Mission

Vision & Objectives

Vision

Conversion of Biomass to Power in an ecofriendly and cost effective manner with suitable market mechanism thereby mitigation of air quality deterioration.

उपायुक्त बाजार तंत्र के साथ पर्यावरण के अणु और सस्ते तारीके से बायोमास का बिजली में रूपांतरन जिससे वायु गुणवत्ता में सुधार हो।

Objective

(a) To increase the level of co-firing from present 5% to higher levels to have a larger share of carbon neutral power generation from the thermal power plants.

को-फायरिंग के स्तर को वर्तमान 5% से बढ़ाकर उच्च स्तर तक करना ताकि ताप विद्युत संयंत्रों से कार्बन न्यूट्रल बिजली उत्पादन का एक बड़ा हिस्सा हो सके।

(b) To take up R&D activity in boiler design to handle the higher amount of silica, alkalis in the biomass pellets.

बायोमास पेलेट्स में सिलिका, क्षार की अधिक मातृ को सम्भालने के लाई बॉयलर दीजैन में अनुसंधान गतिविधि शूरू करना।

(c) To facilitate overcoming the constraints in supply chain of bio mass pellets and agro- residue and its transport upto to the power plants.

बायोमास पेलेट्स और कृषि अवशेषों की आपूर्ति श्रृंखला में बाधाओं को दूर करने और बिजली संयंत्रों तक इसके परिवहन की सुविधा के लिए।

(d) To consider regulatory issues in biomass co-firing.

बायोमास को-फायरिंग में नियामक मुद्दों पर विचार करना।
