Driving Long-Term Impact in Green Energy
Established in 2012 by IIM-Bangalore graduates Mainak Chakraborty and Sreekrishna Sankar, GPS Renewables began as a biogas startup. The company has since evolved into a full-stack renewable energy firm, focusing on clean fuel technologies.

What They Do and Why It Matters
GPS Renewables specializes in developing and operating biofuel infrastructure, including biogas, BioCNG, ethanol, and green hydrogen projects. Notably, they commissioned Asia's largest BioCNG plant in Indore, processing 550 tonnes of organic waste daily into 17 tonnes of compressed biogas.
Institutional Support and Future Prospects
GPS Renewables has mastered the art of converting diverse organic waste streams – from municipal solid waste (MSW) and agricultural residue (like paddy straw) to industrial and food waste – into high-value clean fuels. GPS Renewables has forged groundbreaking 50:50 joint ventures with India's leading Oil Marketing Companies (OMCs) – Indian Oil Corporation (IOCL), Bharat Petroleum Corporation Limited (BPCL), and Oil India Limited (OIL). These collaborations are monumental, aiming to establish numerous large-scale CBG plants across the country. The company consistently integrates advanced technologies, including their patented "Thermophilic Anaerobic Digestion" technology for converting paddy straw.
As India accelerates towards its ambitious renewable energy targets and combats climate change, companies like GPS Renewables are indispensable. With strong financial backing, a visionary leadership team, proven technology, and powerful partnerships, GPS Renewables is not just building plants; it's cultivating an entire ecosystem for clean energy. They are a shining example of how Indian innovation can lead the charge in creating a more sustainable, energy-independent, and cleaner future for the nation.
