OIL Green Energy signed deals with four Haryana municipalities to build waste-to-energy plants for compressed biogas and electricity.

The company, a wholly owned arm of Oil India Limited, signed these Memoranda of Understanding to develop integrated projects across Hisar, Ambala, Faridabad and Gurugram. Each city will get its own facility sized to its waste output.

Hisar’s plant will handle 500 tonnes of municipal solid waste per day, Ambala’s will manage 900 tonnes, Faridabad’s will take in 1,600 tonnes, and Gurugram’s will process the largest share at 2,000 tonnes daily.

Put together, the four sites will process around 5,000 tonnes of waste every single day. Here’s how it works in simple terms. Waste gets sorted first, separating what can be recycled from what can be turned into energy.

What’s left goes through processing to create two useful outputs: compressed biogas, expected to run at 70 to 75 tonnes per day across the four plants, and green electricity, expected to add up to roughly 50 megawatts.

This isn’t just about disposal. Less waste piling up in landfills means better sanitation for these cities, and the recovered materials get a second life instead of getting buried.

The government’s push here ties directly into circular economy goals, treating garbage as a resource rather than a problem to bury and forget. The timing lines up with a bigger national push too.

These four projects fall under the GOBARdhan scheme, the Centre’s National Circular Bioenergy programme launched this year to encourage exactly this kind of organic waste conversion.

For OIL Green Energy, this deal adds meaningfully to its clean energy portfolio and deepens its footprint in India’s fast growing waste-to-energy space, an area drawing more government backing as cities look for ways to manage rising waste volumes sustainably.
