Bargarh Bio Fuels Development Foundation

Bargarh Bio Fuels Development Foundation has its office at Anand Nivas, Ward No. 10. It’s a simple place, really just a room where we keep our files and meet up to talk about fuel and the environment. We’re interested in bio fuels and how to make them work for regular people around here. It sounds technical, but we try to keep it down to earth when we explain it. Most of us grew up nearby, so we know the land and what it can provide. We don’t have any fancy lab coats or high-tech machinery here in the office. It’s mostly just maps, some samples in jars, and a lot of notebooks filled with ideas. We talk to farmers a lot because they are the ones who actually understand the raw materials. The building is just a regular house, which makes people feel comfortable coming in. We don’t want to look like a big company from the city. That’s not who we are. We’re just trying to find better ways to use what we have without wasting anything. Some days we just sit on the porch and hash out the problems we’re facing with the local supply or the weather. It’s slow work, and it takes a lot of patience to get things right. But we’ve got plenty of that. It’s a local project for local people, and we are happy to keep it that way for the long haul.
