The Okhla Compost Plant is a part of the Integrated Scientific Waste Management Scheme of Delhi. It processes over 200 tons of waste from dumpsites every day. The compost produced in the plant is used by local farmers to rejuvenate the soil, that has been affected due to overuse of chemical fertilizers.

The project activity is promoted by Tirupati Microtech Private Limited and it uses renewable energy (wind) as a clean fuel to generate electrical energy. The total installed capacity of the project is 3.95 MW.

Varam Power Projects (P) Ltd is a 6 MW independent biomass based power plant at Chilakapalem Village, Andhra Pradesh, India. It uses agricultural residues, like rice husk, sugarcane bagasse or corn cob, as fuel to generate electricity for the state grid.

Saradambika is a 10 MW Biomass Power Plant located in Chimur, India. The project conserves local resources, reduces pressure on the environment, and improves health conditions in the community. The emissions reductions of the project are estimated at 353,487 tonnes of CO2 eq. over the crediting period of 10 years.

Hydro projects generate electricity from flowing water. They reduce the need to burn fossil fuels to generate our power. Project benefits: preserving natural resources; promoting renewable energy generation; reducing dependency on non-renewable resources; helping spread green technology worldwide; and improving health.
