India’s Biomass Sector on Boom — The Green Energy Transformation Has Begun

 🌱

 

 

India’s renewable energy landscape is witnessing a remarkable transformation — and at the heart of it lies the biomass revolution. With the Supreme Court and Central Government issuing strict directives to curb paddy straw (parali) burning, the spotlight is now firmly on biomass utilization as a sustainable, scalable, and profitable energy solution.

 

 

🔥 The Urgent Need for Action

 

 

Every year, millions of tons of agricultural residues — including paddy straw, mustard husk, cotton stalk, sugarcane trash, and sawdust — are burned in open fields, releasing massive amounts of carbon dioxide, particulate matter, and methane into the atmosphere. This not only pollutes the air but also depletes soil fertility and impacts public health.

 

Recognizing the urgency of the problem, the Supreme Court has directed both Central and State Governments to accelerate measures that provide farmers with an alternative to burning crop residue. One of the most effective and scalable alternatives is the conversion of agro-waste into biomass pellets.

Government & NTPC Initiatives: The Big Demand Push

 

 

To promote clean energy adoption, NTPC (National Thermal Power Corporation) and other major thermal plants in India are now mandated to blend at least 5% biomass pellets with coal for power generation.

 

This single policy has created a massive market opportunity. India currently requires over 1,00,000 tons of biomass pellets every day, while only 30,000 tons per day are being produced — leaving a demand-supply gap of nearly 70%.

 

This gap represents not a challenge but a golden opportunity for entrepreneurs, industries, and investors to participate in the green fuel revolution.

Why Biomass Pellets Are the Future of Energy

 

 

• Carbon-Neutral Fuel: Biomass pellets are renewable and eco-friendly, reducing greenhouse gas emissions significantly.
• Rural Employment: Creates thousands of jobs in collection, processing, and logistics.
• Soil Health Protection: Prevents stubble burning and enhances long-term soil fertility.
• Industrial Demand: High calorific value makes pellets ideal for boilers, furnaces, and co-firing in power plants.
• Government Backing: Supported under Samarth Mission and Revised Biomass Utilization Policy by MNRE.
