Pathardi waste to energy plant in Nashik

project in construction

The project involves the Nashik Municipal Corporation setting up a wet waste-based compressed natural gas (CNG) plant in Nashik, specifically at Pathardi. The initiative aims to convert around 30 metric tonnes of segregated wet waste per day into approximately 480 kg of CNG, promoting sustainable waste management and renewable energy generation. The plant will be developed under a public-private partnership (PPP) model, with a private agency investing in upgrading and operating the facility for 15 years. Scheduled to become operational by September 2026, the project is expected to generate revenue for the civic body through a share in CNG sales while addressing earlier operational issues faced by the previous waste-to-energy setup at the same site.
