KANCHANPUR, Aug 4: The Bhimdutta Municipality is to produce energy from the solid waste produced by the municipality folks. 

A bio-gas plant is being installed in collaboration with the Alternative Energy Promotion Centre. A feasibility study has already been carried out in ward nos-3, 8, 9 and 18 of the municipality, according to Environment Officer at the Regional Urban Development Project Padma Raj Joshi.
