Eligibility Conditions |
Projects based on:
- Any bio-waste from urban, agricultural, industrial/agro – industrial sector (excluding bagasse).
- Co-generation/power generation and production of bio-CNG from biogas.
- Municipal solid waste based projects selected through transparent competitive procedure.
Other conditions:
- Mixing of other renewable wastes, including rice husk, bagasse, sewage, cow-dung, other biomass and industrial effluents (excluding distillery effluents) will be permissible.
- In MSW to power projects, any waste of renewable nature or biomass can be mixed to the extent of 25%, based on gross calorific value. Use of maximum 25% of conventional fuels would be allowed in biomass co-generation (non-bagasse) projects based on agricultural wastes and residues, excluding bagasse.
- Projects for generation of power from biogas will be based either on 100% biogas engines or steam turbines with a minimum steam pressure of 42 bar.
- Projects based on waste-to-energy conversion technologies, namely, bio methanation, combustion, gasification, pyrolysis or a combination thereof.
- Projects based on biomethanation of MSW should be taken up only on segregated/uniform waste unless it is demonstrated that in Indian conditions, the waste segregation plant/process can separate waste suitable for biomethanation.
· There will be no minimum/maximum limit on capacity of projects supported under this programme, except that cattle dung-based power generation projects of up to 250 kW capacity will not be considered under this programme.
|
Implementing and Monitoring Agency |
- Implemented by state nodal agencies, urban local bodies/municipal corporations, private and public sector enterprises and organizations as well as NGOs including energy service companies (ESCOs).
- State nodal agencies will closely monitor project execution and provide guidance for its timely completion, in addition to submitting periodic progress reports to MNRE.
- MNRE may also monitor the progress of project implementation and performance through a monitoring committee consisting of representatives from MNRE, financial institution(s)/banks, technical institutions and state nodal agencies.
