Site selection

Why Meerut, why this site.

The plant was sized to a feedstock catchment that doesn’t need to be discovered — it was already there, looking for an outlet.

Pressmud-rich district

10+ sugar mills inside a 60 km radius produce 3,060 mt/day of pressmud during the crushing season. Mawana Sugar Mill is just 7 km from the gate; Daurala 33 km; Nanglamal 20 km.

Local livestock for cow manure

Uttar Pradesh hosts 19 million heads of cattle. Meerut District alone has 2,700+ dairies and gaushalas. The plant requires manure from roughly 4,000 cattle.

Route to NCR demand

16 GAIL Gas CNG stations operating in Meerut District, with the wider National Capital Region a primary CNG market in India. Mobile cascades dispatch CBG daily.
