About the Convention
Dear Friends,
The global warming and climate change agenda in the
world is looking for green energy alternatives which can
reduce greenhouse gases emission. Biogas technologies
have proved to be a ray of hope for resolving the waste
management and solving energy problems in rural areas.
Over last three decades biogas plants played an important
role in Indian villages by providing rural energy needs and
bio–fertilizer. However, with the advancement of lifestyle
even in rural areas the aspirations of rural people are
skyrocketing. Most of the villages have cattle but the dung
is being used mostly for making dung cakes for burning as
fuel or as organic manure in an inefficient manner. Thus,
there is utmost need to address these issues in a focused
manner. Biogas offers an important solution to the present
energy crisis in rural area. Besides being a clean and
important source of energy for cooking it is an
environmentally green and clean technology.
This national convention will make an attempt towards
preparing policy on national level for installation of 10
million biogas plants across the country including all sized
biogas plants to draw attention of policy makers and the
users for the greater use of biogas as cooking and vehicular
fuel along with electrical power generation applications.
Looking forward for your participation in the event.
Yours Sincerely
Professor Virendra Kumar Vijay
