2. Assuring 24X7 Power to all Smart Cities
Energy in Smart Cities
Energy powers the Technologies which are the foundations of Smart City.
Assuring 24X7 Power to all Smart Cities
Energy should be operated with completely Smart Grid Technology.

6. Energy on Smart Grid Technology
Electricity usage, costs and control
Manage huge volume of data
Tools to help the consumers control their usage so they can lower their bills
Management of the peak loads by reducing the demand
Help consumers to manage their usage and power bills
How much energy is needed and helps utility to lower the purchased power cost.
Financial incentives to companies that reduce their load in response to a request.
A smart city having a smart technology based grid should be provided with
Ultra high speed internet, voice and video access to all the consumers, City
wide Wi-Fi network for city and utility, Street light controls, Surveillance
cameras. This will help to manage automatic outage and faults in an elegant
manner.

11. Can India’s 50% vehicles be Electric by 2030?
Year
cost
Mechanical Drive-train
Electrical Drive-train
Recent
Rationale
India does not have much oil
Our oil imports rising continuously: hurts Indian economy
No solution in site in short, medium or long-term
Our cities and towns are highly congested
Highly polluting urban India
Cost of mechanical (IC Engine) drive-train (MDT) goes up year after year
Electrical drive-train without batteries (EDT) cost goes down year after year (R&D, Moore’s law and SW)
Crosses each other and Gap increase year after year
Year
cost
Petrol cost per Km
Battery + charge cost per Km
Li-Ion Battery costs fall 8% per annum
Cost of Fuel (Petrol) per Km increases every year
Total cost of battery per Km (life-time depreciation, interest, maintenance and charging of battery) keeps coming down
Crossed over recently and gap likely to only accelerate
