Carbon Credit Generation Project by NSL Sugars Ltd. Aland Unit Karnataka, India

This is one of the flagship projects by NSL Group, this project activity is located in the Aland Sugar Unit of NSL in Bhusnoor Village, Aland Taluka in the district of Gulbarga in Karnataka state. The main scope of carbon credits is due to the existing 34 MW bagasse-based co-generation unit at this sugar mill which exports electricity to grid. These scope is well recognized activity under GHG mechanisms due to the reduction of carbon emissions as compared to their respective baseline scenarios viz. displacement of grid electricity with the export power produced & supplied by NSL. Thus, The purpose of the project activity is to utilize available mill generated bagasse effectively for generation of steam and electricity for both in-house consumption and to export surplus electricity to the power grid. The project meets the captive steam and power requirement of sugar unit, co-generation (Cogen) plant auxiliaries and power requirement of the facilities. The balance power is exported to Karnataka Power Transmission Corporation Limited (KPTCL).
