Uttar Pradesh Electricity Regulatory Commission (UPERC) has advocated the idea of making energy co-generation mandatory for all upcoming sugar mills.
Speaking as chief guest at a programme organised by North Indian Sugarcane and Sugar Technologists’ Association (NISSTA) here yesterday, UPERC chairman Desh Deepak Verma laid stress to encourage generation of bagasse-based green energy generation by mills. Bagasse is a sugar byproduct and is commonly used as fuel to produce thermal energy.
