Domestic Biogas Project for rural households in India
Domestic Biogas Project for rural households in India
"The project activity involves bundling 14,636 housefold biogas plants located in Madhya Pradesh, Uttarakhand, Bihar and Jharkhand of varying capacities – 2m3, 3m3, 4m3 and 6m3. All 14,636 plants are commissioned from January 2017 onwards. The biogas plants are of deenbandhu model. The purpose of the project is to replace the commonly used inefficient wood fired mud stoves technology, with clean, sustainable and efficient biogas.
Each household utilizes cow dung to feed the digester for the production of biogas for cooking purpose and heating water. This leads to reduction of greenhouse gas emissions by displacing conventionally used non renewable biomass with renewable biogas. In addition, the hygienic conditions in the rural areas will be improved by an appropriate disposal of waste. Further, residue from the bio digesters can be used as organic fertilizer and will improve soil conditions in rural areas. Project activity will contribute towards sustainable development by replacing firewood with biogas generated from the biodigesters."
