The Municipal Corporation of Delhi (MCD) has signed a memorandum of understanding (MoU) with Oil India Limited (OIL) to establish two Bio-Methanation-based Compressed Bio-Gas (CBG) plants in Delhi. The agreement was signed in the presence of Delhi Chief Minister Rekha Gupta and Mayor Pravesh Wahi. Oil India will invest around 400 INR-Crore in the project, while MCD will provide the required land. In the first phase, the facilities will process a combined 800 TPD of wet waste.
The project includes a 500 TPD Bio-CBG plant on an anticipated 10 Acres at Tehkhand and a 300 TPD facility on 7 Acres at Okhla. Both plants will scientifically process segregated organic waste into compressed bio-gas and organic fertilizer. Additionally, Oil India will undertake the construction and operation of both facilities. The company will also distribute the generated CBG through its pipeline network. According to MCD officials, the agreement replaces an earlier proposal involving Infrastructure Leasing & Financial Services (IL&FS) for a 300 TPD CBG plant at the Okhla landfill site.

The Delhi CBG plants are expected to strengthen the city’s waste processing infrastructure and improve the management of wet waste. Furthermore, the facilities will support clean energy generation by converting organic waste into compressed bio-gas. The project will also reduce dependence on landfill disposal while producing organic fertilizer for agricultural applications.
