Energy Policy MCQ — 30 Practice Questions with Answers

Explanation

The cited policy charges no registration fee for biomass briquette or pellet manufacturing unit registration. Rs 30,000 per MW plus GST applies to biomass and waste-to-energy power project registration, not briquette or pellet manufacturing units. The fixed per-unit and per-project amounts are not the fee stated for these manufacturing units.

Explanation

The policy recognises a wind-solar plant as hybrid when the rated capacity of one resource is at least 25% of the rated capacity of the other resource. Exact equality is not required, a 50% solar-to-wind condition is stricter than the policy threshold, and a 10 MW minimum-resource test is not the stated recognition rule.

Explanation

The correct matching is biomass-based power project with biomass-based power generation, briquette or pellet plant with densified biomass-fuel manufacturing, biomass co-firing with biomass used along with conventional fuel, and waste-to-energy with MSW, RDF, industrial waste or medical waste. The other matchings shift waste inputs, co-firing and briquette or pellet manufacturing into the wrong activity buckets.

Explanation

Statement 1 is correct because the policy promoted solar water pumps, home lighting systems and solar water heaters as off-grid applications. Statement 2 is correct because it also covered standalone solar systems for remote villages and Dhanis. Statement 3 is wrong because the cited fact is about off-grid applications and standalone systems, not a list confined to grid-connected municipal rooftop systems.

Explanation

The policy sets the 2030 production target at 2,000 kilo tonnes per annum of green hydrogen. The figures of 1,000, 5,000 and 10,000 kilo tonnes per annum are close numerical distractors, but they are not the target stated in the Rajasthan Green Hydrogen Policy, 2023.
