Compressed Bio-Gas Plant, Rajasthan
A fully integrated CBG project — from captive feedstock to assured offtake — built on proven anaerobic digestion technology under India's SATAT initiative.
Technology
What Is Compressed Bio-Gas (CBG)?
Compressed Bio-Gas (CBG) is a renewable, clean-burning fuel produced by purifying and compressing biogas generated through the anaerobic digestion of organic waste — including agricultural residue, food waste, cattle dung, and dedicated energy crops like Napier grass.
CBG has the same chemical composition as Compressed Natural Gas (CNG) — primarily methane — making it a direct, drop-in replacement for fossil CNG in transport, industrial, and commercial applications.
The Government of India's SATAT (Sustainable Alternative Towards Affordable Transportation) initiative mandates that GAIL and the CGD network purchase CBG from producers like BNG Power — providing an assured, long-term offtake mechanism that de-risks the revenue model.
How It Works
From Farm to Fuel
A proven anaerobic digestion process converts organic waste into clean, compressed bio-gas.
Why This Works
Key Project Advantages
Beyond CBG
Valuable By-Products
The CBG production process generates commercially valuable organic by-products that create additional revenue streams and support our circular economy model.
FOM (Fermented Organic Manure)
Solid digestate rich in organic matter — sold as premium organic fertiliser to farmers at competitive prices, replacing chemical inputs.
LFOM (Liquid Fermented Organic Manure)
Liquid digestate applied directly to Napier fields and sold to farmers, improving soil microbial activity and crop yields.
