The Banas Bio-Compressed Natural Gas (CNG) Model Plant, a joint initiative of Banas Dairy, Suzuki Motor Corporation, and the National Dairy Development Board (NDDB), has been inaugurated in Banaskantha, Gujarat.
The plant is designed to promote clean energy, support a circular economy, and create additional income opportunities for livestock farmers. The facility processes 100 Metric Tonnes Per Day (MTPD) of cattle dung through anaerobic digestion to generate clean fuel and organic fertilizer.
Additionally, 9 taxis were flagged off under the “Gramin Bharat Taxi” service, which is the first rural-level cooperative-model taxi service in India where drivers own their vehicles.
