BAGASSE-BASED CO-GENERATION

India is the largest producer of sugar in the world. And the sugar industry is a highly energy intensive sector. A sugar mill near Meerut, north India utilises the waste bagasse from the sugar-making process to generate electricity for the factory. And in addition, the surplus electricity is supplied to 700 households in the neighbourhood. Since sugar mills are mostly located in remote parts of the country which are not connected with the main power grid, such surplus power generated from waste can help in alleviating the power crisis.
