The webinar on ‘Green Energy in Farming’ is conducted by Extension Education Institute, Rajendranagar, Hyderabad on 23rd September, 2024 for the Middle Level Extension Officials of Southern states and Union Territories. The resource persons and the topics delivered by them are- D r . P . Subramanian , Professor , Department of Renewable Energy Engineering . TNAU, Coimbatore and the topic delivered was ‘Green Energy Generation from Farm Resources’. Dr. Vijayakumar Palled, Professor (FMPE) & PI, ICAR-AICRP ON EAAI, Department of RenewableEnergy Engineering, College of Agricultural Engineering, UAS, Raichur, Karnataka and the topic delivered was ‘Applications of Solar Energy in Agriculture and Allied Sectors’ and Dr.R.Swamy, Associate Professor & Univ.Head (RNEE),Collegeof Agriculture, Department of AgriculturalEngineering, Rajendranagar, Hyderabad and thee topic delivered was ‘Green Energy through Biomass and Biogas’. The webinar highlighted that, Green energy often comes from renewable energy sources although there are some differences between renewable and green energy. The green energy often comes from renewable energy technologies such as solar energy, wind power, geothermal energy, biomass and hydroelectric power. Each of these technologies works in different ways, whether that is by taking power from the sun, as with solar panels, or using wind turbines or the flow of water to generate energy. The experts opined that, the common type of renewable energy is usually produced using photovoltaic cells that capture sunlight and turn it into electricity. Particularly suited to offshore and higher altitude sites, wind energy uses the power of the flow of air around the world to push turbines that then generate electricity. Hydropower is a type of green energy uses the flow of water in rivers, streams, dams or elsewhere to produce electricity. Geothermal energy is a type of green power uses thermal energy that has been stored just under the earth’s crust. The webinar illustrated on usage of Biofuel and Biomass as Green Energy options because they can be used as alternatives to fossil fuels and have several environmental benefits like Carbon neutrality, Renewable energy, Versatile and Large source of renewable energy. However, biofuels and biomass do have some potential drawbacks, including Land use, Greenhouse gas emissions and Energy density. Earlier Dr. M.Jagan Mohan Reddy, Director. Extension Education Institute (EEI), Rajendranagar, Hyderabad said that Green energy is important for the environment as it replaces the negative effects of fossil fuels with more environmentally-friendly alternatives. Derived from natural resources, green energy is also often renewable and clean, meaning that they emit no or few greenhouse gases and are often readily available. Few participated officers were cleared their doubts from the resource persons on the aspects like harnessing solar energy at house hold level, application of solar energy in dairy industry, schemes operated by the GoI, detailed explanation on other areas of green energy other than solar energy, more particulars about solar energy pumps in Agriculture, how to harness ground water through solar energy for the benfit of farmers and Agri volatile systems in pros and cons in Agril. Etc. Fifty five Middle Level Extension Officials from the client departments of Agriculture, Horticulture, Dairy, Forest, SAUs and Animal Husbandry representing client states of AP, Telangana, Kerala, Karnataka, Odisha and Pudicherry. The webinar was moderated by Dr.D.Shireesha, Assistant Professor, EEI, Hyderabad.
