The sectors selected under this task are:- a. Agriculture Sector. b. Industrial Sector.

  9. Contd.. • By utilizing the SECF, CREDA has started the work of preparation of DPRs on Waste Heat Recovery Systems for 20 industries in Chhattisgarh. • CREDA has undertaken the work of assessment of energy saving through existing waste heat recover systems being already used in industries in the state of Chhattisgarh.

  10. Contd… • CREDA is in process to assess the potential of waste heat recovery projects in the industries of Chhattisgarh State. The potential will be harnessed through waste heat recovery boilers, economizers, recuperators, etc., • CREDA is also in process to prepare waste heat recovery policy for the state of Chhattisgarh so that waste heat recovery schemes may be promoted in the State extensively.

  11. Experience & Future Direction. • BEE has provided grants for SECF (Chhattisgarh) as follows:- a. Preparation of WHR policy - Rs. 20.00 Lacs. b. Preparation of DPRs for WHRS - Rs. 25.00 Lacs. c.

  13. Some suggestions: • Cess (Sub taxes)shall be imposed on all types of fuels being used for process heating in industries and the revenue generated from fuel cess will be used to enrich the Central Energy Conservation Fund, which will promote energy conservation and efficient use of energy. • As Chhattisgarh Govt. is collecting Cess on electricity @ 5 paise per unit and providing a part of Cess to enrich state energy conservation fund other states may also follow the same.
