About Circle CBG

An operating CBG asset, built for scale.

Why we exist

Renewing waste for clean energy.

India produces more pressmud than its sugar mills can dispose of, and more cattle manure than its farmers can spread. The country also imports a growing share of its transport fuel. Circle CBG was incorporated in 2021 to convert that surplus into vehicle-grade compressed biogas for delivery into the National Capital Region under SATAT.

Circle CBG is a vertically integrated compressed-biogas operator. We own the full value chain — land and permitting, EPC and commissioning, day-to-day operations, and value-added co-products in organic manure and carbon credits. Engineering, process design, and digital plant monitoring are led in-house, pairing process-engineering discipline with deep Western UP industrial roots.

Our vision is a Western Uttar Pradesh platform of standardized 24 TPD plants — each built and operated to the same proven standard, powered by data and AI. Plant 1 has produced CBG for sale since August 2024; its expansion from 14.6 to 24 TPD is in execution for November 2026 commissioning, funded by a blend of internal accruals, term debt, and capital subsidies (MNRE Waste-to-Energy disbursement received; UPNEDA and UNIDO incentives in process).
