Adding value to coir pith waste by making into biomass pellets
November 20, 2007 to
May 11, 2010
Coir pith is the waste material obtained after using the coir from the coconut shells. This raw material has a lot of moisture, which needs to be removed for pelletizing and adding value to coir pith waste for use in gasifiers and stoves.Green Jobs
December 4, 2009 to
May 10, 2010
TERI in the past 2 decades has undertaken several community based projects in various sectors which have lead to creation of green jobs - as those directly tied to the production of green products or services. The objective of the present study is to primarily give a framework to evaluate the direct and indirect effects of the green jobs. Consequently, it is proposed to develop the evaluation framework by selecting a few projects implemented by TERI.Awareness and sensitization of students on waste management, water and energy conservation issues in two Government schools in Delhi
July 7, 2009 to
May 7, 2010
The discussed project aspires to impart knowledge, raise awareness and sensitize a select group of students to make the school premises energy efficient, zero waste zone and conserve water and harvest rainwater. The project will first result in capacity building of these students and slowly reach out to the entire school and other target groups through a multiplier effect. TERI will assist the schools in implementing the project in a sustainable manner, and will conduct all hand holding exercises.Development of an Indicator for Impact of Climate Change Mitigation and Adaptation Strategies on Poverty Alleviation
April 8, 2009 to
April 30, 2010
The proposed study aims to develop an Index that measures the impact of climate change mitigation and adaptation strategies on poverty alleviation. The methodology developed in this study will then also be able to provide direction to assessing the impacts of climate change response strategies on other co-benefits. Thus, the Impact Index can serve as a background resource for decision-makers for policy planning & formulation, and for budgetary allocation.Energy audit of Coke Oven Plant and Water Pumping Station of DPL
January 4, 2010 to
April 30, 2010
The main objectives of the project are to examine the present level of energy consumption of the plant and equipment, to identify the energy saving potentials, and to suggest ways and means to improve the energy efficiency to have a signifcant effect on the economic performance of the plant through the reduction in variable costs.
YUVA Meet 2010
September 1, 2009 to
April 22, 2010
YUVA 2010 is a youth meet to highlight climate change issues and its impact on society at large. The topic being ''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''Understanding Climate Change through the social glass''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''. The meet would seek partiicpation from college students across the globe.Sustainable energy technology at work
April 3, 2006 to
April 22, 2010
The basic idea is to facilitate the entry of European manufactures of sustainable energy technologies and know-how, and European research results - forming the European SET RTD environment - into the emerging markets provided by the EU Emission Trade Scheme (EU ETS). The targeted sustainable energy technologies (SET) are Bio energy (solid biomass incl. biomass CHP, biogas, etc); Wind energy; Solar thermal heating & cooling and solar PV; Small scale hydro power; Geothermal energy; Poly-generation (Trigeneration, CHP, etc).Energy audit of unit auxiliaries at Southern Generating Station (2x67.5 MW) of CESC Ltd
<br>
June 1, 2009 to
April 21, 2010
The project is intended to carry out energy audit of the Southern Generating Station of CESC, Kolkata with the following objectives:- To carry out a detailed performance evaluation of major auxiliaries in the power plant (as defined under scope of work) with a view to identify thrust areas for energy conservation.
- To quantify the extent of energy savings/performance improvement that can be achieved.
- To recommend various technically sound and economically viable measures to improve the end-use energy efficiency.
