CHALLENGES

ADVENT OF GAS NOT AS EXPECTED

TRADITIONAL ELECTRIC EQUIPMENTS

RENEWABLE ENERGY SOURCES NOT PICKED UP

EFFICIENCY IMPROVEMENT ONLY POSSIBLE UPTO A LIMIT

DEMAND SIDE MANAGEMENT & AVAILABILITY

CHEAPER TO OPERATE

3 IDEAS TO DRAMATICALLY CHANGE THE MARKET PLACE

BIOMASS CHILLERS

BIOMASS AMMONIA CHILLERS/EXHAUST WASTE HEAT CHILLERS

SOLAR OPERATED HOT WATER APPLN AND BOILERS.

FOOD STORAGE – THE REALITY TODAY

Lack of adequate storage and processing facilities leads to wastage of an estimated 30-40% of post harvest produce

Existing installed capacity would cater to only 10% of the above output. Moreover most of these are concentrated in the terminal markets while the production centers have been neglectedEven if additional 10% of the estimated wastage could be considered for preservation every year the country would need an additional storage capacity of at least 45 lakh tonnes (which works out to be 1200 – 1500 new units)Tenth plan has identified cold storages as one of the major thrust areas for the development of horticulture sector and has assessed the demand at 15 lakh tonnes (88% in private and the balance in public & co-op sector)

Application

BIOMASS AMMONIA CHILLERS for cold storage on waste heat recovered from Biomass boilers which are being set up for electrification being set up under the National Rural Electrification Scheme.
