Ahmedabad [Gujarat], October 30 (ANI): Union Home Minister Amit Shah will inaugurate Gujarat’s largest waste-to-energy (WTE) plant, a significant step towards addressing the city’s growing waste management needs. Developed through a public-private partnership between the Ahmedabad Municipal Corporation (AMC) and the Jindal Group, the plant has already begun operations on an experimental basis, processing 1,000 tons of waste daily to generate 15 MW of electricity per hour. Once fully operational, the facility will manage the city’s total waste production of 4,000 metric tons per day, converting it into 350 MW of electricity. This project is expected to provide a major boost to Ahmedabad’s ranking in national sanitation surveys, helping address the persistent issue of waste at the Pirana landfill. The plant will also produce fly ash, a by-product that can be sold in the open market, contributing to the local economy. Ahmedabad's shift towards waste-to-energy technology sets a model for other urban centers in India to follow, promoting both clean energy and effective waste management.
