About the workshop Sustainable energy resources such as sunlight, wind, tides, waves, geothermal heat, wind, biomass, biofuels, hydrogen derived from natural forms are replenished continuously and are of greater interest in 21 st century to minimize the utilization of fossil fuels. According to Energy Policy Network report released in 2014, 19% of the energy consumption and 22 % of electricity is generated using sustainable resources. Energy Policy Network provides international leadership by facilitating exchange of knowledge, policy formulation, collaboration and support towards development and utilization of sustainable energy resources through multi-stakeholder participation. India. has taken lead and is the first nation in the world to formulate and establish policy towards utilizing non-conventional energy resources. According to 2010 report, India generates 9.9 GW of electricity from sustainable energy resources, of which wind energy contributes to 68.9% and 4.59% from solar photovoltaic energy. India has great potential to accelerate the use of its endowed sustainable resources to power its growing economy with a secure and affordable energy supply. Deliberations were made on harnessing the potential of sustainable resources and possible convergence of emerging technologies for their best possible utility in energy management. Page 2 of 13

6 Prof. K. J. Rao, Indian Institute of Science, Bangalore Prof. R. R. Rao delivered lecture on Biodiversity in India with special reference to Bioenergy plants. In his lecture Prof. Rao emphasized that the potential utilization of biomass available in India (540 million tonnes/year) could generate more than 16,000 MW of grid quality power. Several bioresources such as wood, biogas are conventional methods of power generation. Floristic diversity in India also includes several hydrocarbon plants which yield a potential source of petroleum-like products. Aquatic biomass of wetlands are also promising resource for second generation biofuels. Diatoms are the most productive source to generate biodiesel and petroleum based liquid fuels. Prof. R. R. Rao, INSA Honorary Scientist, Bangalore Page 6 of 13

7 Prof. K. N. Ganeshaiah, delivered a lecture on water resources and civilization. Prof. Ganeshaiah provided an exhaustive review on the connectivity between the water resources to evolution of civilizations across the world. The unplanned usage of water resources and overexploitation of water can create crisis in future. The use of water as renewable resources for power generation was also stressed. Prof. K. N. Ganeshaiah, Department of Forestry and Environmental Sciences, UAS GKVK Bangalore Prof. A H Rajasab, Hon ble Vice Chancellor, Tumkur University delivered a lecture on Biofuelssource of alternative renewable energy in the last session on 18 th August In his lecture Prof. Rajasab provided information related to biofuels as a potential means to stimulate rural development and resource for power generation.

9 Prof. T V Ramachandra delivered a lecture on exploration of sustainable sources of energy. In which Prof. Ramachandra emphasized on the role of energy in the development of a region. Harvesting energy depends on the availability of resources apart from the economic viability with technical feasibility of meeting the demand. The energy requirement of India is mainly supplied by coal. Renewable energy resources potential is derived from high resolution satellite derived data which reveals that 5KWh/m2/day of annual average global isolation, with scope for large scale exploitation of renewable energy especially solar potential. In this regard, Prof. Ramachandra s group has developed the gasoline secreting diatom solar panels to produce gasoline from diatoms sustainably. Till now biofuel generation by using bioresources such as crushing them to collect the lipids and then filtering to extract oil and use as biofuel. Prof. Ramachandra s group has developed the use of some diatoms which secrete more lipid content when subjected to unfavourable environment or culture conditions such as nutrient starvation or extreme temperature. Diatoms will double their biomass with an hour rapidly and is also responsible for 25% of global carbon dioxide fixation. Diatoms can be cultivated for oil extraction, then can automatically reabsorb carbon dioxide in the process. Dr. Ramachandra had proposed that cells in diatoms can be manipulated to actively secrete oils. Unlike ordinary solar panels that produce electricity, diatom solar panels would produce oil for us. Prof. T. V. Ramachandra, Centre for Ecological Sciences, Indian Institute of Science, Bangalore Dr. Satish Patil from IISc, Bangalore delivered a lecuture on conjugated polymer based solar cells. In his lecture, Prof. Satish Patil stressed on the importance of solar energy as an clean energy resource which need to be utilized for full potential. Prof. Patil provided an overview on the development of solar cells. First generation solar cells was based on single crystalline silica in 1943 while second generation solar cells have thin film technology. The cost of thin film technology and inefficient conversion of energy inhibits its utilization to full extent. Recent development focus on potential use of renewable low-cost solar cell technology. For which Page 9 of 13

10 conjugated polymers which have low band gap can be used as an alternative to thin fill silicon based solar cells. Dr. Patil highlighted the current status of organic solar cells for energy conversion process. Prof. Satish Patil, Solid State and Structural Chemistry Unit, Indian Institute of Science, Bangalore Prof. A K Shukla delivered a lecture on: Renaissance in battery development. Prof. A K Shukla provided an overview on the historical development of batteries beginning from Alessandro Voltas invention of first useful battery in 1800 to today s lithium batteries and beyond.
