During the visit to the Punjab Energy Development Agency (PEDA) green

building in Chandigarh on 8th February 2016, the trip took almost 6 hours to reach

from the hotel in Delhi. The three hours in PEDA green building, full with the

informative demonstration of the green concepts applied and net metering is a new

policy implementation has been introduced. This report describes in details the

overall trip at PEDA green building in Punjab and the information of each concept.

1970s energy crisis led to the establishment of the Commission for Additional

Sources of Energy (CASE) in the Department of Science & Technology (India) in

March 1981. The CASE was responsible for the formulation of policies and their

implementation, creation of programmes for development of new and renewable

energy and coordinating and intensifying R&D in the sector.

In 1982, a new department was created in the then Ministry of Energy, i.e.,

Department of Non-conventional Energy Sources (DNES). DNES incorporated

CASE under its umbrella.

7
Welcome to Punjab Energy Development Agency

Punjab Energy Development Agency was formed in Sept. 1991 as a state nodal

agency for promotion and development of renewable energy programmes/projects

and energy conservation programme in the state of Punjab. PEDA is registered as a

Society under the Societies Act of 1860.

8
Punjab Energy Development Agency

All the programmes/projects are monitored as per MNRE, GOI guidelines

circulated along with the programme/project implementation

sanction/guidelines. Monitoring of each programme/project is carried out by

the field staff as well as from PEDA head office. Programme evaluation and

reporting to MNRE is in accordance with the reporting formats/performas of

MNRE, GOI, both for physical as well as financial evaluation.

PEDA is setting different NRSE devices/System through its dealer network

established at the distt./block level. In addition a chain of private dealer has

also been set up for providing these services to the beneficiaries in the state.

Self Employed Workers have been trained for promoting the use of various

NRSE devices/systems as well as after sale/installation services to the

people in their area of operation.

Most of the renewable energy programmes are being implemented with

directions/control from the Head Office with field officers at district level

performing the function of supervising and implementation of the

programmes in the rural areas.Major thrust has been given to provide

facilities to the private developers by PEDA for the development of

renewable energy projects in the state. New and Renewable Sources of Energy

Policy-2012 (NRSE) has been formulated and approved recently by the state govt.

9
for implementation in the state, which provides for a greater degree of private sector

participation in the development of the renewable energy potential in the state.

As per our new NRSE policy 2006, PEDA shall be the nodal agency for providing

single window clearance to private developers for NRSE projects and shall

coordinate and interact with various govt. departments/organisations for providing

the various clearances. The renewable energy policy has provided for a single

window clearance mechanism as per which an empowered committee has been

constituted for providing clearance and approval for new projects. The details of the

approval of the clearance procedure have been incorporated in this p olicy.

PEDA has been laying special emphasis on tapping international funding for

developing renewable energy projects in the state. Efforts made by PEDA in this

area have yielded considerable results in the shape of setting up of renewable energy

power generation projects.

LARGE CAPACITY BIOGAS PLANTS

(i) DESIGN OF LARGE CAPACITY BIOGAS PLANTS

A large capacity biogas plant (New Modified PAU Janta Model Biogas Plant) has

been developed by Punjab Agricultural University to cater the needs of dairy

farmers. This, essentially, is a "Janta" design but of higher capacity. The gas-holder

is hemispherical in shape and is structurally safe & crack-resistant. The

construction of this type of plant is easy and is not very different from the method

for the Deenbandhu Biogas Plant. The details of New Modified PAU Janta Model

Biogas Plant are shown in figure- I and the dimensions of different sized biogas

plants are shown in table 1. The capacity wise detail of different capacity of Biogas

Plants for power generation is detailed as per table 2.

Energy Conservation
Energy is a basic requirement for economic development in almost all major

sectors of Indian economy - agriculture, industry, transport, commercial, and

residential (domestic). Consequently, consumption of energy in different forms of

energy has been steadily rising all over the country and more so in states like

Punjab has maintained a steady growth pattern in the past and the trend is likely to

continue in future as well. This has increased the dependence of the state on fossil

fuels and electricity.

Energy efficiency has gradually emerged from being an advocacy subject to a

powerful, cost-effective, and environment-friendly policy tool to narrow the

widening supply-demand gap facing the nation today. As per the Integrated Energy

Report, energy conservation programs, if designed and executed properly, can

obviate the need for 25,000 MW additional generation capacity. Energy

conservation potential for the economy as a whole has been assessed as 23% with

maximum potential in Industrial and Agricultural Sectors (Planning Commission,

Govt of India, August 2006).

Energy Saving in Different Ways

40
Clean Development Mechanism

DESIGNATED STATE AGENCY (SDA):

Punjab Energy Development Agency (PEDA) is Designated as a Nodal Agency to

Carbon Credits and Clean Development Mechanism for eligible Projects within the

state vide Punjab Government Notification No 8/21/2005 STE (1)/1578 Dated

26.4.2006. What is Clean Development Mechanism:

India is a party to the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate change

(UNFCCC) and the objective of the Convention is to achieve stabilization of

greenhouse gas concentration in the atmosphere at a level that would prevent

41
dangerous anthropogenic interference with the climate system. To strengthen the

developed country commitements under the Convention, the parties adopted Kyoto

Protocol in 1997, which commits developed country Parties to return their

emissions of greenhouse gases to an average of approximately 5.2% below 1990

levels over the period 2008-12.

The Kyoto protocol provides for quantified emission limitations and reduction

commitement for the developed countries and mechanisms to facilitate compliance

with these targets, reporting and review and it lists six greenhouse gases – carbon

dioxide (CO2) , Methane (CH4), Nitrous Oxide (N2O), Hydrofluorocarbons

(HFCs), Perfluorocarbons (PFCs) and Sulphur hexafluoride (SF6) India acceded to

the Kyoto Protocol in August 2002 and one of the objectives of acceding was to

fulfill prerequisites for implementation of Clean Development Mechanism

(hereinafter referred to as CDM) projects, in accordance with national sustainable

priorities, where- under, a developed country would take up greenhouse gas

reduction project activities in developing countries where the costs of greenhouse

gas reduction project activities are usually much lower with the purpose to assist

developed country parties in achieving compliance with their quantified emission

limitation and reduction commitements.

42
Carbon Credit:

In addition to the burning of fossil fuels, major industry sources of green house gas

emissions are cement, steel, textile, and fertilizer manufactures. The main gases

emitted by these industries are methane , nitrous oxide, hydroflurocarbons, etc,

which increase the atmosphere's ability to trap infrared energy..

For trading purposes, one credit is considered equivalent to one tonne of CO2

emissions. Such a credit can be sold in the international market at the prevailing

market price. There are two exchanges for carbon credits: the Chicago Climate

Exchange and the European Climate Exchange.

Mechanism of availing Carbon Credits:

The concept of carbon credit trading seeks to encourage countries to reduce their

GHG emissions, as it rewards those countries which meet their targets and

provides financial incentives to other to do so as quickly as possible. Surplus

credits (collected by overshooting the emission reduction target) can be sold in the

global market. One credit is equivalent to one tonne of CO2 emission reduced. CC

are available for companies engaged in developing renewable energy projects that

offset the use of fossil fuel. Developed countries have to spend nearly $300-500 for

every tonne reduction in CO2, against $10-$25 to be spent by developing

countries. In countries like India, GHG emission. On the contrary, they are entitled

to sell surplus credits to developed countries. It is here that trading takes place.

43
 Foreign companies who cannot fulfil the protocol norms can buy the surplus credit

from companies in order countries through trading.

Thus, the stage is set for Credit Emission Reduction (CER) trade to flourish. India

is considered as the largest beneficiary, claiming about 31% of the total world

carbon trade through the Clean Development Mechanism (CDM), which is

expected to rake in at least $5-10bn over a period of time.

List of activities eligible for availing Carbon Credits:

 Afforestation & reforestation Projects.

 Agri-biomass based Energy Projects.

 Bio-methanation : Power Generation route: Organic Fertilizer

 Energy Generation by controlled combustion

 Wastewater Projects: Methane Capture : Methane Capture & Flaring : Organic

Fertiliser

 Wastewater cum solid waste treatement ; methane capture : power generation

 Avoidance of methane and nitrous oxide emission from paddy fields

 Household level biogas plants treating organic farmyard, Kitchen, and biowastes

 Solar Energy

 Special Manure making practices

44
What is Kyoto Protocol:

The Kyoto Protocol provides for three mechanisms that enable developed countries

with quantified emission limitation and reduction commitements to acquire

greenhouse gas reduction credits. These mechanisms are joint implementation (JI),

Clean Development Mechanism (CDM) and international Emission Trading

(IET).

Under JI a developed country with relatively high costs of domestic greenhouse

reduction would set up a project in another developed country that has a relatively

low cost. Under CDM, a developed country where the cost of greenhouse gas

reduction project activities are usually much lower. The developed country would

be given credits for meeting its emission reduction targets,while the developing

country would receive the capital and clean technology to implement the project.

Under IET, countries can trade in the international carbon credits market.

Countries with surplus credits can sell them to countries with quantified emission

limitation and reduction commitements under the Kyoto Protocol.

The Kyoto Protocol to the united Nations Framework Convention on Climate

Change is an amendment to the international treaty on climatechange, assigning

mandatory emission limitations for the reduction of greenhouse gas emissions to

the signatory nations.

45
The objective is the "stabilization of greenhouse gas concentrations in the

atmosphere at a level that would prevent dangerous anthropogenic interference

with the climate system."

As of December 2006, a total of 169 countries and other governmental entities

have ratified the agreement (representing over 61.6% of emissions fron Annex I

countries) Notable exceptions include the united states and Australia. Other

countries, like India and China, which have ratified the protocol, are not required

to reduce carbon emissions under the present agreement.

There is still some debate about the usefulness of the protocol, and there have been

some cost-benefit studies performed.

MASS AWARENESS AND PUBLICITY PROGRAMME

The development and application of New and Renewable Sources of Energy has

undisputedly become an integral part of the development plans of all the

Governments world over. The day by day depleting and limited fossil fuels and

other conventional sources of energy has left us with no other option than to go for

quick and large scale adoption and development of new and renewable sources of

energy. The new and renewable sources of energy, being relatively new concepts,

are encountering social and psychological barriers in their acceptance on the part

of large masses as a whole. Mass- Awareness and Publicity programmes can play

an important role for promoting our NRSE Programmes with liberal financial

support being provided by the Ministry of New & Renewable Energy, Govt. of

India. With a view to achieve the above objective, PEDA has been running Mass-

Awareness and Publicity programme in a big way since its very inception in 1991

and our efforts in this field have been recognized and appreciated at national level.

The main objectives of this Programme are; To introduce the people to these

relatively new concepts of

 new and renewable sources of energy. To make the people aware of the benefits

of the adoption .

 the renewable energy devices.

52
To impart information regarding operation and maintenance of various renewable

energy devices. D:\pedaweb\peda\eng\Data\pdfs\MAP_progress_report.doc To

give information regarding subsidies and incentives

 being given by government under various new and renewable energy

programmes. To give information regarding how and where to buy

 renewable energy devices. PEDA recognizes the importance of the role of

publicity, thus has been running Mass Awareness & Publicity Programme in top

gear since its very inception in 1991. Our efforts in this field have been well

recognized and appreciated at national level. PEDA has been awarded the National

Best Performance Award for five times. The main activities undertaken by Mass

Awareness & Publicity cell under this programme are; To organise NRSE

exhibitions at important public places,

Bio Fuel

PROGRAMME OF BIO FUEL :

The Ministry of New & Renewable Energy, GOI is the nodal Ministry for overall

coordination relating to biofuel and preparation of National Policy for the same.

For the promotion of biofuel production in the state, Punjab Energy Development

Agency (PEDA) has been designated as state nodal agency to coordinate the

activities related to Bio fuel production, policies to coordinate with different

departments / agencies in the state. Further a committee of officers of different

departments / corporations under the Chairmanship of Secretary, Science,

Technology & Environment is also constituted to hold review at period intervals :

Secretary, Deptt. of Science, Technology, Environment & Non-conventional

Energy.

61
 Director, Rural Development & Panchayat

 Managing Director, Punjab Agro Industries Corporation

 Chief Conservator of Forests

 Managing Director, Sugarfed

 Director, Agriculture

 Spl. Secy/Addl. Secretary, Power

 Director, School of Energy Studies, Punjab Agriculture University, Ludhiana

 Chief Executive, Punjab Energy Development Agency

 Director, Punjab Energy Development Agency

The Govt. of India has constituted Group of Ministers headed by Agriculture

Minister to finalise a national olicy on bio fuels which aims to set a target of

meeting 10% of total transport fuel with bio fuels by 2017. The policy is open to

62
changes, but estimates suggested that 12 million hectares of land would have to be

brought under Bio Fuel crops to meet the target. The policy would also create a

National Bio Fuel board to spearhead the development of those fuels

India already has 60,000 hectares under Jatropha Plantation in Andhra Pradesh,

Rajasthan, Madhya {Pradesh and Chattisgarh which would provide 0.3-0.5 billion

litres of bio-diesel. India is also keen on using bio fuels not only for production of

fuel but also electrification.
