Main CBG feedstocks in Odisha
| Feedstock | What to plan for |
|---|---|
| Rice straw | The main feedstock. Plan storage through the monsoon. |
| Cattle dung | A stable co-substrate. |
| Municipal wet waste | Bhubaneswar, Cuttack and other cities. |
| Other crop residues | Assessed site by site. |

Recommended plant design for Odisha
Odisha's heavy monsoon makes covered straw storage and drainage critical. Wet, rotting bales lose gas potential. A dung base with rice straw through a full pretreatment line is the usual design.

Central & state support for CBG in Odisha
Under the GOBARdhan National Unified Scheme (₹23,731 crore, FY 2026-27 to FY 2035-36), eligible greenfield CBG projects in Odisha can receive capital assistance of up to ₹2 crore per TPD, along with assured offtake, a pricing framework and support for pipeline connectivity. The CBG blending obligation for CNG and PNG creates steady demand. State-level industrial, renewable-energy or bioenergy policies may offer further incentives. These change with notifications, so we check the current provisions for Odisha while preparing your DPR.
