Two waste-to-charcoal facilities will be established in Haryana, marking a significant move in waste management for the state.

These plants, also known as green coal plants, will be the first of their kind in the region and are set to be located in Faridabad and Gurugram.

The initiative, supported by the central government, aims to address environmental challenges and promote cleaner energy solutions.

Today, an agreement was signed between NTPC Vidyut Vyapar Nigam Limited (NVVNL), a subsidiary of NTPC Limited, and the Municipal Corporations of Gurugram and Faridabad.

The signing ceremony was attended by Union Minister Sh. Manohar Lal, Chief Minister Sh. Nayab Singh Saini, and Minister of State for Urban Local Bodies Sh. Subhash Sudha.

Chief Minister Sh. Nayab Singh Saini emphasized the significance of this initiative, highlighting its alignment with the Atmanirbhar Bharat campaign.

Under the agreement, NVVNL will construct waste-to-charcoal plants in Gurugram’s Bandhwari and Faridabad’s Motuka, each costing approximately Rs. 500 crore.

These plants are projected to convert 1500 tonnes of waste per day from Gurugram and Faridabad into charcoal.

The Municipal Corporations of Gurugram and Faridabad have allocated 20 acres of land each for the plants, with NTPC scheduled to take possession and commence construction shortly. The plants, employing indigenous technology, are expected to be operational within 30 months.

Chief Minister Sh. Nayab Singh Saini highlighted the transformative impact of these plants on waste management, foreseeing a cleaner environment and enhanced energy production for Gurugram and Faridabad.

The charcoal produced will be utilized in power generation, reducing reliance on mineral coal and supporting Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s Swachh Bharat mission.

Vikas Gupta, Commissioner and Secretary of the Urban Local Bodies Department, underscored the growing waste management challenges due to urbanization and hailed the plant’s establishment as a crucial step in addressing these issues.

Renu Narang, CEO of NVVNL, noted that these plants, capable of processing 1500 tonnes of waste daily, will be the largest of their kind in India.
