The Haryana government has approved the construction of four waste‑to‑energy facilities, each capable of processing 5,000 tonnes of municipal waste per day.
The state cabinet of Haryana approved a project to set up four waste‑to‑energy (WTE) plants across the region. Each plant will have a designed capacity of 5,000 tonnes of municipal solid waste per day, converting it into electricity and heat for local use. The initiative aims to address the growing waste management challenge while generating renewable energy.
The plants are expected to be built under a public‑private partnership model, with the state seeking bids from eligible firms. Once operational, the facilities will reduce landfill dependence, cut greenhouse‑gas emissions, and provide a steady power supply to nearby communities.
Funding for the project will come from the state’s clean‑energy budget, supplemented by central government incentives for waste‑to‑energy schemes. Officials anticipate that the plants will become fully functional within the next two to three years, creating jobs and supporting Haryana’s sustainable development goals.
