Desco Infratech has marked its entry into India’s renewable energy and bioenergy sector with the commissioning of Phase-1 of a Compressed Bio Gas (CBG) plant through its subsidiary, Shri Green Agro Energies (SGAEPL), at Bulandshahr in Uttar Pradesh.
The development represents a key milestone in the Desco Group’s expansion strategy and aligns with commitments outlined during the company’s May 2026 investor interaction, where management had announced plans to operationalise its CBG business and begin generating revenue from renewable energy operations, Energetica India reported.
Phase-1 of the facility has been commissioned with an initial operational output capacity of 1 Tonne Per Day (TPD), marking the first stage toward achieving the plant’s full designed capacity of 5 TPD.
Following commissioning, SGAEPL has entered the final stage of operational readiness and expects to begin commercial sales shortly, which would mark the company’s first revenue stream from its bioenergy business.
The Bulandshahr project has been developed with a long-term objective of creating a scalable and sustainable platform within the renewable energy sector.
Once fully operational, the company expects the facility to contribute to India’s clean energy goals while supporting growth and profitability across the group’s business portfolio.
India’s CBG market has been witnessing strong growth momentum, supported by government policies, rising emphasis on energy security, increasing focus on waste-to-energy projects and broader adoption of sustainable fuels.
Government initiatives such as SATAT and the wider renewable energy roadmap have created new opportunities for bioenergy development, positioning compressed biogas among the faster-growing segments within India’s evolving energy landscape.
The Bulandshahr plant is designed to convert agricultural residue and organic waste into clean fuel, supporting lower greenhouse gas emissions, improved waste utilisation and development of a circular economy.
The project also aligns with India’s broader objective of reducing dependence on conventional fossil fuels and promoting environmentally sustainable energy solutions.
Commenting on the development, Pankaj Pruthu Desai, Managing Director of Desco Infratech, said the commissioning of Phase-1 represents a defining milestone in the company’s growth journey and reflects its commitment to executing plans shared with investors.
He said that with 1 TPD capacity now operational, the company is preparing to begin commercial sales and start generating revenue from its bioenergy operations.
According to Desai, the project establishes Desco’s entry into the renewable energy value chain while creating a scalable foundation for future expansion.
He added that as India accelerates the transition toward sustainable fuels, the company sees the CBG segment as a significant long-term opportunity for growth, profitability and value creation.
The commissioning also supports Desco Group’s broader strategy of building scalable businesses across high-growth sectors while expanding its presence in renewable energy, bioenergy and sustainable infrastructure.
