摘要

Foundry is one of the most energy-intensive manufacturing processes. A large amount of energy is consumed in the melting operation. Adoption of energy efficient melting technologies by foundries is a win-win option. Improvements in energy efficiency not only reduce energy costs, but also have the potential of generating additional revenues through sale of carbon credits. Seeking carbon credits by developing appropriate Clean Development Mechanism (CDM) projects based on energy efficiency improvements promises to be a win-win option for Indian foundries. While the primary benefit of the CDM project would be the savings in energy, additional revenues through sale of Certified Emission Reductions (CERs) could help in improving the project returns. This paper discusses a few options to improve energy efficiency of the melting operation. It also describes the process for acquiring carbon credits by registering a CDM project. High transactions costs involved in developing CDM projects are usually a barrier, especially among small and medium scale industries. 'Bundling', or bringing together, of small projects in different companies to form a single CDM project is permissible if the projects belong to the same type. The industry associations are probably the best suited to play this the role of a bundler. Proactive efforts of industry associations would help in initiating CDM projects especially among the small and medium scale foundry units. The exercise is being done at Belgaum Foundry Cluster wherein the execution of concept is encouraging.
