Indore to set up India’s First PPP Green Waste Processing Plant

The Indore Municipal Corporation has launched India’s first PPP green waste processing plant under the Swachh Bharat Mission-Urban. This facility will convert approximately 30 tons of green waste produced daily in Indore into valuable resources like wooden pellets serving as an alternative to coal. The plant, covering 55,000 square feet, is expected to generate revenue of around Rs 3,000 per ton from wood and branches supplied for processing. The project will aid in enhancing the city’s waste management system and reduce pollution levels, contributing significantly to sustainable urban development.
