About this Project
The Problem
With a rapidly expanding economy and population, India is in dire need of a reliable and sustainable energy supply to facilitate economic growth and mitigate escalating pollution levels. The country is also a major producer and consumer of both dairy and rice, with the dairy industry in particular having a significant impact on global warming.
The Solution
The dairy company Chanakya Dairy Products are lowering their environmental impact by switching their boiling system from fossil fuel to a renewable biomass steam boiler that runs on rice husks.
