‘Little progress in use of biomass by power plants’
NEW DELHI: The 11 coal-based power plants in the Delhi-NCR region have made little progress in using biomass or agricultural residue pellets as co-burning fuel for electricity generation, a study of the Centre for Science and Environment (CSE) has shown.
Co-burning or co-firing is the technique of incorporating a secondary fuel, like biomass, with a primary fuel like coal in the same combustion equipment in a power plant.
There are 11 coal-based power plants in Delhi-NCR.
