Abstract

Abstract Northwestern India is mainly agrarian produced around 384.25MT/year crop residue out of that 116 MT/year burnt in the field and released lot of pollutants such as CO2, CO, CH4, NOx, NMVOC, PM2.5, PM10 and other which contribute to climate change. In present paper, Introduction of energy and bioenergy in India, estimation of crop residue and bioenergy potential for each state of North-West India is discussed. India generates around 620.27 MT/year crop residues. Northwestern India alone produced 384.25 Mt/year or 62% of India crop residues. Bio-energy potential for northwestern India is 6657.29 PJ per year. States having higher bio-energy potentials are (1) Uttar Pradesh (2020.45 PJ per year), (2) Maharashtra (962.74 PJ per year), (3) Punjab (935.54 PJ per year), (4) Gujarat (598.4 PJ per year) (5) Haryana (610.94 PJ per year), (6) Rajasthan (578.59 PJ per year).The total power demand of India in 2018 was 1212 Twh and bio-fuel potential of northwestern India is 832.16 Twh, which can be satisfy around 68.66 percentage power demand of India annually.
