The biogas sector has secured investment commitments exceeding Rs two billion during the three-day renewable energy exhibition RenewX 2025, according to the Indian Biogas Association (IBA).

Held from 23 to 25 April at the Chennai Trade Centre, the event was organised by Informa Markets and facilitated several MoUs aimed at boosting the biogas industry. RenewX brought together stakeholders from bioenergy, solar, wind, energy storage, and management sectors to foster strategic collaborations and policy dialogue.

IBA Chairman Gaurav Kedia stated that showcasing biogas capabilities in Chennai for the first time laid the foundation for new collaborations, particularly enhancing bioenergy interest in southern India. IBA President A R Shukla highlighted that the event combined technology, grassroots innovation, and policy alignment, reinforcing bioenergy’s critical role in India's future energy framework.

Founded in 2011 and revitalised in 2015, the IBA has been advancing bioenergy solutions across India, promoting sustainable waste management and clean energy generation in collaboration with bodies like the German Biogas Association.
