At the facility, the collected waste undergoes processing—wet waste is converted into biogas, which is then used to generate electricity, while dry waste is sorted for recycling. Since its inception, the facility has recycled over 1,115,370 kilograms of garbage and has contributed to a reduction of more than 144,000 kilograms of CO? emissions. Additionally, since 2022, it has consistently produced 200 kilowatts of power daily.

By mitigating greenhouse gas emissions that would typically be released from landfills, EcoGram has significantly contributed to environmental sustainability. The site also features “Earth-Shala,” an open-air theatre equipped with educational display boards and a seating area, designed to engage and inform visitors. So far, around 1,087 individuals—including schoolchildren, government officials, corporate representatives, and international delegates—have toured the facility to gain insights into sustainable waste management practices.
