Client:
DG Khan Cement Company Limited (DGKCCL)
From April 2010 to November 2012, PITCO, in collaboration with First Climate AG Zurich Switzerland, executed an alternate fuel project for DG Khan Cement Company Limited in District Dera Ghazi Khan, Pakistan. The project aimed to replace coal with alternate fuels such as municipal solid waste, biomass, and tire-derived fuel (TDF) in clinker production, thereby reducing coal dependency and environmental impact.
PITCO’s services included a preliminary assessment, identifying biomass-based energy generation, and preparing the financial feasibility of the project. Our team assessed the financial additionality as per CDM requirements, selected the appropriate CDM methodology, and conducted a detailed biomass fuel supply chain analysis. PITCO performed laboratory analysis of biomass samples, assessed biomass and municipal solid waste storage facilities, and prepared a biomass assessment study. PITCO developed the CDM PDD, assisted with host country approval, reviewed the Initial Environmental Examination Report, oversaw stakeholder consultations, and provided comprehensive assistance during the validation process. The project aimed to promote sustainable energy practices and reduce greenhouse gas emissions.
