Modern Trends in Electrical Engineering BY: Prof. RanjitKumar Parmar Head of the Dept. Govt. Polytechnic Junagadh at Om Engineering College Junagadh
I am here NOT to give you any thing NEW, but to RETHINK what we know in a NEW and NOVEL way…
What’s an Electrical Engineering in Reality?
Recent research Areas in Electrical Engineering Semiconductor Devices Non-Conventional Energy Resources Analog and digital circuit design RF and Microwave Engineering Optical Networks & communication Information systems and network security Remote sensing and satellite communication Bio Informatics

Major Sons… Smart Grids Large capacity batteries Wireless Power Transfer Higher Efficiency of PV cells Ultra fast Traction
Smart Grid Present Vs Past consumer Present Vs Past Loads Multiple point Power generation Selling of surplus power Complex structure Penetration of Smart devices up to consumer premises
Large Capacity Batteries Present batteries What may the problems posed by renewable resources? Nano wire batteries
Wireless power transfer Shall we see video ?
Bored of Wired charging?
What are IoT devices? Wireless wearable Tech What may be future of Wireless charging? Be ready for new term: WITRICITY

Typical output of a module (~30 cells) is ≈ 15 V, with 1.5 A current
Solar electricity prices are today, around 30 cents/kWh, but still 2-5 times average Residential electricity tariffs RENEWABLE ENERGY COST TRENDS
In terms of overall installed PV capacity, India comes fourth after Japan, Germany and U.S. (With Installed capacity of 110 MW) In the area of Photovoltaics India today is the second largest manufacturer in the world of PV panels based on crystalline solar cells. (Industrial production in this area has reached a level of 11 MW per year which is about 10% of the world’s total PV production) A major drive has also been initiated by the Government to export Indian PV products, systems, technologies and services (Solar Photovoltaic plant and equipment has been exported to countries in the Middle East and Africa)
Pv growth in india S olar installed capacity in India is 20006 MW
Growth of solar Every year growth of installed capacity about approximately 20%
High band gap PV cell provides higher voltage Typical efficiency of commercial PV is around 12% T h eoret i ca l e ff i c i e n c y o f P V ce l l
