Description
Description | Under the SATAT initiative launched in 2018, India planned to establish five thousand compressed biogas plants producing 15 million tonnes of CBG annually to displace imported LNG, clean agricultural waste, generate rural employment, and provide a domestic green molecule for blending by oil marketing companies. The project faced challenges due to unrealistic feedstock yield assumptions, silage losses, and weak project design, leading to many plants being stalled or underperforming. |
