Indraprastha Gas Limited (IGL) has partnered with CEID Consultants and Engineering (CEID) to establish more than 25 compressed biogas (CBG) plants with a combined production capacity exceeding 125 tonnes per day (TPD) through a joint venture.

The Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) was signed at IGL’s head office in New Delhi by Ajai Tyagi, Executive Director (Business Development and Corporate Strategy), IGL, and Prince Gandhi, Executive Director, CEID.

Aligned with the Government of India’s GOBARdhan initiative, the partnership aims to transform organic waste into clean and renewable fuel, strengthening sustainable waste management and promoting a circular economy.

“Beyond clean energy generation, the initiative will support rural economic opportunities, reduce dependence on conventional fossil fuels and strengthen India’s domestic renewable gas ecosystem,” said IGL.

IGL has also signed an MoU with Delhi Division of the Northern Railway to supply Commercial Piped Natural Gas (PNG) across 22 railway establishments in Delhi, Ghaziabad, and Gautam Budh Nagar. Aligned with National PNG Drive 3.0. It held that this initiative marks a major step toward replacing traditional liquid fuels with cleaner, more reliable pipeline gas, strengthening India’s green energy vision.

IGL has been expanding its presence in the CBG sector through strategic partnerships. Recently, the Noida Authority signed a Letter of Intent with IGL to develop a 300 TPD CBG plant. The company has also announced a joint venture with Hindustan Waste Treatment (HWT) to undertake CBG and other biofuel projects.
