Indian Oil Corporation (IOC) has planned to set up more number of compressed biogas (CBG) units in the country. In a video conference with reporters from Puduchatram in Namakkal district on Thursday, executive director and state head of Indian Oil Corporation (IOC) P Jayadevan said IOC would be responsible for the compressed biogas and this can be consumed as a green renewable energy for automotive and industrial applications.
“Through central government’s sustainable alternative towards affordable transportation (SATAT), IOC envisages a target production of 15 million metric tonne of compressed biogas from 5,000 plants across the country by 2023,” he said.
