3.2.4 Identification of suitable sites for pre-feasibility study
For the purposes of this pre-feasibility study, major energy consuming enterprises were
identified in the following areas: industries (pharmaceutical, chemical, tobacco, edible oil,
pulp and paper, textile processing and spinning, jute) and commercial buildings (hotel,
hospital, cinema hall, housing and shopping complex, office).
Information on their thermal and electrical energy consumption was collected through site
visits and survey using a questionnaire. The selection process was based on screening and
analysis of the energy usage pattern. The energy usage was analyzed in detail before
assessing the pre-feasibility of cogeneration. Results of selected enterprises are presented
in the following section.
