We have adopted ecologically sound practices in our operations such as the usage of alternate and renewable sources of energy. We are also working on conservation of natural resources and better waste management.
At Tasty Bite, we make use of renewable energy sources at our facilities for our power needs. Around 16% of operations have shifted to renewable sources of power such as solar, wind and biogas.
We use rooftop solar panels of 500 Kw mounted on our manufacturing facility for generation of solar power. Wind power alone accounts for 8% of our total power consumption.
Our biogas plant converts the organic food waste into electricity, which helps further to power our utilities and facilities. We use sugarcane briquettes to run our boilers, which accounts for 75% of our total energy consumed. Thus, we have managed to avoid the use of fossil fuels in our daily operations.
Water is essential for sustenance of life and we have undertaken various measures for its conservation. Our Effluent Treatment Plant (ETP) ensures zero water waste, recycling ~92 million litres of water annually. The recycled water is used for irrigation at our organic agricultural farm.
Domestic waste is treated at our Sewage Treatment Plant (STP). We also have a rainwater harvesting plant that has been successful in increasing the groundwater table year-on-year and enriches the cultivable land.
The organic waste generated in our facility increases as the scale of our business expands. We have installed a biogas plant in our facility that converts this organic waste into electricity for our facility.
The biogas plant is designed to convert a total bio-waste of 4 tonnes per day to biogas and organic manure. The plant generated around 80,000 kwh of electricity from 526 tonnes of waste in 2021-22. The sludge generated in the plant is a rich source of organic manure and is directed to our organic agricultural farms.
The Tasty Bite organic farms implement techniques such as crop rotation, vermicomposting, use of natural fertilisers to increase the yield naturally. We also have a sustainability centre and training & development laboratory at our farm for farmer extension programmes.
