Commission
The Indian Atomic Energy Commission was first setup in August 1948 in the Department of Scientific Research, which was created a few months earlier in June 1948. The Department of Atomic Energy (DAE) was setup on August 3, 1954 under the direct charge of the Prime Minister through a Presidential Order. Subsequently, in accordance with a Government Resolution dated March 1, 1958, the Atomic Energy Commission (AEC) was established in the Department of Atomic Energy. The Prime Minister (late Pandit Jawaharlal Nehru) also laid a copy of this Resolution on the table of the Lok Sabha on March 24, 1958.
According to the Resolution constituting the AEC, the Secretary to the Government of India in the Department of Atomic Energy is ex-officer Chairman of the Commission. The other Members of the AEC are appointed for each calendar year on the recommendation of the Chairman, AEC and after approval by the Prime Minster.

Power utilities including allocated shares in joint and central sector utilities
Captive generating capacity connected to the grid (MW) = 19509 |
RES -Renewable Energy Sources includes Small Hydro Project(SHP), Biomass Gas(BG), Biomass Power(BP), Urban & Industrial waste Power(U&I), and Wind Energy.
The installed capacity figures as on 30.06.2010 in respect of RES is based on statement dated 02.11.2010 from Ministry of Renewable Energy(MNRE) where cumulative Grid interactive power installed capacity has been indicated as 17174.60 MW.
Reconciliation of installed capacity of Hydro capacity resulted in transfer of 135 MW from conventional to SHP-RES and retrieval of installed capacity of 67.20 from SHP-RES to conventional Hydro has resulted in net addition of 67.8 MW to SHP under RES.
Also 30 MW of capacity in the nature of Waste Heat Recovery Power Plant at Goa Energy Private Limited under U&L category of RES Out of this installed capacity due to wind - (374.636 MW) and small hydro (110.79 MW) appearing in captive capacity has been deducted to arrive at installed capacity of utilities in respect of RES.
(17174.60-485.43+67.8+30=16786.98)

Introduction
The Wing: The Space Wing (ISRO Technical Liaison Unit) is responsible for co-ordination of all space related activities between India (ISRO) and France (CNES). The Wing also caters to similar activities with other space agencies of Europe such as ESA, DLR (Germany), ASI (Italy), UK Space Agency and Arianespace. The main activities of Space Wing include:
- To co-ordinate with these space agencies with respect to bilateral/multilateral co-operation, satellite launches, joint missions, payloads and tracking station support.
- Technical Liaison with space agencies in Europe to ascertain the state-of-the-art technology on various launch vehicle and satellite systems and providing feedback to ISRO.
- Representation of ISRO in various technical forums and international organizations like UN-COPUOUS, IAF, COSPAR and EUMETSAT.
- Interfacing with different manufacturers and suppliers of components from Europe to prevent any delays to ISRO programmes.
ISRO: The objective of the Indian Space Research Organization (ISRO) is to develop space science, technology and applications towards achieving self reliance and facilitating in all round development of the nation. ISRO has the following programmes:
- Indian National Satellite (INSAT) programme for telecommunication, television broadcasting, meteoroglogy, developmental education, societal applications such as telemedicine, tele-education, tele-advisories and similar such services.
- Indian Remote Sensing (IRS) programme for management of natural resources and various developmental projects across the country using space based imagery
- Indigenous capability for design and development of satellite and associated technologies for communications, navigation, remote sensing and space sciences.
- Design and development of launch vehicles for access to space and orbiting INSAT, IRS satellites and space science missions.
International Cooperation: ISRO places great importance on working together with other countries and international bodies in promoting the development and use of space technology for different applications. ISRO continues to harness the benefits of international cooperation through (i) working together with other space agencies in programmes of mutual interest (ii) participating in international committees and other fora dealing with space policies and coordination of space operations and (iii) providing expertise and services to other nations in the applications of space technology. Formal cooperative arrangements are currently in place with space agencies of 33 countries and three multinational bodies.

Bilateral relations with France
Bilateral relations with France:
France and India view each other as important partners in space technology and applications. Indian Space Research Organisation (ISRO) and its French counterpart Centre National de Etudes Spatiales (CNES) have a rich history of cooperation and collaboration spanning more than five decades. The cooperation started with the setting up of sounding rocket launching facilities at Thumba (India) in the early 1960s and progressed through the development of liquid engines in the 1970s. ISRO and CNES worked as equal partners in the realization of two joint satellites. The MeghaTropiques satellite for monitoring tropical atmosphere was launched in late 2011 and the Satellite for ARGOS and ALTIKA (SARAL) was launched in 2013. Both these satellites were launched using India’s Polar Satellite Launch Vehicle (PSLV). These satellites continue to provide useful data for atmosphere monitoring, environment monitoring and ocean surface topography. Cooperation in space was one of the highlights of the visit of the Indian Prime Minister to France in April 2015 with the following events:
· Joint ISRO-CNES Exhibition: A joint ISRO-CNES exhibition was held at CNES Headquarters (Paris) to mark the completion of 50 Years of Cooperation in Space.
· Signing of MoUs: Two MoUs and a program for reinforced cooperation on Space was signed and exchanged between the two sides as part of the visit.
· Release of Stamps: Two stamps carrying images of jointly developed satellites - Megha Tropiques and SARAL, were released during the visit.
· Visit to CNES, Toulouse: Honorable Prime Minister of India visited CNES facilities at Toulouse and was updated on the bilateral cooperation activities.
Under a commercial Launch Service Agreement between Antrix Corporation Limited and ASTRIUM SAS, a company under EADS, France, an advanced Remote Sensing satellite - SPOT-7 built by ASTRIUM SAS was successfully launched on-board ISRO's Polar Satellite Launch Vehicle from India on 30th June 2014. Arianespace, France has been the major provider of launch services to Indian Geo-Stationary satellites. Subsequent to the launch of APPLE satellite on a co-operative mode in June 1981, 19 Geo-Stationary satellites of India have been launched by Arianespace on a commercial basis including the advanced communications satellite GSAT-15 launched on November 10 2015. France has proven to be a reliable supplier for components, spares and equipment for the Indian Space Programme.
The last bilateral meeting between the Chiefs of the Space Agencies of France (CNES) and India (ISRO) was held on 23rd November 2015 at New Delhi. The two sides are currently working on finalizing agreements for the forthcoming visit of French President to India.
