Energy Generation by Use of Crop Stubble in Punjab
Abstract There is growing interest in alternative uses of field-based residues for energy applications. The use of agriculture waste for generating power is an innovative idea as biomass is a carbon neutral fuel, which helps in reducing the greenhouse effect and global warming. The advantages of utilizing crop residue over and above conventional resources are that the residue is renewable, readily available, and can be used successfully by burning in boilers with an efficiency of 99 %. Further, they are available at low cost relative to coal and their ash contents are also much less as compared to coal. Biomass-based power plants of 10–20 MW capacity setup in a group of villages or every Taluka can meet energy needs of villagers and employ thousands of people. Following the initiatives started by Ministry of New and Renewable Energy, Government of India, Punjab Energy Development Agency (PEDA) has allocated 30 sites/tehsils for setting up plants with a total generation capacity of 337 MW out of which 2–3 plants are already commenced and working successfully. Since the Punjab State Electricity Board (PSEB) is already planning to install additional power generating units based on paddy straw, steps need to be taken to ensure the availability of paddy straw in the respective areas.
