Description:
The Indian government has set a target to raise the share of gas in the energy mix to 15% by 2030 from the current 6.5%. This move aims to transform India into a gas-oriented economy. Presently, India produces 34,000 million standard cubic meters of gas (MMSCM) but consumes 64,000 MMSCM, resulting in a substantial shortfall of 30,000 MMSCM. This deficit accounts for 47% of the total consumption, which is fulfilled through imports. To address this gap and achieve the nation’s clean energy goals, Compressed Biogas (CBG) can play a vital role by serving as a significant domestic energy source.
The CBG production potential in India is estimated at around 62 million metric tons (Ministry of New and Renewable Energy, MNRE) of which the Sustainable Alternative Towards Affordable Transportation (SATAT) scheme aims to tap 15 million metric tons. Though the government has introduced several policies and initiatives to accelerate the implementation of CBG projects in India, the number of CBG plants currently installed on the ground is only 46. This slow progress can be attributed to the limited dissemination of CBG-related information among potential investors. Therefore, it is essential to disseminate knowledge and impart the right technical skills to the stakeholders.
In this regard, Centre for Science and Environment (CSE) is conducting a 3-day residential training program on “Future fuelCompressed Biogas (CBG): Potential, Technology, Policy, Operation, and Economics”. The high-impact training is designed to provide an end-to-end solution to design and install a CBG plant that aligns with the principle of circular economy, energy transition, and sustainable development.
