DESCO Infratech Limited has announced the acquisition of Shri Green Agro Energies Private Limited (SGAEPL), marking a decisive step in the company’s expansion into the compressed biogas (CBG) sector. The move aligns with DESCO’s long-term strategy to build a diversified and future-ready clean energy portfolio.

The acquisition provides DESCO with immediate access to an advanced-stage CBG project, allowing the company to bypass early-stage development challenges and accelerate its entry into the segment. The project has already witnessed significant capital deployment and is nearing the commencement of commercial operations. Key commercial arrangements are in place, positioning the asset for near-term revenue generation.

A major strength of the acquired project lies in its secured long-term feedstock supply, ensuring stable operations and predictable output. The facility is supported by established infrastructure, including pipeline connectivity that enables direct injection into major gas transmission and distribution networks. All essential land acquisition, statutory clearances, and regulatory approvals have been completed, substantially lowering execution and compliance risks.

This acquisition represents a meaningful milestone in DESCO Infratech’s clean energy journey. By integrating a project that is close to operational readiness, the company is significantly reducing time-to-market while strengthening its position in the renewable gas value chain. The transaction also supports DESCO’s broader ambition to emerge as a national player in gas distribution and sustainable energy solutions.

The CBG sector is increasingly seen as a critical component of India’s energy transition, offering the dual benefits of waste-to-energy conversion and reduced carbon emissions. Through this acquisition, DESCO aims to contribute to national sustainability goals while building a commercially viable and scalable business in green gas.

DESCO Infratech Limited is a diversified infrastructure EPC and O&M company with operations spanning city gas distribution, water pipeline networks, and power transmission projects across India. With a strong focus on technology-led execution, sustainability, and transparent governance, the company continues to invest in sectors that deliver long-term value to stakeholders while supporting India’s clean energy ambitions.
