Enviro Energy Enterprises

1.We will adopt franchisees model where funding and technology will be provided to the local entrepreneurs.
2.EEE will monitor the development of the project and will develop and improve the technology will responsible for applying Carbon credits for the project.
3.Business unit will run in pre assigned areas that will cover area of 200 kms.
4.Each unit will be self contained with the biomass and end users of biomass in institutional kitchens, small scale industries replacing fossil fuel.
5.Each unit will produce 15K-20K ton of briquettes, generating approx. 25-30K of CERs.
6.For timely delivery and network of biomass, each unit will develop approx. 10 biomass collection centers covering around 40-50 villages and each collection center will be run by micro entrepreneur and will have approx. 50 people, mostly women to collect biomass.
7.Additional income from Carbon credit will be used for supporting the business, improve the technology and for providing training and raising awareness for using clean-energy technology. Several other options such as adapting small-scale biomass gasifier technology for power generation, biodigestors, small hydro projects based on the economic viability and environmental sustainability will be considered after the first phase is successfully implemented.

•There are various kinds of labor work requirements, which would generate rural employment opportunities on regular and permanent basis. This includes biomass collection, production of briquettes, more income opportunities for local transporters and distribution of briquettes and production of cooking stoves.
•This project helps to decrease the dependency on fossil fuels and the risk of rising prices.
•Total expected rural employment to be generated o Direct:15 semi-skilled workers for one plant oIndirect:250 – 300 low-skilled workers for collection of biomass.
•Replacing fossil fuels into renewable fuels in the brick kilns and boilers.
•Uses of renewable fuels in the cooking stove, increase the life and health of working women.
•Income generating through biomass collection
•As we have network of SHG’s through that awareness training program can be organized.
•Distribution of small chulha where we will put the cost as low as possible, from collected biomass they can keep 15-20% for their fuel usage. They time they used to spend on in wood collection is now used for biomass collection.

The demand for fuel briquettes comes from the shortage of conventional fuels such as coal, oil, firewood etc. and their escalating prices. There is a crying-need for an economical and renewable source of energy. The gap between demand and supply is very wide and the country has been facing a chronic coal shortage for several years.

Depletion of forest resources and rampant use of firewood in rural areas has reduced the availability of woody biomass. Thus, briquetted fuel using renewable wastes, generated every year is an ideal, future fuel.

Briquetted fuel can be used by the industrial, commercial and household sectors. It is ideally suited for use in the following areas.
•Boilers: sugar mills, paper mills, chemical plants, dyeing houses, food processing units, oil extraction units, Vanaspati units etc. using fuel for steam generation & heating.
•Brick Kilns & Ceramic Units: for firing of furnaces.
•Linkage fuel programme with Smokeless Stoves.
•Residential & Commercial Heating: For winter heating in cold areas and in restaurants, canteens etc.
•Gasification: Use of fuel briquettes for biogas have shown very encouraging results and can be used to drive engines, generating sets, and may eventually replace coal based producer gas systems and oil firing in furnaces.

One of the most important advantages of this fuel is that it can be produced in any part of the country and can contribute substantially to the development of the rural economy.

Excessive use of fuel wood is also exerting pressure on the regions forest cover. Although large quantities of surplus biomass residues are available in India. The non-availability of suitable cost effective methods and technologies for utilizing biomass residues for industries has resulted in gross underutilization and neglect of biomass residues as a potential energy source in this sector. The project contributes to promote renewable energies in general and the use of biomass in particular. The project would provide stable, alternative and quality source of energy to the industry boilers and this will reduce their operating expenses.

Enviro Energy Enterprises will monitor the development of the project and will develop and improve the technology responsible for applying Carbon credits for the project.
