Outline of GHG Mitigation Activity

The project introduces energy saving air jet looms in Bangladesh which has a thriving textile industry.

It achieves GHG emission reduction by replacing rapier looms with air jet looms that can reduce approximately 70% of energy usage.

A wide dissemination of the technology is sought for in South East Asia where energy and labor costs are rising.

Expected GHG Emission Reductions

1,478 tCO2/year ( 2,764 tCO2 1,286 CO2 )
Reference CO2 emissions: 2,764 tCO2/year
electricity generation supplied to the grid (4,125.5 MWh/year)
x grid CO2 emission factor (670 kgCO2/MWh)

Project CO2 emissions: 1,286 tCO2/year
 electricity generation supplied to the grid (1,920.1 MWh/year) x grid CO2 emission factor (670 kgCO2/MWh)
