Waste To Energy: Ram Charan Group’s Pilot Project Impresses Naidu, Makes Inroads Into Andhra

This one hit national headlines in December 2021 when it attracted a $ 4.1 billion investment from the American fund TFCC International. Such a massive investment into this little known Chennai-based group became the talk of the town. This one was able to attract such a huge investment because of its technology prowess. This enables it to convert un-segregated waste into energy without leaving behind any toxic residue. Ram Charan group has since been doing quiet work in the field of waste management and inked a pact with Bhilai Steel Plant and others for waste management and converting them into value added products and fuel. In the wake of urbanisation and population growth, waste management assumes criticality for municipalities especially. Ram Charan is pursuing a blinkered-horse like approach to sort out this issue. Significantly enough, it has run a successful pilot project for municipal waste conversion in Andhra Pradesh Chief Minister Chandrababu Naidu constituency Kuppam. Following this, the Naidu government is reportedly toying with the idea of extending association with Ram Charan group across the whole Andhra Pradesh. The residue sludge is converted into a syrup which is then used as a fertilizer for agricultural purposes. The carbon-rich syrup is found to aid crop growth. Well, Naidu appears to be on a mission mode, and has found in Ram Charan a good partner.
