The Haryana government has signed memoranda of understanding to set up four waste‑to‑energy facilities, each with a 5,000‑tonne‑per‑day capacity.
The Haryana administration has entered into memoranda of understanding with project developers to establish four waste‑to‑energy plants across the state. Each plant is designed to process up to 5,000 tonnes of municipal solid waste per day, bringing the combined capacity to 20,000 tonnes daily.
The agreements were signed by Haryana officials and the selected developers, marking a significant step toward modernising the state's solid‑waste management infrastructure. The facilities will convert the collected waste into electricity, helping to reduce reliance on landfill disposal.
By generating renewable power from waste, the projects are expected to contribute to the state's clean‑energy targets and create employment opportunities in construction, operations and maintenance. The initiative aligns with Haryana's commitments under the Swachh Bharat Mission to improve sanitation and environmental sustainability.
Implementation is slated to begin after the necessary clearances, with the first plant expected to become operational within the next two years.
