Reliance Industries Limited (RIL) is targeting to establish 100 compressed biogas (CBG) plants in the next three years, consuming 5.5 million tonnes of agricultural residue and organic waste, says Mukesh D. Ambani, Chairman & Managing Director, Reliance Industries Limited at the 7th Edition of Bengal Global Business Summit.

We will also help farmers to grow energy plantations on a large scale, added Ambani during the Bengal Global Business Summit. 

"This would help mitigate nearly 2 million tonnes of carbon emissions and produce 2.5 million tonnes of organic manure annually. We are planning to set up CBG plants in Bengal that will enable Bengal farmers to increase their incomes by doubling up as anna daatas and urja daatas ─ producers of food as well as energy," said Ambani.

With our current and new investments in these three businesses, Reliance will march together with the great people of Bengal towards a future of shared prosperity, technological innovation, inclusivity, and harmony.

Reliance has invested close to Rs. 45,000 crores in West Bengal and is planning to invest an additional Rs. 20,000 crores in the next three years.
