



Potential based on available biomass including
cogeneration is about 20,000 MW
More than 50% of cogeneration is already exploited
Only about 2000 MW of biomass power plants are
installed
Most of these are combustion based, capacities exceeding
5 MW
Niche exists for few 100 kW to 2 MW. These have
advantages of not disturbing biomass flows greatly
UNDP has supported now two such projects
◦ Biomass Energy for Rural India – at panchayat level, with energy
plantations and biomass power generation, evacuation of power to
grid
◦ Ankur biomass power, Sankheda Gujrat – Open access power sale,

BERI – LEARNING
 Biomass supply:
 3000 acres of plantations developed, 1/3rd on panchayat, 1/3rd
on forest department land and 1/3rd farm forestry.
 Expected yield was 12,000 tons per year, assessed yield is
5,000 tons per year
 Protection? Nutrients?
 11 kV grid line a must for evacuation to run such systems – project
lost 2 years but a very important lesson
 Load shift mechanism and catering to rural loads can help improve
economics, can help increase PLF, local ownership – could not be
demonstrated
 Huge gap in generation cost and sale revenue: tariff given by
BESCOM was 2.85 Rs/kWh [14 year binding at 5% annual
escalation]. Production cost was 8.85 Rs per kWh. Project
supported operation till 31 Dec 2012 and then handed over to GoK.
It is in halt now
 Is exploring commercial and market based loads better than
DISCOMs tariff based purchase?
 Should regulatory/policy instruments be more flexible?

BERI – POTENTIAL
 India has 230,000 grama panchayats. Each require about 250 kW
power.
 When run at even 65% PLF which project has demonstrated
 A typical biomass enterprise of 250 kW can
 generate 1.5 million units
 generate about Rs 1.2 Crore turnover a small scale enterprise
 employ AT LEAST 12 jobs on continuous basis. Thus it can
provide 230,000 rural enterprises and about 2.76 million direct
jobs
 300 acres of land is required for energy plantation to run 250
kW plant at modest yield of 10 tons per acre per year
 Reduce greenhouse gas emissions
 57,500 MW of power production potential
 Energy plantation required would be 69 million acres [we have
wasteland of about 150 million acres]
 Above numbers are for discussions and not to quote



Overall, the project was unique in three respects.
◦ First is that the project ensured supply of biomass resources through a dedicated plantation
to run a 1 MW cumulative biomass gasifier plants on a continuous basis.
◦ Second, it strengthened grid interaction at the tail end with continuous power supply to the
11-kV sub-megawatt plant located in the villages. And
◦ third, the project established operational benchmarks for sub-megawatt biomass-based
gasifier plants on the field.



One of the major take away is also the conditions under which such plants can sustain - tariff
offered to the electricity by the DISCOMs should be sufficient, in case of BERI the tariff offered
was Rs 2.85 per kWh whereas the cost of power production is Rs 8 plus per kWh



an urgent need for tariff revision – more so for sub-megawatt scale.



This book offers valuable insight and lessons for development professionals, policy makers,
researchers, and students on the implementation and management of renewable energy-based
sub-megawatt power projects in rural areas.

SWH – ESCO, perhaps for the first time




An ESCO [Aspiration energy] installed 4,200 sq. m.
collector area of SWH systems at Wheels India Pvt. Ltd.,
a passenger car plant that reduces use of furnace oil for
hot water in the degreasing process. It has resulted in
saving 383 liters of furnace oil a day or close to 115,000
liters annually.
Another auto parts company, Sona Koya Steering
Systems installed 1333 sq. m. collector area of SWH
systems in 2012 also operated by the ESCO that
supplements use of furnace oil for their pressured water
heating systems. It has resulted in saving 120 liters of
furnace oil a day or 36,000 liters annually.

23

Region wise potential for SWHs



Three testing facilities are operational
◦ Solar Energy Center, Gurgaon;
◦ Regional Test Center, University of Pune &
◦ Regional Test Center, Hamirpur.

◦ The facility is open to the manufacturers to test their SWH system/ components for
complying with the ‘minimum efficiency specifications’ (for ETCs) and BIS standards for
FPCs systems.

24

Sector-wise SWH potential

CDM project registered for SWH systems, earnings from carbon credits
will be used for after sales service and performance guarantee for lifetime
of the system
30 awareness programmes were held across the country where 1000
people participated has mobilised Detailed Project Reports (DPRs) for 134
SWH systems and installations with a total capacity of 1,537,000 liters per
day [30,000 sq.m.]
25

Knowledge Products


A dedicated web site www.solarwaterheater.gov.in, provides FAQs on
SWHs, user’s handbook, links to the company websites of accredited
manufacturers, information on existing subsidy and policy serving as an
information portal.
◦ Training manuals have been prepared for installers in 9 different Indian languages for
installation and trouble shooting of SWH systems.
◦ Case studies, consultant guides and market studies of 5 different sectors of Himalayan
region, Delhi & NCR region, domestic, industrial and commercial have been developed.



Significant energy savings and GHG reductions
◦ 3.57 MU [Million Units] of electricity saved in the project duration translates to GHG
reduction of 1.66 million tCO2.

26

Looking to the future


Enabling an energy labeling system initiated by the project is approved to ensure best quality
products



Setting up of a system by MNRE for M&V [Measurements and Verification], information
collection and performance monitoring of new SWH installations



Building state and municipal-level capacities to achieve and manage acceleration of SWH use and
meet the targets set for Phase II of JNNSM



Training to increase the number of semi-skilled and skilled workers needed for installations,
after sales maintenance and trouble shooting of SWH systems



Strengthening market mechanisms through ESCO models



Including SWH under the solar specific Renewable Purchase Obligation (RPO) for industrial
consumers



Widespread use of a prototype of a low cost, portable SWH system that is currently being
tested in hilly regions



Realising the potential of energy saving and GHG reductions: of installations made during the
project period has potential to save 27.9 MU of electricity translating to 24.9 tCO 2 in the 15
year life time of the Solar Water Heating systems.



A target of 20 million square meters of collector area of SWH systems as per the Jawaharlal
Nehru National Solar Mission (JNNSM) by 2022 is to be realized by.

In summary
Steel re-rolling mills (SRRMs) constitute an important link in the overall supply
chain of steel in the country, supplying a majority of India’s long steel products. The
direct energy-use in the SRRM sector includes heating fuels (furnace oil, natural gas,
and coal) and electrical energy. Steel industry consumes 10% of total energy
consumed in India and SRRMs consume 11% of the energy consumed in steel
sector. The cost of energy in SRRM is estimated at 25%–30% of the overall
production cost. The Energy Efficiency interventions brought energy savings of 25
to 45% reduction. In summary, every SRRM invested about Rs 1.5 to 2 Crore [a
one time investment lasts for 10 to 20 years] and the cost of fuel saved exceeds Rs
1 crore annually. This ‘process document’ details out story of how technology
interventions were made in SRRMs. I along with two others are the editors of the
book Energy-Efficient Steel Re-rolling: How a pioneering project is transforming the
Indian secondary steel sector.

Energy Access




In India, 400 million people are without electricity.This translates to
lesser opportunities for better standard of living and even lesser
opportunities for entrepreneurship.
MNRE and UNDP to encourage entrepreneurship in these energy
deficient rural and peri-urban locales supported different business
models. These are available at:
