13th March’ 23: CEID Consultant and Engineering Pvt Ltd has achieved another milestone in sustainable energy with the inauguration of Indian Oil Corporation Ltd’s second Compressed Biogas (CBG) plant in Gorakhpur, Uttar Pradesh. The Honorable Chief Minister of Uttar Pradesh, Shri Yogi Adityanath, officially inaugurated the state-of-the-art facility on March 8, 2024. The gas generation (EPCC 1) and gas purification (EPCC 4) aspects of the project were spearheaded by CEID Consultant and Engineering Pvt Ltd, known for its CBG technology approved by MOPNG, aimed at promoting clean energy solutions and environmental stewardship.
This initiative not only supports CEID’s commitment to sustainable energy but also aligns with the Uttar Pradesh government’s vision for promoting clean and renewable energy sources. By utilizing agricultural waste, the plant is set to generate a minimum of 20 tons of pure compressed Biogas (CBG) per day, making a significant impact on waste management and reducing the carbon footprint associated with traditional farming practices. Furthermore, the project stands as a beacon of progress in fostering public-private partnerships for the greater good.
Prince Gandhi, Founder & CEO, of CEID Consultant and Engineering Pvt Ltd expressed his pride in the project, stating, “As the founder and CEO of CEID Consultant and Engineering Pvt Ltd, I am thrilled to witness the successful commissioning of the CBG plant in Gorakhpur, marking another milestone in our partnership with IOCL. Our expertise in EPC services has enabled us to deliver innovative solutions that harness renewable resources like paddy straws for clean energy generation. With ongoing collaborations with GAIL and other PSUs and our recent MOU signing with IGL at India Energy Week, we are committed to accelerating the transition towards sustainable energy across India.”
Deepak Prajapati, CTO, CEID Consultant and Engineering Pvt Ltd stated that ” I am pleased to highlight our pioneering contribution to gas generation and purification for the IOCL CBG plant in Gorakhpur. With our purification technology, coupled with the utilization of high-quality, state-of-the-art equipment, this project stands as a testament to our commitment to innovation and excellence in the renewable energy sector. At CEID, our in-house manufacturing capabilities further ensure the reliability and efficiency of our solutions, driving us towards a sustainable and brighter future for India.”
Abhinav Govil, DGM Marketing, CEID Consultant and Engineering Pvt Ltd further states, “As pioneers in sustainable energy solutions within the CBG sector, we take pride in implementing the second CBG plant in Uttar Pradesh. This plant signifies our dedication to utilizing agricultural waste, particularly paddy straw, to produce clean energy, generating 20 tons of CBG per day. Our first plant in UP, operating on multi feedstock and producing 5TPD CBG, located in the Hapur district, has been successfully operational for more than a year. With 14 additional plants scheduled for commissioning in UP within the next year, we eagerly anticipate continuing our journey towards a greener future.”
An additional significant aspect of the project lies in its profound impact on rural economies. By harnessing 200 tons per day of agricultural waste, the plant not only offers an eco-friendly solution to waste management but also fosters job creation within local communities. Moreover, with CEID overseeing the operation and maintenance, employing 120 individuals, this initiative further contributes to employment generation. By diversifying the energy mix and diminishing reliance on fossil fuels, the CBG plant in Gorakhpur assumes a pivotal role in propelling India’s sustainable development agenda forward.
