Our climate commitment

Our commitment to net zero by 2070

India has set a target to achieve net zero emissions by 2070. At AeroShakti, we are committed to contributing to this national goal by turning organic waste into clean energy and healthier soils.

The context

Why methane matters for our climate

Organic waste is one of the largest sources of methane emissions in India when it is sent to landfill. In the absence of oxygen, this waste decomposes and releases methane, a greenhouse gas that is significantly more potent than carbon dioxide in the near term.

Methane has a global warming potential around 80 times higher than carbon dioxide over a 20 year period. This means that even small amounts of methane released from landfills can have a major impact on climate change. With rapid urbanisation and growing waste volumes, managing organic waste is essential to meet India’s climate goals.

Anaerobic digestion captures methane that would otherwise escape into the atmosphere and converts it into a valuable resource. The same process also produces nutrient rich biofertiliser, helping to close the loop and support sustainable agriculture.

Our commitment. Through our plants, collection services and operations, we are helping to reduce methane emissions, create clean energy and healthier soils, supporting India’s journey to net zero by 2070.

80x

Methane is around 80 times more potent than carbon dioxide over a 20 year period.

62 million tonnes

Approximately 62 million tonnes of municipal solid waste is generated in India each year, with over 50 percent being organic waste.

~15 percent

Methane from waste is estimated to contribute around 15 percent of India’s total greenhouse gas emissions.

Milestones and roadmap

Supporting India’s Net Zero Journey to 2070

Five key milestones show where we are today and the road ahead. Each one is a number we can be held to, not a statement of intent.

2025

8 operational biomethanation plants

A proven decentralised waste to energy platform serving municipalities and commercial facilities across India. All plants are running with real time monitoring, and we measure actual performance, including waste processed, renewable energy generated and emissions avoided.

2030

25,000 tonnes processed annually

Aiming to collect and process 25,000 tonnes of organic waste each year through an expanded network of biomethanation plants across municipal and commercial locations, supporting India’s circular economy.

2040

Carbon neutral operations

Net zero emissions across our own plants, fleet and offices through renewable energy generation, operational efficiency and responsible resource management.

2055

Net negative contribution

Avoiding more greenhouse gas emissions than our operations produce, through landfill methane avoidance, renewable energy generation and nutrient recovery, including embodied carbon in construction.

2070

Supporting India’s net zero vision

Helping cities, businesses and institutions divert organic waste from landfill while producing renewable energy and returning nutrients to the soil, contributing to India’s national commitment to achieve net zero emissions by 2070.
