Oil India Limited CMD highlights bamboo-based 2G ethanol plant
At the Advantage Assam 2.0 Summit on Tuesday, Dr Ranjit Rath, Chairman & Managing Director (CMD) of Oil India Limited (OIL), underscored the company’s pioneering efforts in the energy sector, particularly the establishment of a bamboo feedstock-based second-generation (2G) ethanol plant at Numaligarh Refinery Limited(NRL).
This initiative, he emphasized, aligns with Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s vision for import substitution and self-reliance in energy production.
He stated, “This is one of the path-breaking initiatives under which we are doing this. If you recall, the Prime Minister’s clarion call for import substitution, and so bamboo feedstock-based 2G ethanol plant; this will be one of its kind in the whole world. And given that we have a lot of bamboo as a grass.”
