is little possibility that small effort bring change to anybody s life quality and quantity in education and training is required 14

15 Affordable education & training World economies are increasingly knowledge based Skilled manpower plays key role in their own and nation s development Still about 60% population lives in rural area Government education does not provide quality & Private education is expensive A child born poor in India is guaranteed to remain poor for life Providing affordable quality education and training is important for betterment of disadvantaged Cost of education can be kept low if the organization is not for profit Education Park is a non-profit organization Chetan S Solanki Education Park,

16 Therefore Education Park.. Though, the basic education of any level (basic reading, writing, maths, etc.) is good, it is not good enough to change ones life Life changing education, which enables individuals to live better life, is required. Education Park is non-government, non-profit organization.
