The project aims at developing and implementing bio-energy technology packages to reduce Greenhouse Gas (GHG) emissions and to promote a sustainable and participatory approach to meeting rural energy needs.

In recent years in India, urbanization continues to progress and the number of registered cars and motorcycles increase dramatically. As a result, the traffic congestion in urban areas has become a serious problem.

In large cities like Delhi and Kolkata, traffic congestion accompanying the increase in road traffic demands has become a serious issue, accelerating economic loss and health hazards caused by atmospheric contamination, noise and other forms of vehicle-related pollution.

The main objective of the Project was to promote energy efficiency in the energyintensive industries in India.

Indian Renewable Energy Development Agency Limited (IREDA) was incorporated in March 1987, under the Companies Act, 1956, as a specialized financial institution, wholly owned by the Government, primarily for promoting, developing, and financing new and renewable sources of energy (NRSE) technolog

The Renewable Resources Development Project objectives are to promote commercialization of renewable energy technologies by strengthening the capacity of the Indian Renewable Energy Development Agency (IREDA) to promote and finance entrepreneurial investments in alternate energy; create marketing

In December 1994, the Asian Development Bank (ADB) approved the Industrial Energy Efficiency Project (IEEP) to promote energy efficiency in Indian industry, consistent with ongoing market-oriented reforms in the country.The Project was intended to support financially viable investments leading to

This SO focused on global climate change, addressed through reducing greenhouse gases (GHG) in power generation facilities, industry, the transport sector, municipal services and end use efficiencies.
