Hanuman Agro’s: 2.5 MW Cogeneration Plant Using Rice Husk

Hanuman Agro Industries Limited (HAIL), established in 1994, focuses on Paper & Power Generation, utilizing both conventional and non-conventional fuels.

Utilizing Waste Biomass

The project’s aim is to efficiently harness unused biomass resources for electricity generation. This ‘carbon neutral fuel’ based cogeneration plant operates on rice husk, producing 2.5 MW of electricity and steam, reducing reliance on the Indian grid.

Environmental Impact

In addition to electricity generation, the project significantly reduces coal consumption for steam production, minimizing harmful emissions. Its rural location enhances local sustainable development, aligning with India’s sustainability pillars.

Social Well-being

Employment opportunities are created for skilled and unskilled workers, bolstering local economies. Utilizing agro waste fosters economic growth, while addressing electricity demand at both local and national levels.

Economic Well-being

The demand for rice husk increases, benefiting rice millers and local farmers financially. By saving coal and HSD (High-Speed Diesel), resources are redirected to other sectors, boosting economic activity.

Environmental Well-being

As a renewable energy project, it utilizes locally sourced waste biomass, contributing to clean power generation and reducing environmental impact.

Technology Well-being

Adopting advanced and sustainable technology ensures long-term benefits and aligns with environmental and economic objectives.

Promoting Sustainable Development

Hanuman Agro’s cogeneration plant exemplifies sustainable development principles, fostering economic, social, and environmental well-being while utilizing innovative technology.
