Explanation
India's first Bio-CNG fuel plant was inaugurated on August 19, 2016, in Pune, Maharashtra. The plant was set up by Praj Industries, a city-based startup, and has a capacity to process 10 tonnes of organic waste per day. The Bio-CNG produced can be used as a replacement for fossil fuels like CNG and can be utilized for various applications, including powering vehicles and industrial boilers. This initiative is a significant step towards achieving India's energy security goals and promoting a sustainable future.
