Slide1

Round Table on

Bioenergy

Issues and Options

Summing Up and Policy Recommendations

(

Barriers faced by the

bioenergy

sector in India and policy measures needed for removing these and stimulating development

)Slide2

Biomass supply

Barrier:

Inadequate and uncertain biomass supply and high cost.

Policy measures

:

Augment supply

i

) Energy plantation, including plantation in degraded land;

ii) Create favourable condition for private sector involvement in plantation;

iii) Promote use of residues

by a. involving entrepreneurs /local communities to collect, b. upgrading (bales/briquettes/pellets), c. creating depots and d. training;

iv) Consider ban on field burning of crop residues;

v) Promote biomass use efficiency in household stoves and establishments to save biomass fuels, which can be used for other energy applications.Slide3

Biomass supply

Contd.

vi)

Promote use of biomass briquettes/pellets by waiving off VAT on the product. 

vii) Give monetary incentives to consumers per MJ (or kg) of briquettes or pellets for reducing effective cost and to promote use of these fuels.

viii) Anyone willing to set up a biomass briquette plant should be entitled to hassle-free loan from Public Sector banks.

(Input from Mr.

Nitesh

Rungta

of Sridhar Group, Kolkata)Slide4

ix) Promote MSW use for energy by providing attractive tariff for Power from MSW to promote private sector involvement.

x) Implement model demonstration projects on different technologies for

utilising

MSW (

biomethanation

, gasification,

pyrolysis

, RDF etc.)

xi) Consider ban on open burning/dumping of MSW.

xii) Consider capacity building of officials of corporations and municipalities and expose them to MSW experience in developed countries, e.g. Sweden, Canada etc.Slide5

2.

Biopower

Barriers:

i

) Fuel supply risks, ii) Unattractive Tariff, iii) Faltering RPO scheme, iv) In case of

gasifiers

, specific challenges exist regarding disposal of ash, tar and recycled water.

Policy measures

:

i

) Permission for new

biopower

plants should require long-term fuel supply agreement.

ii) Incentives and tariffs (FIT) should be enough to make private sector involvement attractive.

iii) Support for R&D for minimizing tar in producer gas and associated problems.Slide6

iv) Enforce Renewable Purchase Obligation (RPO)

(RPO is vital for promoting power from RE. Current trend suggests that most states are likely to miss the target, 15% by 2020, by a wide margin.)

3.

Biofuels

Barriers

:

i

) Lack of raw material (ethanol); ii) Lack of high-yielding

Jatropha

seed supply (Biodiesel)

Policy Measures

:

Promote R&D on or Tech Transfer of advanced

biofuels

from cellulosic materials/algae

Promote R&D on or Tech Transfer of biodiesel from high-yielding

Jatropha

and other crops.Slide7

4

.

Improved/advanced stoves

Barriers:

Lack of awareness about health impacts and access to improved/advanced stove designs

High cost of improved/advanced stoves and processed fuels for advanced stoves

Policy measures:

Launch national awareness campaign on health impacts in line with campaign against smoking and to create demand for improved stoves (similar to campaign to promote house toilets in rural areas.)

Introduce incentives for reducing effective costs of stoves and purchased fuels by consumers.Slide8

5. General Barriers

i

) Lack of easy access to technologies developed abroad

ii) Lack of enforcement of targets for

biopower

,

biofuel

, RPO etc.

iii) Lack of coordination among ministries, departments and agencies.

iv) Low electrical load in rural areas.

v) High interest rate for bank loans in

bioenergy

sector.

vi) Lack of effective CO2 control strategy.

Policy measures

Facilitate transfer of technologies not available in the country.Slide9

Introduce enforcement mechanism/fix responsibility for meeting national

bioenergy

targets.

Consider single window for promoting private sector involvement.

Create electrical load as part of rural development

programmes

.

limit interest rate to 10% or at Priority Sector levels

Impose carbon tax on all fossil fuels (not just coal, R 50/t)
