where EWC is carbon emission from waste generated, NH is the number of
households.
Nitrous oxide (N 2 O) emissions can occur as both direct and indirect emissions,
apart from CH 4 through domestic wastewater, which has significant carbon loading
[16]. The emission from wastewater generated from the individual households is
estimated by considering average water consumption per person per day as 135 L
[39, 45, 59].
3.2.4 Industries
Karnataka state is endowed with rich mineral resources as well as a large pool of
human resources. The state has public sector units and also gives impetus simultaneously to private sector growth, which prompted to establish many industries.
The state has major manufacturing industries due to progressive industrial policies.
The good Institutional networks such as Search Results Karnataka Industrial Area
Development Board-KIADB (en.kiadb.in), Karnataka State Small Industries Development Corporation Ltd-KSSIDC (kssidc.co.in), Karnataka State Small Industries
Development Corporation Ltd-KSSIMC, Technical Consultancy Services Organisation of Karnataka-TECSOK (tecsok.com), Federation of Karnataka Chambers of
Commerce and Industry-FKCCI (fkcci.org), and Industries and Commerce Department (kum.karnatka.gov.in) were set up to provide various assistance for industrial
development in the state. The major manufacturing industries such as cement, steel,
iron ore processing, petrochemical, sugar, paper, and paper board, etc., were considered [12] and associated emissions [51] were estimated based on the standard protocol
(Annexure-I).
3.2.5 Energy
The energy sector is considered to account emissions from thermal (burning of coal)
and diesel power generation. The state has an installed power generation capacity
of 28,789.99 MW of which, central utilities contribute 4123 MW, private utilities
contribute 13,259.71 MW and 11,407.28 MW under state utilities. The thermal power
contributes 9,560.82 MW, 698.00 MW by nuclear, and 8,431.34 MW by renewable energy sources for the total installed power generation capacity. The various
thermal and diesel power generating units were mapped across the state and emissions
associated were estimated (Annexure-II).
3.2.6 Transportation
Karnataka stands fifth as per registered motorized vehicles and contributing 7% of
registered vehicles of India. Bengaluru has a large quantum of vehicles after Delhi
with higher vehicle registrations. The quantum of registered vehicles in the state
