TP Renewable Microgrid (TPRMG), a wholly subsidiary of Tata Power, today inaugurated its first 5kW bio-gas generating plant at Kamalpura in Bihar.

The plant, which commenced operations on December 14 this year on the 'National Energy Conservation Day,' has been constructed in association with Grassroots Energy.

Speaking on this occasion, Praveer Sinha, CEO & MD, Tata Power, said, “we are constructively moving ahead with our agenda to be the foremost renewable energy company of India and continue to support the nation to achieve its green energy goals.” 

The plant consumes cow dung which is procured from nearby villages and then it is processed through a Bio-digester to generate methane gas. This gas is then used to drive a specially designed 5kW generator to generate electricity which is fed to the adjoining 30kW microgrid generating station. 

TPRMG's focus now lies on developing and commissioning its bio CNG plant in rural part of India, the company said.
