The Department of Geology, Panjab University,
Chandigarh under the aegis of the ONGC Chair, is holding an
interactive one-day Workshop-cum-Seminar on “The Energy Scenario in a Consumer Driven
India” on November 14, 2018 with a view to highlight the potential
and the constraints on the three major sources of energy i.e. Nuclear Energy, Hydrocarbon
Energy and Non-conventional Energy. The role of energy from
pooled resources will also be discussed. The leading experts in the
field of Nuclear Energy will highlight its importance and exploration and
will dwell on the specific need to promote this form of energy when many
countries of the world are shutting down their nuclear plants. Experts
will highlight the present scenario of gas hydrates and their exploitation
with projection of these situations in the coming decades. Another
highlighted aspect will be the great potential of shale gas as at present
it remains under-exploited in the country. In the USA, it has changed the commercial
dimension with several companies who have taken advantage of this relatively new
high hydrocarbon potential. Lastly there is a vast potential in the
non-conventional energy resources, which also commensurate with our
energy needs. This includes geothermal, solar, hydroelectric, wind
and tidal energy resources. It will be an ideal opportunity for the
participants consisting of academicians, students and interested
persons to interact and remove or clarify their doubts. A common
concern of society for more power plants when Nuclear Energy is destructive
shall also be addressed.
