Recognizing the importance of inculcating among school children and teachers a sense of respect and responsibility towards energy conservation and its efficient use TERI implemented a pilot project, in 30 elite schools in Delhi, supported by Bureau of Energy Efficiency, Ministry of Power. The target group was so chosen as this segment of society, along with their families and peers, are the major energy consumer defaulters, in contrast to the poorer section of society, which utilize energy only for their basic sustenance. The focus of the project was on two specific areas: ?

Souring of oil wells due to SRB (sulphate reducing bacteria) is a common problem faced by the oil industries and it leads to huge economical losses. Large amount of formation water is generated along with the production of crude oil at the Oil India Ltd. This formation water is reinjected into abandoned oil wells after primary treatment. However, due to the high biomass of SRB in formation water, reinjection is difficult and reinjection leads to souring of the oil wells. The objective of the project is to identify all the species of SRB in formation water and its characterization.

The objective of the project is to demonstrate and disseminate biomass gasifiers that encourage the use of these systems and energy services in the PoP-making industries. Based on the nature of this sector, it is envisaged that biomass gasifiers will be immediately promoted and installed with a joint financial mechanism (support from WISIONS, subsidy from government, and contribution from users). These biomass gasifiers will not only help in improving the energy efficiency but will also help in improving the working environment, productivity, and perhaps, quality of product.

The main objective is to develop a tailor-made gasifier system package for arecanut processing in order to meet the thermal energy requirement for boiling and drying. The package will be field-tested in a selected site for demonstrations along with getting user feedback. This will help in arriving at a user-friendly and acceptable system package for future, large-scale promotion.

The project aims to demonstrate a sustainable model for generation and suppply of electricity using local biomass resources. The village site proposed for the project is one of the remote unelectrified villages of Komna block. The Deodhara village has 6 hamlets, having about 275 households, 2-3 km apart from each other. The project aims to supply electricity to 65 households of Deodhara main village. Initially the project will supply electricity for domestic lighting/street lighting purposes in the evening hours.

the rural poor in developing countries can be made less vulnerable to the adverse impacts of climate change through judicious natural resource management policies and access to risk transfer mechanisms. However, this requires capacity building of policymakers and practitioners not directly dealing with climate change issues. These include finance or agriculture or water ministry officials, insurance regulators, and microfinance institutions.
