13. (a) Read the following chart, and describe it. Interpret and analyse the data in two paragraphs. (APR/MAY 2019)

State wise energy capacity in India by Feb 2013 in MW

Ans: The horizontal bar chart describes the state wise wind energy capacity of India in February 2013. Wind is actually a form of solar energy. Winds are caused by the heating of the atmosphere by the sun, the rotation of the Earth, and the Earth's surface irregularities. For as long as the sun shines and the wind blows, the energy produced can be harnessed to send power across the grid. The wind energy is measured in megawatt. The chart is prepared according to a descending order of mega watt production capacity. The state that stands first in solar energy capacity is Tamil Nadu which is capable of producing 7154mw of solar energy. The land feasible for wind energy production is available in large quantities in Tamil Nadu. The second state is Gujarat which produces 3093 mw of solar energy. The third state is Maharashtra producing 2976 megawatt of solar energy. The fourth is Rajasthan producing 2355 megawatt of solar energy.

Karnataka, Andhra Pradesh, Madhya Pradesh and other states produce 2113mw, 435 mw, 386 mw and 39mw respectively. They produce solar energy comparatively less than the production of other states. Some states do not produce solar energy. They depend on their neighboring state for solar energy consumption. The solar energy production is directly proportional to the feasible condition of the place of production. The production and consumption varies in different states. Some states consume and some states produce. The three main factors that influence power output are: wind speed, air density, and blade radius. Wind turbines need to be in areas with a lot of wind on a regular basis, which is more important than having occasional high winds. If the conditions are feasible, all states can produce solar energy as per their needs.

 

13. (b) Do you think the linking of rivers in India will help to solve water crisis in the country? Analyse the question and write an essay in two paragraphs. In around (16) (APR/MAY 2019) 200 words.

Ans: The linking of rivers has many advantages and disadvantages. Let us see the advantages first. It controls flood. It gives water for dry areas. It improves irrigation and thereby it improves the production of food crops. Both the people and the farmers will be benefitted with networking of rivers. The farmers need not wait for monsoon. It improves transportation also. It makes the land fertile. Hydro electricity can be produced from reservoirs constructed near rivers. The rivers can be linked by canals and reservoirs.

The linking of rivers has many disadvantages also. It should be done after getting national and international consent. Thorough research has to be done by experts because it causes changes in environment and it needs heavy shelling of funds in crores. Rivers are gifts of God. The ancient civilization was found to inhabit the areas near rivers. To block the natural flow of rivers and diverting it may have negative effects in future which we cannot foresee. The construction is a Herculean task and Himalayan endeavor. The constructions of canals and reservoir may result in evacuation of houses by the inhabitants. The lives of the people will be affected. The compensation given by the government may not fulfill their needs. The construction may result in deforestation. The adjacent lands may become swampy and agriculture may not be possible in those lands. So the linking of rivers project has to be done at a small level after a great a scrutiny. The interlinking of rivers in the Himalayan ranges and the rivers from the South will have to be handled carefully. Rivers have been the bone of contention for example Kaveri river has been a topic of dispute between TN and Karnataka in the same way as Chambal river between Rajasthan and Madhya Pradesh. So the economical remedies like creating ponds and renovating lakes can be the solution for water crisis. "Save water and save lives" should be everyone's motto.
