As a part of the MoU, SDMC will provide a designated area at the identified site in Hastsal in West Zone to IGL for setting up a biogas plant and a CBG station. SDMC will also provide assured regular supply of segregated biodegradable waste (around 100 tpd) to IGL for running the proposed CBG plant. The expected production of CBG from this plant is approximately 4,000 kg per day.
