Developed in collaboration with Jindal Urban Waste Management Ltd., this waste-to-energy plant will process 1,000 metric tons of waste daily, producing 15 megawatts of electricity per hour.
The inauguration ceremony was attended by Gujarat’s Chief Minister Bhupendra Patel, Health Minister Rushikesh Patel, and Minister of State for Cooperation and Rural Industries Jagdish Vishwakarma.
The Ahmedabad Municipal Corporation (AMC) has long managed thousands of metric tons of daily waste at the Pirana site. To enhance waste management and sustainability efforts, AMC collaborated with the private sector to establish a waste-to-energy plant. This facility not only promotes city cleanliness and energy production but also contributes to environmental conservation.
The plant uses RDF-based Martin Reverse Grate Firing Technology, which incinerates municipal solid waste in boilers to produce 65 TPH of steam. This steam drives turbines that generate 15 MW of electricity per hour, fed into the power grid. Built at an estimated cost of INR 375 crore, the plant stands as a significant solution for managing solid waste.
