The seminar has been organized\u00a0<a name=\"_Hlk176436205\"><\/a>by\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.nibe.res.in\/\">Sardar Swaran Singh National Institute of Bio-Energy Technology (SSS-NIBE)<\/a>, Kapurthala, an autonomous institution of\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/mnre.gov.in\/\">the Ministry of New and Renewable Energy<\/a>, Government of India. The seminar\u00a0seeks to foster collaboration and knowledge exchange to facilitate the development of cost-effective and efficient\u00a0biomass supply chains\u00a0to support India&#8217;s transition to a circular bio-economy. It brought together government officials, industry representatives, entrepreneurs, policy makers and researchers to share insights, experiences, and best practices in biomass supply chain management.\u00a0The seminar aims to highlight the need and particular relevance of efficient biomass supply chains for the success of bioenergy programs in the country.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The event was inaugurated by\u00a0the Chief Guest and Mission Director,\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/samarth.powermin.gov.in\/\">SAMARTH (Sustainable Agrarian Mission on use of Agri-Residue in Thermal Power Plants)<\/a>, Ministry of Power, Government of India, Shri Satish Upadhyay; Guest of Honour and Executive Director, Punjab State Council for Science &amp; Technology\u00a0(PSCST), Government of Punjab, Shri Pritpal Singh; and\u00a0Director General, SSS-NIBE, Dr. G. Sridhar.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Director General, MGSIPA, Shri Anirudh Tewari, with his extensive experience in stubble management policies and practices, graced the event and shared his valuable insights with the participants.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong>\u201cNeed to view Biomass Supply Chain Management from Demand Side\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">In his talk, the Chief Guest and Mission Director, SAMARTH, Shri\u00a0Satish Upadhyay, highlighted that there is a need to view supply chain management from the demand-side and spoke on the importance of enhancing demand creation for the development of market-driven mechanisms for the offtake of biomass. He also mentioned that biomass utilisation has critical environmental and social benefits for our country. He informed the participants about the successful work being done by the SAMARTH Mission for biomass co-firing and how it is increasing utilisation of biomass in power generation.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong>\u201cNeed to use Modern Bioenergy Pathways to harness potential of Biomass\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Guest of Honour and Executive Director,\u00a0PSCST, Shri Pritpal Singh\u00a0highlighted that\u00a0availability of space for storage of biomass, supply to industry and management of leakage are some challenges which need to be addressed. He stressed that we should collectively work on harnessing the potential of biomass, and on utilising it through modern bioenergy pathways, rather than wasting it. He said that there is a need to make biomass available at the minimum possible cost, so that it is economically viable for industry.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong>\u201cSupply Chain Management is Critical for Success of Bioenergy Programmes\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Director General, SSS-NIBE, Dr. G. Sridhar\u00a0highlighted the relevance and importance of biomass supply chains in the country. He also apprised the participants about the research SSS-NIBE is doing in the field of bio-energy, for advancement of the sector. He stressed how supply chain management is critical for the successful implementation of bioenergy programs in the country.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Mr Maganbir Singh from PSCST delivered a talk on\u00a0paddy challenge in the state of Punjab. He highlighted the activities of PSCST, the current paddy utilisation pathways in Punjab, the challenges faced in its utilisation and opportunities available to use it as a resource.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The day-long seminar will have sessions exploring various facets of the challenges and opportunities associated with the efficient management of biomass supply chains in the country.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/static.pib.gov.in\/WriteReadData\/userfiles\/image\/image001L255.jpg\" alt=\"\" \/><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong>About SSS-NIBE<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Sardar Swaran Singh National Institute of Bio-Energy (SSS-NIBE) is an autonomous institute of the Ministry of New and Renewable Energy (MNRE), Government of India.
