Distilleries to set up bio-mass power plants
Staff Reporter
ARANTHANGI: EMPEE Distilleries Limited here is all set to make its foray into power generation.
The company will install bio-mass based power plants in the State. As a first step, it has got the approval of the Tamil Nadu Energy Development Agency (TEDA) to set up a 10 MW project at its plant in Koothadivayal village, near here, in Pudukkottai district. The plant will be commissioned in February, according to S. Pandiarajan, manager (power projects).
Chairman-cum-managing director of the company M.P. Purushothaman and Rajya Sabha MP Su. Tirunavukkarasar will participate in a function to mark the firing of the boiler at the distilleries’ campus on Sunday.
Once the plant goes on stream, “the firm will purchase a huge quantity of locally available firewood particularly Julia Flora available in and around Aranthagi. This will ensure sustained opportunity for the villagers to market the firewood.”
The plant will offer direct employment to about 150 persons and indirect employment to about 1,000.
