Nominations open for CSP Today India awards 2013
The inaugural CSP Today India awards ceremony takes place on March 12, and CSP developers, EPCs, suppliers and technology providers can now be nominated.
CSP has made tremendous progress since the announcement of the Jawaharlal Nehru National Solar Mission in 2010. With Phase I projects now drawing closer to completion, the first milestone in India's CSP learning curve is drawing closer. CSP Today has chosen the next CSP Today India conference (12-13 March, New Delhi) as the time for the industry to reflect upon its progress and celebrate its first achievements.
At the awards ceremony, industry leaders will be recognized for their achievements in one of 4 categories: CSP India Developer Award, CSP India Engineering Performance Award, CSP India Technology and Supplier Award, and the prestigious CSP India Personality of the Year.

The endangered wild mountain goat, Nilgiri tahr, found only in high altitudes in India's Western Ghats—could be losing their footing with increasing climate change. Even under moderate scenarios of future climate change, tahrs could lose approximately 60 per cent of their habitats from the 2030s on, predict scientists in their study in Ecological Engineering, that emphasizes the need for ecological restoration. Scientists tried to predict how climate change can affect tahr habitat in the Ghats by mapping tahr distribution (using existing information and field surveys) and then using climatic factors of these locations to see where tahrs would be able to survive, given the current and future climate change scenarios. They found that tahr strongholds such as Chinnar, Eravikulam, and Parambikulam, in Kerala will still be stable habitats under different climate change scenarios.
