Abstract

Electricity generation through sugarcane bagasse is a extraordinary worth in Pakistan as its exploration through the sugarcane crop can provide food, feed, fuel, fiber, fodder, and fertilizer for future generations. Normally about 0.450MWh of electricity is generated from 1000kg of bagasse through cogeneration technology. Electricity potential of bagasse is estimated about 1598GWh to 2894GWh in Pakistan. The national policy regarding the subject is weighed up from J-tariff in 1990 to present biomass cogeneration policy 2013. Surplus electricity generated through cogeneration technology can be consumed to meet the household-level demands and creation of employment in rural areas. A substantial amount will be available to the factories. It will also help in reduction of green-house effect created by oil based generation.
