In an agriculture-based economy like India, bioenergy has a rich potential of about 25 GW [17, 23], which includes biomass power, bagasse cogeneration, and energy recovery from urban and industrial waste. Bioenergy is an important RE technology based on various by-products from the forest, agriculture, animals, and humans, e.g., firewood, bagasse, crops residue, animal dung, agriculture-based industries’ waste, and waste from various human activity [24]. The bioenergy technology ranges from mature and economical alternatives, like the combustion of forest and agricultural residues, to less mature and/or high-cost alternatives, like biomass gasification or municipal solid waste generators with stringent emissions controls. The adoption of biomass power and bagasse cogeneration-based methodologies in India has been encouraged through various programs and providing various subsidies and incentives [23, 25, 26].
