Plant General Manager

Company Description

Carbon Circle builds, owns and operates Renewable Natural Gas (also known as CBG) projects in India. These facilities convert organic matter in agricultural residues, industrial wastes, energy crops into biogas which is then upgraded to RNG.

RNG is a green alternative for Compressed Natural Gas (CNG) and Piped Natural Gas (PNG), and hence decarbonizes transportation and heating (industrial, domestic) applications.

Organic manure is a byproduct from our facilities. A typical plant produces 10 Tonnes Per Day of RNG and 40 Tonnes Per Day of organic manure.

Our first plant is operational in Bareilly, Uttar Pradesh since August 2024. The site is about 45 mins from both Rudrapur (Udham Singh Nagar, Uttarakhand) and Bareilly (Uttar Pradesh), and lies mid way between two airports, Pantnagar and Bareilly.
