5. GAIL securing Sustainable Transport
Future
INDIA @ COP 21
www.justclimateaction.org
In 90’s Indian cities of Delhi & Mumbai started implementing
natural gas vehicle programmes
A study assessed the impact of various pollution control measures on air quality trends in
Delhi over a period of 15 years (1990-2005) and found that of all the different interventions
made to combat pollution in the city…
CNG
• Conversion of buses to CNG had maximum impact helping
to reduce CO, SO2, NO2 levels.
• As on date, around 6,000 CNG Buses ply in Delhi, targeting
11,000 as directed by Hon’ble High Court

6. Making Fuel &Power from Filth INDIA @ COP 21
www.justclimateaction.org
With more than 14 million tonnes of waste,
Ghazipur landfill (Delhi) is one of the largest
landfills.
LFG Project successfully registered with UNFCCC under
CDM mechanism.
Utilizing low quality LFG to produce about 30 KW of Power
through installation of Micro Turbine planned
GAIL implemented Landfill Gas (LFG) Project (4 hectares)
at Ghazipur Landfill site (27 hectares)
20% of methane gas
emissions in India caused by
landfills
In FY 14-15
200 MT of fugitive
Methane emissions
prevented
Reduction of
5000 TCO2e

7. Preventing Monumental damage! INDIA @ COP 21
www.justclimateaction.org
In 1983, 10,400 sq km of area declared Taj Trapezium Zone (TTZ)
& polluting units prohibited.
Series of actions taken to clean Taj, including
bringing in CNG to replace coal.
The industry came into limelight in 1996, when Supreme Court of India
ordered 292 coal based factories in the TTZ
to switch to cleaner alternative fuel such as natural gas.
GAIL played a crucial role to supply gas to this industrial cluster.
The Firozabad industry cluster, located about 40 km from Agra, uses
open pot furnaces to utilise glass as raw material for processing into
bangles using coal /wood.

• Global Methane Initiative (GMI): MoU with the United States
Environment Protection Agency (US EPA) to carry out studies regarding
fugitive & vented Methane emissions. Taken up at Vijaipur, Hazira &
Jhabua facilities. (GAIL Vijaipur reduced 41,225 ton of CO2e from FY 10-11)
• Green Building: The LEED Platinum rating 22-storey GAIL Jubilee
Tower at National Capital Region (NCR). Some of the key features of the
building are: a) Captive power generation plant using gas engine
generators b) Waste heat recovery AC system c) 30 KW solar power

11. Our efforts- Adaptation & Mitigation
INDIA @ COP 21
www.justclimateaction.org
Saving Fuel by Transportation by Pipelines instead of
using Trucks: helps in fuel, GHG Emissions, time & money
saving. Our LPG pipelines led reduction of GHG emissions by
9,656 tCO2e/year by shifting of LPG transport from road to
pipeline from late ‘90s. Approx. reduction of 0.25 Million
tCO2e over lifetime of 25 years.
Cooling of Feed Gas to GPU from low temperature RLNG going in South
Gujarat Pipeline: utilizes the cold generated due to pressure reduction of RLNG
for cooling of feed gas supplied to GPU.
Vapor Recovery from LPG Spheres: installed for recovering LPG &
Propane Vapors during scheduled inspection. ( Approx. 200 MT)
Piped Natural Gas (PNG) supply from Recovered Flare/ Waste Gas for
GAIL Township at Vijaipur (about 336 SCM/ Day )

12. Our efforts- Energy efficiency
INDIA @ COP 21

Retrofitting Natural Gas Fired Forced Draft Burner In Place Of
Existing Natural Draft Burners in Hot Oil Heater at GAIL
Vaghodia (0.612 MMSCM of fuel gas per year equivalent to INR 6.1
Million)
Modification in lighting system: use of LEDs ; Star rated equipments
Modification for delivery of primary compressor discharge towards Aonla at
Dibiyapur resulting in saving in 5% fuel gas to the tune of 1.4 MMSCM
GAIL selected for the Best Overall Performance amongst the Upstream Sector Oil
Companies for the Oil & Gas conservation activities from PCRA

13. Sustainability Aspirations 2020

15. Increasing energy demand while taking care of Environment
INDIA @ COP 21
www.justclimateaction.org
Weighted avg. specific emissions for fossil fuel-fired stations is, 1.09 for coal & 0.47 for Gas (tCO2/ MWh)
70%
25%
5%
Transport Industry Others
• Uses of CNG vehicles is one of the most effective measure
to control pollution
• Environment friendly CNG reduces health related
expenditure arising out of pollution, improves human
productivity levels
Switching 1%of power generation
from coal-fired plants to gas-fired
ones would cut global CO2
emissions as much as increasing
renewable energy capacity by 11
percent -- and do so rapidly and
economically.1% switch 11%

16. GAIL ready for leadership role in tackling climate
change
INDIA @ COP 21
www.justclimateaction.org
Partnered with TERI for “Delhi to Paris: Corporate Vision of
Climate Change” : to be released by Hon’ble MoS (I/C)
Environmental, Forest and Climate Change COP-21. As
Chapter lead, GAIL propagated that natural gas can act as a
bridge fuel as India gears up for the transition from
economy based on coal and oil to renewables.
Going forward, GAIL would like to play a leading role in
collaborating with other oil and gas players for making a positive
impact of the sector in respect of sustainability and climate change.
GAIL is following in letter and spirit the mantra “Going Green
makes sound Business Sense”.
