So the risk management of staff training turns to be a key link of the human resources management work in the enterprise. In this paper, starting from the connotation of employee training risk management, it is shown that the main reasons of employee training risk are as follows: the wrong idea, the imperfect training system, unreasonable training technology, loss of talents, cultivating the competition, enlargement of professional and technical secrecy, and the time lag of getting training benefits. Aimed at different causes of the staff training risk, the measures to prevent the occurrence of risk or reduce the loss of training risk to minimum are put forward. They are establishing a correct concept of staff training, building the effective training system, adopting appropriate training technology, preventing the loss of employees after training, strengthening the protection of enterprise technical and commercial secrets, eliminating or reducing devaluation of training project value.","PeriodicalId":226140,"journal":{"name":"Indian Journal of Power and River Valley Development","volume":"103 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-07-12","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"132477311","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Over the next decades, there will be radical changes in the way we produce and consume energy. The conventional energy infrastructure being set up now would be abandoned ever before their economic life is over. A quarter of India’s population have no access to electricity and our per capita consumption of electricity is very low at almost one third of world average with millions getting power a few hours a day. Surprisingly the plant load factor (PLF) for thermal power plant have steadily declined over the last four years and was only 63.6% in Sep. 2015. Breakthrough in solar plant technology posed a challenge for fossil fuel based thermal power plants. In April 2017, the tariff of utility connected large solar power projects in India hit a record low of Rs.3/kWh. This is the same as the average tariff of coal based power. At this tariff, solar plants are cheaper than a large number of new and old coal fired power plants in India.Stringent pollution norms add to the cost of generation of thermal power. Several projects in the power sector have become unviable on account of states like Andhra Pradesh, Uttar Pradesh and Karnataka have either cancelled the power purchase agreement or reworking on them. Few more states may follow in cancellation of power purchase agreement (PPA). Distribution Companies (DISCOMS) are reluctant to sign PPA because of high tariff, demand uncertainties, long duration of PPA and need to take the responsibility of fixed charges for the life of PPA. This will lead to creation of non-performing asset (NPA) worth Rs.1.5 lakh crores and to the extent the bank loans will be at risk.Some mitigation measures are suggested to meet the challenges in operation of coal/lignite based thermal power plants.","PeriodicalId":226140,"journal":{"name":"Indian Journal of Power and River Valley Development","volume":"72 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-07-12","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"122293480","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However the human life in the earth may not be continued for few minutes without air. Air comes under. 24 ? 7 in our human system. In such condition, air plus sulphur dioxide is harmful to respiratory system which leads to premature deaths and reduction in life expectancy. It is a big shock to the nation that India becomes the highest emitter of sulphur dioxide of the world, surpassing the China. It is not a encouraging trend for us. Under these circumstances MOEF and CC has notified the norms for various pollutants including sulphur dioxide emission from thermal power plants in December 2015. The norms cover various size plants for various periods with various levels of emission, with a timeframe of two years as implementation schedule. This notification is a correct notification in correct direction, but with some time delay. This notification has put about 1800000 MW in study mode, mainly of coal fired units in nature. The sulphur dioxide emission may be well controlled by installing flue gas desulphurisation (FGD) system in boiler flue gas path. By injecting lime in the flue gas path, sulphur dioxide is converted to calcium sulphite and then by reacting with oxygen, it is converted to calcium sulphate. Thus the flue gas is purified from sulphur dioxide. India has to import this technology. Technology transfer is a difficult task especially on commercial terms. This article narrates the various happenings in the country after the publication of notification.so that the reader gets the overall picture in single presentation. The implementation of the flue gas desulphurisation (FGD) system in Indian thermal power plants as early as possible, may improve the environment prevails in the country. This paper deals with various issues related to Sulphur dioxide emission and reduction measures.","PeriodicalId":226140,"journal":{"name":"Indian Journal of Power and River Valley Development","volume":"49 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-07-12","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"129156812","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
