The NITI Aayog has proposed a plan to address the issues of stubble burning and energy requirement of farmers of Haryana and Punjab. It has suggested deployment of “mobile methanol manufacturing vans” in paddy fields (post-harvest) to produce methanol and supply it to farmers for use as fuel to run tractors, water pumps and generators. IIT-Kanpur and NIT-Trichy have built “mobile methanol manufacturing vans” on a pilot basis. These can be manufactured on a commercial basis and deployed in the fields so as to tackle the twin-problem of environmental pollution on account of stubble burning and meeting the energy requirement of farming community.
Methanol economy fund: Niti Aayog, the government's policymaking body, will soon move a Cabinet note outlining the roadmap for a methanol mission for India through a Rs 5,000-crore methanol economy fund to kickstart generation of this alternate energy source from January 1, 2018. The idea is to have an installed capacity of three-four million tonnes of methanol in the next five-eight years to help replace 50% of the fossil fuel requirement of the country. The fund will be used to set up coalbased methanol producing plants.
