SURAKSHA-2013 (DEFENCE EXPO)
"SURAKSHA-2013" (Defence expo-2013)....Kerala's 1st defence expo , 2013May17-19 Marine Drive Kochi..Organised:- jointly by the Swadeshi Science Movement and Defence Research & Development Organisation (DRDO).
A mass rally was flagged off o...n Sunday as part of ‘Suraksha 2013’, organised jointly by the Swadeshi Science Movement and Defence Research & Development Organisation (DRDO).
The exhibition, the first defence expo to be held in the state, will commence on May 17.
Critic M K Sanu flagged off the rally at Gandhi Square here. Nearly 150 persons took part in the event which concluded at the Helipad at Marine Drive. Naval Physical and Oceanographic Laboratory (NPOL) director S Anantha Narayan led the rally. Swadeshi Science Movement president V P N Nampoori was also present. on the occasion.
“The government has been carrying out sufficient research in the field of defence to equip our soldiers with the best technology. The research activities are bearing fruit.
“However, it is necessary to bring the message of these endeavours to the masses. Sufficient awareness should be created so as to encourage youngsters to join the research field,” Sanu said.
The three-day ‘Suraksha 2013’ event will be attended by industrial leaders and private entrepreneurs along with members of the scientific community.
Technologies from the Defence Research & Development Organisation’s premier laboratories including the NPOL, Kochi, and the Defence Food Research Laboratory (DFRL), Mysore, will be exhibited. Defence industries will also showcase their product range and might at the event. Apart from being a defence expo, ‘Suraksha-2013’ will deal with different aspects of national security including technological innovations made for the armed forces, officials said. Officials added that it also includes an exhibition and seminar on defence technology.

Technician Training Program on Solar Photovoltaic
Introduction
The Government of Kerala in the year 1988 established Centre for Development of
Imaging Technology (C-DIT) with a vision to ensure advancement of research,
development and training in imaging technology with an implied role in socially
relevant science & development communication.
Background
The Government of Kerala has started the utilisation of renewable energy sources
through structured approach. It is clear that the utilisation of solar energy can play a
vital role to manage the crisis of energy in the state. The mission of our state is to
increase the installed capacity of the solar sector in the state to 500 MW by 2017
and 1500 MW by 2030. This mission generates large direct and indirect employment
opportunities in the areas of solar and allied industries. In order to enable the
deployment of solar PV systems in the state, there is a need for large number of
trained people in the solar PV area. Creation of skilled and semi-skilled man power
resources for installation and maintenance of the solar systems can be done through
the promotion of technical and other related training. The trained manpower is
required at various levels. This program aims at training people who install or
planning to install solar PV systems in future.
Who May Benefit
The course would benefit anybody who wants to work with solar PV system,
particularly technician, trainers and engineers (or any PV system practitioner) who is
working on solar PV system for design, installation and maintenance of solar PV
systems of all types. The training programme would also be an excellent opportunity
to learn several aspects of Solar PV technology with hands on experience in
designing and assembling solar PV systems.
Course Content
The following topics will be covered in the course:
Basics of electricity and related concepts
Basics of energy, its units, quantities of energy
Concepts of solar
cells
Interconnection of solar cells in PV modules
Design of PV array
Fundamentals of batteries
Interconnection of
batteries (series and parallel connections)
Electronics that are used in PV systems
Design of standalone solar PV system
Eligibility
Individuals having ITI or diploma in the relevant field or individuals having
electrical/electronic background can attend the training program.

SOLAR TRAINING
Power is vital for the development and sustenance of modern economy to eradicate
poverty. The National Action plan on climate change identifies measures that promote our
development objectives. Jawaharlal Nehru National Solar Mission is one of the eight
National missions which comprises India’s National Action Plan on Climate Change. The
mission is to be implemented in three stages leading to an installed capacity of 20,000
MW of grid power and 2000 MW of off- grid solar applications and 20 million sq.m. solar
thermal collector area and solar lighting for 20 million households by the end of the 13th
five year plan in 2022.
Kerala has published a draft solar policy on February 27th 2013. This makes it the ninth
Indian state to release a solar specific policy document. Under the draft policy, Kerala has
set itself a target of an installed capacity of 500 MW by 2017 and 1,500 MW by 2030.
Earlier, the state had initiated a 10,000 rooftop solar power programme. Kerala's new
policy is unique in its focus largely on distributed power generation. Unlike the off-grid
capital subsidy scheme under the NSM, the state will incentivize distributed solar through
FiTs. Net-metering and a focus on grid interaction protocols will help tackle the grid
stability issues (especially community grids that would be integrated with the state's 'no
load-shedding'-campaign). This policy is a first step in the right direction and is expected
to lead a significant development in India towards the implementation of net-metering and
community grids. If properly implemented, this holds the potential to unlock the immense
distributed generation potential of India. Solar Procurement Obligations (SPOs) will be
mandated for commercial consumers with a connected load of more than 20 kVA and LT
industrial consumers with more than 50 kVA. Also, SPOs will be applicable to all HT & EHT
consumers. All HT and EHT consumers have to procure 3% of their power from solar until
March 2014 and 6% from April 2014 onwards. In future, the SPO requirement will also be
applicable for high consuming domestic customers, i.e., those with more than 500 kWh
per month. In the last quarter (January to March 2013) 226.5 MW of solar PV capacity has
been added in India. Plant costs for solar projects have fallen by 58% in the last three
years. Solar power is already cheaper than grid power for commercial consumers in
Maharashtra, Delhi and Kerala even without any subsidy. In 2016, industrial consumers in
Maharashtra, Delhi, Kerala, Andhra Pradesh, Tamil Nadu, Gujarat and Karnataka will
achieve unsubsidized grid parity.
The severe conventional power crisis has brought the focus on decentralised solar pv
system. Solar PV is gaining importance in India and across the world. Hence it is felt
necessary to build a common platform to create ample opportunities for business,
education and policy making. Society of Energy Engineers and Managers(SEEM) and
KITCO Ltd, with an objective of bringing potential power users, professionals,
businesses, investors and academicians under one roof to facilitate better understanding
and exchange of ideas, are jointly organising a one day “National Training Programme on
Roof Top Solar PV”.
All are invited to take part.
