Axllo Green Energy Private Limited (AGEPL) is poised for a significant leap in the renewable energy sector, securing full funding for 20 Compressed Biogas (CBG) plants across South India. A United Kingdom-based investment firm M/s Climate Capital Technolgy Limited, London, has committed an impressive $66M (around 560 Crores INR) for the erection, commissioning, and operation of these plants, each with a capacity of 5 TPD (Tonnes Per Day).

The first plant, located near Bagalkot, Karnataka, is set to be commissioned on Axllo’s 5-acre land plot. The plant will process Pressmud and Napier Grass as feedstock to produce 5,000 kgs of Compressed Biogas daily. In addition to biogas, the plant will generate valuable by-products such as 32 tonnes of solid manure per day and carbon credits, contributing to environmental sustainability and carbon emission reductions.

The UK-based financing company views this partnership as a key entry into the Indian market, with a primary focus on transacting carbon credits in the international market. Carbon credits are projected to have substantial financial potential, offering promising returns on investment while supporting global carbon reduction efforts.

Commenting on the investment, the CEO of the UK-based financing firm, Climate Capital Technology Limited, Mr. Douglas Prentice, said, “We will work closely with the Axllo team to ensure a smooth transition of funds in alignment with the project’s milestones. We believe this partnership will significantly contribute to India’s renewable energy goals and global efforts towards sustainable energy solutions.”

AGEPL’s CEO and Managing Director, Mr. Sadanand M. Banagar, emphasized the importance of the project beyond its financial value, stating, “Beyond the lucrative financial returns, we are committed to supporting green initiatives that align with our mission to drive sustainability and combat climate change. The significant reduction in carbon emissions and the promotion of renewable energy in rural areas make this project particularly compelling for us.”

This collaboration marks a milestone in Axllo Green Energy’s journey towards a greener and more sustainable energy future, positioning it as a key player in India’s renewable energy landscape.

India’s Adani Group is making significant progress in its renewable energy project in Sri Lanka’s north and eastern regions. According to Energy Minister Kanchana Wijesekara, the project aims to generate 500 MW of power and is set to be completed by December of next year.

Minister Wijesekara took to Twitter to share updates on the project’s advancement. He stated that he recently met with Anil Sardana, the Managing Director and CEO of Adani Transmission Ltd, along with the project management team. During their meeting, they discussed the challenges, road map, and timeline for the project’s completion. Wijesekara expressed satisfaction with Adani Green Energy’s commitment to finishing the project by December 2024.

This meeting marked the first review since February, highlighting the ongoing monitoring and evaluation of the project’s progress.

In August of the previous year, the Adani Group received approval to initiate wind power projects in Pooneryn, located in Sri Lanka’s northeast region. Adani Green Energy was granted provisional approval for two wind projects, one in Mannar with a capacity of 286 MW and another in Pooneryn with a capacity of 234 MW. These projects require an investment of over USD 500 million. It’s worth noting that the Adani Group’s engagement in Sri Lanka’s energy sector goes beyond their investments in the Western container terminal of Colombo’s port.

Gautam Adani, the chief of the Adani Group, had a meeting with former President Gotabaya Rajapaksa in October 2021 to discuss further investment opportunities in Sri Lanka. This meeting took place after the Adani Group signed a deal to develop the western container terminal of the Colombo port during President Rajapaksa’s tenure.
