March 21, 2025: Indore is all set to make a significant leap towards environmental sustainability with the launch of India’s first PPP model based green waste processing plant under the Swachh Bharat Mission- Urban. This groundbreaking initiative, aims to revolutionize the city’s waste management system by converting green waste into valuable resources.

The facility will not only process green waste but will also generate revenue.

Branches of large trees will be redirected to Green Waste Processing Plant at City Forest, where they will be repurposed into valuable products. In addition, green waste generated from the premises of the major institutions will be directly collected and sent to the facility, with a fixed fee structure in place. Every day, the bustling city of Indore generates approximately 30 tons of green waste- wood, branches, leaves and flowers.

The goal of this initiative is to efficiently manage green waste, promote environmental sustainability and create additional revenue streams for the Municipal Corporation. It also plays a crucial role in controlling the Air Quality Index (AQI)
