Biomass pellet
plant consultancy
in India.
We guide power plants, agri-entrepreneurs and manufacturers through every stage of the biomass pellet business — from feasibility and NABARD subsidy to plant setup, CAQM co-firing compliance and EU export. One accountable partner, across the whole project lifecycle.
Why biomass pellets
A clean, coal-replacing fuel — and a growing export earner.
Biomass pellets are compressed agricultural residue — straw, husk, bagasse and wood waste — turned into a dense, high-calorific fuel. They replace coal in power plants and industrial boilers, cutting emissions while giving farmers a market for crop residue that would otherwise be burned.
India's CAQM mandate requires thermal power plants to co-fire 7% biomass, creating large, stable domestic demand. At the same time, the EU imports over 25 million tonnes of pellets a year — and with ENplus certification, Indian producers can access that premium export market.

One connected pathway
From crop residue to a saleable fuel.
A profitable pellet plant is a sequence of decisions — feedstock, processing, quality, compliance and market. We stay accountable across all five.
01 / Feedstock
Secure the raw material
We assess agri-residue availability, seasonality and pricing in your catchment — the foundation of plant viability.
02 / Processing
Dry, grind and pelletise
Feedstock is sized, dried to the right moisture and pressed into dense, high-calorific pellets.
03 / Quality
Hit the spec buyers want
Ash, moisture, density and calorific value are controlled to meet domestic boiler and export standards.
04 / Compliance
Certify and document
From CAQM co-firing paperwork to ENplus for export, we prepare the certifications your buyers require.
05 / Market
Sell at the right price
Connect with power plants, industrial boilers and export buyers — domestic offtake or international contracts.
