Jatropha is the plant with numerous potential benefits. As the fossil fuels are decreasing quickly and the carbon dioxide emission discharged from it pollutes the atmosphere, the world is working towards an alternative fuel to overcome it.

The Jatropha curcas is the plant which can grow in semi arid region, little care is enough for its development. It grows both in topical and sub tropical region. The jatropha seed consists of 35 percent oil material in it. The oil from jatropha can be utilized as biodiesel mix as much as 20% without refining. The oil burns with clear smoke-free flame, and was tested effectively as a fuel for simple diesel motor. It is not a food crop because the oil is non-edible. The oil is used as a standard medication disinfectant and to cure diseases like cancer, stacks, snakebite, paralysis dropsy etc. The seed oil is also used for lighting and in soap preparation. It is rarely used as a live fence in avoiding crops from animals and it sometimes used as property demarcation. It reduces the soil disintegration.

The maximum growing conditions for the jatropha curcas plant ranges from 1000 to1500 mm annual rainfall, with temperature levels of 20 to 28 C. The soil must be free draining pipes with no water logging. But sufficient water and nutrition is a needs to for high yield. The jatropha curcas is simple to grow and it can bear the seeds within a year of planting. It provides oxygen for the world and it can grow even in bad soil. It can not hold up against frost.

The jatropha curcas Electrification is establishing in lots of nations. Mali is considered to be one of the poorest countries on the planet. At Mali, Garalo jatropha curcas Producers' Cooperative (CPP) and the power company ACCESS are the primary institutions developing jatropha curcas cultivation. The personal power company ACCESS is generates and does electrical energy sales. Currently 247 households are connected to the micro grid after a payment of $30 as a contribution to the connection expenses. Likewise in India, the Rural Electricity Supply Technology (REST) objective of the Ministry of Power (MOP) preparation to produce power for all by 2012. The little scale power generation projects were established in Chattisgarh, India. It is being run by Winrock International in the Kabir Dham district. This small power system offers 24-hour power supply at the very affordable price of 50 cents per light bulb to poor villagers. It is 17.5 KW capacity power plant operates on raw jatropha seed oil.Jatropha is an appealing crop for rural advancement. The jatropha curcas oil illuminate backwoods with electrical power. The jatropha curcas planting on the wastelands has the ability to provide 50-60% of the India's fuel requirements.

The Jatropha curcas plantation in 1 20 heaps of carbon dioxide annually. The biggest jatropha producing country in Asia will be Indonesia and India. In Africa, Ghana and Madagascar will be the largest producers. Brazil will be the biggest manufacturer in Latin America. The plantation is a labor intensive procedure for this reason it develops task for many poor rural people. Above all Jatropha can be utilized as a Renewable Energy.
