Come join us on Wednesday, March 8 at 9 a.m. Pacific for a one-hour webinar and interactive discussion about the business opportunities and challenges for Canadian pellet producers in India. Registration is free and open to everyone with an interest in learning more about the case for biomass in India.
The Wood Pellet Association of Canada recently completed a trade mission to India and is finalizing a comprehensive report highlighting its key findings and recommendations for those in the pellet and biomass industries.
To reduce greenhouse gas emissions and improve air quality, the Government of India (GOI) mandated biomass co-firing in coal plants. Their ambitious targets include transitioning to 7% co-firing by Oct 2023. The government estimates that this action could save 38 million tonnes of carbon dioxide emissions. To achieve these goals, approximately 35 million tonnes per year of biomass pellets will be needed.
The webinar, hosted by WPAC and its partner Canadian Biomass, will be held on March 8, 9:00 a.m. – 10 a.m. Pacific time. Click here to register. Topics will include:
-
The feasibility of exporting pellets from Canada to India.
-
The opportunity to leverage domestic biomass in India.
-
The potential to form partnerships with local power plants.
-
Development of carbon, capture, utilization and storage in India.
-
Recommendations and next steps for Canada’s biomass producers.
We hope to see you at the event.
