Turning crop residue into fuel for agricultural growth
December 27, 2017 to
December 27, 2017
| Sustainable Agriculture
Crop residue can be turned to a clean energy source for agricultural cold storage if the right mechanisms exist. This can prove to be a potential solution to the large-scale stubble burning in Punjab and Haryana that massively contributes to air pollution in Delhi and other parts of North India every winter.

Reclamation of back filled area of Bauxite mines through afforestation activities at HINDALCO, Lohardaga, Jharkhand
December 27, 2017 to
December 27, 2017
The main aim of the project activity is to develop vegetative cover within the reclaimed backfilled bauxite mine areas in Lohardaga.
Widening the coverage of PAT scheme in subsequent phases by adding new subsectors
December 27, 2017 to
December 27, 2017
The PAT scheme is planned in order to incentivize industry to achieve better energy efficiency improvements than their specified SEC improvement target in a cost-effective manner. Widening the scope to new industrial subsectors will allow more industries to participate in energy efficiency improvement drive.
Concept Paper on Power Generation from Municipal Solid Waste
December 27, 2017 to
December 27, 2017
Proposal for Challenge of Urban Solid Waste through power generation in Karnataka State (KERC) 1.A preliminary assessment of the City solid waste chain and existing supportive policy, legal and management systems; 2.To study the cost structure of existing/operational waste to energy plants and assesses their financial health; 3.The technology in place and technical performance of the existing/operational waste to energy plants in terms of PLF / availability.
Study on the sustainability of Biomass based power generation in Karnataka
December 27, 2017 to
December 27, 2017
To take up the study of KERC on sustainability of bio-mass based power generation in Karnataka. Following are the objectives of the study: To study the cost structure of exisiting plants and assesses their financial health, the technical performance of the existing plants in terms of PLF / availability, the existing arrangement of procuring fuel / assessment of fuel risk in terms of quantum and cost and the proposed arrangement for mitigating the fuel risk in terms of quantum and cost.
Support to Madhya Pradesh Madhya Kshetra Distribution Company Limited (MPMKDCL) in implementing rooftop solar power plants
March 14, 2017 to
December 15, 2017
The MP government has desired the MPMKDCL to support the installation of 10 MW additional rooftop solar plants in the state. Following a MPMKDCL request, the MNRE has sanctioned 10 MW capacity to MPMKDCL and desired the German Development Cooperation to extend its support.
In this effort, TERI is providing consultancy services to the German Development Cooperation to supporting implementation of the rooftop solar power plants in the DISCOM’s network.
