Chandigarh is set to establish its first compressed biogas plant with an investment of Rs. 125 crore at the Dadumajra dumping ground.

The project will convert municipal solid waste into compressed biogas and organic manure.

It aims to improve waste management and reduce landfill dependency.

The plant will support clean energy generation and circular economy objectives.

The initiative marks a major step in sustainable urban infrastructure development.

The project is expected to significantly reduce methane emissions from waste dumping.

The biogas produced will be used as an alternative fuel for vehicles and utilities
