Problem
Indian agriculture faces a dual challenge of accumulating organic waste and dependence on imported chemical fertilizers, leading to higher costs for farmers and increased greenhouse gas emissions.
Solution
Gangaa Oorja captures methane from organic waste and converts it into compressed biogas for renewable energy use, while the residual digestate is processed into organic fertilizers. This closed-loop approach replaces imported chemical fertilizers, reduces farmers’ input costs, and provides a clean energy source for rural and industrial applications. By diverting waste from landfills, the company prevents methane emissions and generates carbon offsets, contributing to India’s net‑zero goals. The biogas and fertilizer products are distributed through a network that serves farms and energy consumers, creating measurable financial and environmental benefits.
Target Audience
Primary customers are Indian farmers and agribusinesses seeking cost‑effective fertilizer alternatives, as well as rural energy users and industries requiring renewable biogas for power or heat.
