Celebrating UK-India Collaboration.
We were delighted to welcome the British Deputy High Commission to Clarke Energy India’s first membrane-based biogas upgrading plant in Chennai. The visit was to discuss plans for UK-India Vision 2035 and learn about India’s clean energy objectives.
The plant was commissioned in July 2025 and directly supports India’s SATAT (Sustainable Alternative Towards Affordable Transportation) initiative. This aims to establish 5,000 bio-CNG plants nationwide.
The new system is capable of upgrading 600 Nm³/hr of raw biogas into high-purity biomethane, making it ideal urban waste-to-energy applications.
The site was visited by:
- Mark Birrell, Trade Counsellor for the South Asia Department for Business and Trade, British Deputy High Commission, Mumbai
- Sutapa Choudhury, British Deputy High Commissioner (Designate) for Chennai, covering Tamil Nadu, Kerala, and Puducherry
- Sarreen Sara Solomon, Senior Trade Advisor, British Deputy High Commission, Chennai.
The biogas site visit showcases not only future-ready energy solutions tailored to local needs but also an excellent example of UK-India business collaboration.
