Green Power



Bagasse is the biomass that is the base for Cogeneration in Sugar Industry.

Biomass is the fiber left over after the juice has been squeezed out of sugarcane stalks. As Biomass can produce more heat energy it is used
as a fuel source  to produce the required  energy for sugar  manufacturing operations. When burned in large quantities, the energy produced
through  Biomass can be  used for the sugar mill  with enough  power to spare.  In this  method, the usage of raw materials is totally averted
and creates Green Power resulting in Greener and Non-polluting Environment.

At RSCL, our bagasse-based cogeneration plants of higher capacities generate 34 MW of “Green Power" and after captive consumption, RSCL
supplies surplus power of 18 MW to the state electricity grid. This translates to an  annual generation of 179 GWh power with sale of 115 GWh
to the state electricity grid.
