Hyderabad: Industries Minister D. Sridhar Babu launched the Siddipet CBG plant project at Narmetta village on Sunday and said it would create about 1,400 jobs in the district.
Juno Joule Biofuels Private Limited is developing the Siddipet CBG plant with an investment of ₹700 crore. The minister attended the ground-breaking ceremony as chief guest. The project marked a major industrial step for Siddipet district.
During the programme, Sridhar Babu said women would fill 30% of the jobs. He added that the hiring plan reflected the government’s focus on inclusive growth. He also noted that the project would expand employment opportunities across the district.
Moreover, the minister said the project will follow a cluster-based model. It will roll out in three phases. Under this plan, the company will build 10 plants. Each unit will process 100 tonnes per day.
The Siddipet CBG plant network will generate biofuel gas from paddy straw, cattle dung, and poultry waste. As a result, the project will promote sustainable production. It will also convert agricultural and animal waste into usable energy.
Siddipet CBG plant to expand in three phases
Sridhar Babu said the Siddipet CBG plant will strengthen clean energy production in the region. He added that the plants will support circular economy practices. Furthermore, the initiative will accelerate the shift toward cleaner fuel systems.
The minister said paddy straw, cattle dung, and poultry waste will serve as raw materials. These inputs will create a steady waste-to-energy chain. Consequently, the project will link rural resources with industrial energy production.
The event marked the start of a major private investment in Siddipet district. The ₹700 crore outlay placed the project among key industrial developments in the region. Additionally, the minister said the initiative combined job creation, women’s participation, and biofuel production.
He said, “The initiative will be implemented in a cluster-based model across three phases, with the development of 10 CBG plants, each having a capacity of 100 tonnes per day. The plants will produce biofuel gas using sustainable feedstock such as paddy straw, cattle dung, and poultry waste, contributing to circular economy practices and clean energy transition.”
A significant step forward for clean energy and rural transformation in Telangana.
