Telangana to use city waste to produce electricity

The subject will be discussed in all-party meeting

Hyderabad: The state government plans to utilise the 4,000 metric tonnes of waste generated in the city every day to produce power.

The Swachh Hyderabad team on Saturday visited the RDF power plant in Bibinagar mandal of Nalgonda district and discussed with the management measures to generate electricity using garbage.

The Bibinagar plant can produce 12 MW power by using 1 metric ton of garbage. The team will decide whether to upgrade the Bibinagar plant’s capacity or build four new plants around the city to use garbage.

The subject will be discussed in all-party meeting. The team during its recent visit had visited a similar plant in New Delhi where power is generated out of the city’s waste.
