“…The compensation terms, if any, for land acquisition and proper resettlement issues, etc., are to be dictated appropriately [142]. In the case of India, many projects hit a roadblock because of these reasons, and one example is Narmada river hydroelectric cum water irrigation project started in 1961 and completed only in 2017 [143][144][145]. The major issues are people's displacement without a satisfactory compensation mechanism, as through the course of this project, nearly 400,000 people are displaced, and livelihoods of a further 600,000 are seriously affected [146].…”

Climate change concerns, resource constraints on conventional energy sources, ever-increasing electricity demand with new loads on the consumer side, improving electricity access, and the new challenge of matching dynamic energy resources with dynamic demand have forced the transitions in electricity systems worldwide. The Indian electricity system is undergoing significant transitions concerning all segments, viz., electricity generation, transmission & distribution, and demand-side to manage such challenges. These transitions throw numerous challenges in technical, economic, social, and policy dimensions. This paper tries to elucidate these transitions and associated challenges in the Indian electricity system. The overall goal of the paper is to present such an understanding of these transitions to introduce appropriate interventions for the effective operation of future electricity systems. The electricity sector has a cardinal role in reducing global greenhouse gas emissions. Only a sustainable electricity system can cater to the needs of the people. It can be concluded that the electricity sector's transition is inevitable, and it is eternal.

“…Non-conventional energy systems are developed to avoid the constraints imposed by weather conditions, and resources can be used by various sources for long periods without any disturbances [53,54]. Hybrid non-conventional energy resources are developed in Australia, which involves modeling, techno-economic analysis, and load managing [27]. In one study, there were no restrictions based on daily schedules for hybrid non-conventional resources, and they worked for the whole day without any intervals [55].…”

“…Because of its increasing population, the demand for energy has also increased rapidly. In 1992, the Indian Ministry of Non-conventional Energy Sources was founded; this ministry was renamed in 2006 and is now known as the Ministry of New and Renewable Energy (MNRE) [27]. In India, energy is produced from both conventional and non-conventional resources.…”

A strong energy mix of Renewable Energy Sources (RESs) is needed for sustainable development in the electricity sector. India stands as one of the fastest developing countries in terms of RES production. In this framework, the main objective of this review is to critically scrutinize the Maharashtra state energy landscape to discover the gaps, barriers, and challenges therein and to provide recommendations and suggestions for attaining the RES target by 2022. This work begins with a discussion about the RES trends in various developing countries. Subsequently, it scrutinizes the installed capacity of India, reporting that Maharashtra state holds a considerable stake in the Indian energy mix. A further examination of the state energy mix is carried out by comparing the current and future targets of the state action plan. It is found that the installed capacity of RESs accounts for about 22% of the state energy mix. Moreover, the current installed capacity trend is markedly different from the goals set out in the action plan of the state. Notably, the installed capacity of solar energy is four times less than the target for 2020. Importantly, meeting the targeted RES capacity for 2022 presents a great challenge to the state. Considering this, an analysis of the state’s strengths, barriers, and challenges is presented. Moreover, strong suggestions and recommendations are provided to clear the track to reach the desired destination. This can be useful for the government agencies, research community, private investors, policymakers, and stakeholders involved in building a sustainable energy system for the future.

“…The project is located 15 km from the coast, and there were measured winds between 6.9-7.5 m/s and an average water depth of 20 m. The project is supported by public and private resources, with 92.7 billion dollars (USD) available to generate 2500 MW of energy (Lee et al, 2013). Nesamalar et al (2017) analysed the status, barriers, and potential of renewable energies in the Tamilnadu state (India), and showed that the state planned to generate 10.65 GW of renewable energy by 2023, which 127 428 MW are associated to OWE (WISE, 2012).…”

Title: Renewables energies in Colombia and the opportunity for the offshore wind technology. Some comments that still need a modification are given as follows.R/ Thank you for your comments. Enclosed we will answer each one of them. Please avoid abbreviation in Abstract. R/ We removed abbreviations in the abstract as follows:"Global offshore wind technology shows increasing progress evidenced in the recent reports of wind power capacity, expectations of market expansion and international research projects. Colombia is privileged with several types of natural resources (e.g. wind, sun, water) but there is not a clear legal context to regulate sustainable and safe exploitation of the offshore wind energy considered nonconventional. The development of offshore wind technology in Colombia could attend the energy demand when the hydroelectric system presents low electricity generation during dry hydrological conditions and El Niño -South Oscillations events. This paper analyses international actions that have motivated different countries to establish strategies to reduce CO2, and their advances and challenges in implementing offshore wind technology. The review of the administrative framework of renewable energy in Colombia proved the lack of information for implementing offshore wind technology. Furthermore, the analysis of several studies of marine energies showed the need to increase the knowledge of offshore wind energy. The local applying projects to generate electricity from non-conventional renewable energies are not considering offshore wind energy projects. Hence, this research analyzed wind speed and calculated wind power density at different height levels, what evidenced magnitudes and positive trends what justify to increase the research in offshore wind energy in Colombia. As a result, the present document compiles technical, economic, administrative and legal information of the renewable energies in Colombia that may be used for taking decisions of different stakeholders and evidences the potential implementing offshore wind farms in areas near to the Colombian Caribbean coast. Colombia has great resources to implement offshore wind energy technologies, reducing the dependence on fossil fuels and substituting other systems when they cannot guarantee the energy offer."  A Literature Section needs to be included in the writing before RM section. You need to differ between literature analysis and your study analysis. In the LR section, you need to deeply analyse previous related studies and reveal the knowledge gaps and inconsistencies in the literature, then relate them to the objective of your study. The results analysis and discussion are presented after the methodology section.R/ Thank you for the suggestion. As we commented in the Revision #1, the methodology that we exposed for the manuscript (RM section), to be considered as a Review Article and also a Research article itself, is to describe the way how we collected and presented data in each section. Therefore, the manuscript is arranged accordin...
