SUPER HYBRID NAPIER GRASS FOR CNG AND IT’S CULTIVATION PRACTICES-Dr. P. C. Patel

Why government of India give more emphasis in Bio CNG?
1. Clean and Green Fuel: Bio-CNG is a “clean and eco-friendly”fuel that contributes to the objectives of initiatives like **Swachh Bharat (Clean India)**.
2. “Atmanirbhar Bharat (Self-Reliant India)”: By promoting Bio-CNG, India aims to reduce its dependence on “imported fossil fuels”. This aligns with the vision of self-reliance.
3. “Make in India”: The production and utilization of Bio-CNG support the “Make in India” campaign by fostering domestic production and innovation.
4. “Strengthening the Rural Economy”: Bio-CNG plants create employment opportunities in rural areas, thus contributing to rural development.
5. “Organic Farming”: Bio-CNG production utilizes organic waste as feedstock. This indirectly supports organic farming practices.
6. “Reducing Carbon Emissions”: Bio-CNG engines emit “40% less carbon dioxide” compared to natural gas engines, aiding in India's efforts to combat climate change.
7. “Net Zero Emission Target”: The adoption of Bio-CNG contributes to achieving the goal of “net-zero carbon emissions”.
8. “Reducing Fossil Fuel Imports”: India imports about “50% of its compressed natural gas (CNG)” needs. Bio-CNG can help reduce this dependence on imports.
