Sustainability Development Goals (SDG)
The UNEP recognizes the multi-faceted contributions of the Biogas industry to various SDGs outlined in the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development, highlighting its potential to drive sustainable development, mitigate climate change, and improve the well-being of communities worldwide.
Biogas projects contribute to improved public health by reducing air and water pollution associated with organic waste decomposition, thus enhancing the well-being of communities.
Biogas production provides a renewable energy source that can replace fossil fuels, contributing to increased access to affordable, reliable, sustainable, and modern energy for all.
Biogas projects create job opportunities along the value chain, from waste collection to plant operation and maintenance, thereby promoting inclusive economic growth and decent work for all.
Biogas projects foster innovation and contribute to the development of sustainable infrastructure by providing decentralized energy solutions, especially in rural areas where access to conventional energy sources may be limited.
Biogas projects promote sustainable consumption and production patterns by utilizing organic waste as a feedstock, thus reducing waste generation and promoting resource efficiency.
Biogas production helps mitigate climate change by capturing methane emissions from organic waste and converting them into a usable energy source, thereby reducing greenhouse gas emissions.
Properly managed biogas projects contribute to land restoration and biodiversity conservation by reducing pollution and promoting sustainable land use practices.
The Biogas industry has started flourishing and will play an important role in the energy mix of India’s renewable energy portfolio. We at IBA are relentlessly working for the growth and success of the industry. We proudly want to say that we have succeeded with different phases to ensure the sustainable growth of the Biogas industry for the past 8 years. And, we hope to continue doing that for years to come and make our family bigger and make biogas industry a frontrunner of the renewable energy sector.
