Bigger urban markets produce tons waste /day Disposed in the landfills Total Waste ~ >50 million tons* /year

Facts Figures Waste from Wholesale Vegetable & Fruit Markets 50 million tons Enriched Biogas (>97% Methane) from 50 million tons 1.7 million tons Diesel / Petrol Replaced ~ 1.7 million tons Total Estimated CO2 emissions Reduction 4.2 - 6.15 million tons on replacing petrol / diesel respectively

Why Urban Vegetable Wholesale Markets

Every city has Central Bus depot with diesel exhaust & soot particles City Markets are Relatively large and centralized like Mumbai/ Chennai/Bangalore/Delhi Easier to switch fuel for public transport rather than private vehicles Air pollution reached alarming levels in cities Shortage of landfill space and Expense in transporting waste to

Success

Strong Stakeholder Networks and Strategic Alliances between RE industry, agriculture, Municipalies, Environmental Groups

Greater Public Private Academia Partnership Well defined Biogas Roadmap for India Environmental Regulations to enforce switch to Gas (like Delhi)
