List of Institutes\/ Agencies under MNRE<\/h1>\n

MNRE has six different institutes to manage six different aspects of renewable energy – solar, wind, bioenergy and hydropower. These six institutes under MNRE to promote renewable energy in India are:<\/p>\n

1) Solar Energy Center<\/h3>\n

Established in 1982, SEC is a body under MNRE to develop solar energy<\/strong> and its related technology in India. Its functions include various aspects right from the utilization of solar energy as a resource to the successful implementation of solar energy into various technologies and applications. It also provides training in the solar energy field and testing, standardization, performance evaluation, monitoring and data evaluation.<\/p>\n

3) SSS NIRE<\/h3>\n

Sardar Swaran Singh National Institute of Renewable Energy is established in Kapurthala Punjab to monitor the Biomass energy<\/strong> in the country. The institute undergoes various research and development, training, testing and standardization of bioenergy in India. The main objective of SSS NIRE is to test the feasibility and usability of biofuels,\u00a0bioenergy and synthetic fuels in different forms (solid, liquid and gaseous) to be used for transportation and different portable and stationary applications.<\/p>\n

4) AHEC<\/h3>\n

Alternate Hydro Energy Center \u00a0was formed in 1982 in Roorkee and deals with the promotion of\u00a0Small Hydropower<\/strong> projects. It also deals with the feasibility of\u00a0developing such small hydropower projects in conjunction with\u00a0the other renewable energy sources like solar, wind and biomass. The main function includes the designing and and execution of small hydro projects and it also provides additional services like technical support, consultancy services and refurbishment of old projects.<\/p>\n

5) IREDA<\/h3>\n

The Indian Renewable Energy Development Agency is a non banking financial institution formed\u00a0for providing term loans for\u00a0renewable energy<\/strong> projects in India.<\/p>\n

6) SECI<\/h3>\n

Solar Energy Corporation of India is a non-profit making Company registered under Companies Act India 1956. It has its office in New Delhi and functions to promote solar energy in India. The current projects of SECI includes implementation of JNNSM phase II<\/strong> policies and projects, to oversee solar thermal installations and run pilot power plants, implementation of grid connected Solar Roof-Top scheme and\u00a0solar power plants and related research and development.<\/p>\n
