MCD Partners with DTL and POWERGRID for Narela Bawana Waste-to-Energy Plant

18 Apr 2025 CW Team

The Municipal Corporation of Delhi (MCD) has entered into an agreement with Delhi Transco Ltd (DTL) and POWERGRID Corporation of India Ltd to establish a waste-to-energy plant at Narela Bawana, according to a statement released on Tuesday.

The facility, designed to process 3,000 tonnes of municipal solid waste daily, aims to ease the city’s waste management challenges while generating clean energy.

To facilitate construction, a portion of the site needs to be cleared as three 400 kV transmission lines — one owned by DTL and two by POWERGRID — currently pass through the area. As part of the agreement, one DTL line and one POWERGRID line will be consolidated onto multi-circuit towers to create space for the plant.

POWERGRID will handle the relocation of the transmission lines, while MCD will bear the one-time capital costs involved in the process. Officials confirmed that the power transmission network will remain unaffected during the plant’s development.

The agreement was signed in the presence of MCD Commissioner Ashwani Kumar, Additional Commissioner Jitendra Yadav, Engineer-in-Chief PC Meena, and senior officials from DTL, POWERGRID, and MCD’s Engineering Department.

“This is a major milestone in our vision for a cleaner, greener Delhi,” an MCD official said.

The initiative marks a significant step forward in Delhi’s push towards modern and environmentally sustainable waste management solutions.
