Energy & Wetlands Research Group [email protected] [email protected] [email protected] http://ces.iisc.ernet.in/energy/Welcome.html Financial Assistance The Ministry of Environment and Forests Government of India TECHNICAL REPORT NO: 109 November 2005 Centre for Ecological Sciences Indian Institute of Science Bangalore – 560012 BIORESOURCE POTENTIAL OF KARNATAKA [TALUKWISE INVENTORY WITH MANAGEMENT OPTIONS] Ramachandra T.V. and Kamakshi G. Energy & Wetlands Research Group Financial Assistance The Ministry of Environment and Forests Government of India TECHNICAL REPORT NO: 109 November 2005 Centre for Ecological Sciences Indian Institute of Science Bangalore – 560012 Summary Energy is a vital component of any society playing a pivotal role in the development. Post oil crises shifted the focus of energy planners towards renewable resources and energy conservation. Biomass accounts for nearly 33% of a developing country’s energy needs. In India, it meets about 75% of the rural energy needs. In Karnataka, non-commercial energy sources like firewood, agricultural residues, charcoal and cowdung account for 53.2%. The energy released by the reaction of organic carbon (of bioresources) with oxygen is referred as bioenergy. Bioresource availability is highly diversified and it depends on the region’s agro-climatic conditions. Inventorying of these resources is required for describing the quality, quantity, change, productivity, condition of bio resources and requirement in a given area. The present study assesses talukwise bioresource status across the agro-climatic zones of Karnataka, considering the bioenergy availability (from agriculture, horticulture, forests and plantations) and sector-wise energy demand (domestic, agriculture, industry, etc.).
