Biogas Blending in India Reaches 1.7%, Short of 3% Target
Blending of compressed biogas, or CBG, into piped cooking gas and vehicle fuel reached 1.7% in the first half of the year. That is short of the 3% target for the current fiscal year. Pipeline connectivity is seen as key to closing the gap. The target then rises to 4% in 2027-28 and 5% the year after.

Context: CBG is biogas cleaned up to work like natural gas, usually made from farm residue, cattle dung and municipal waste. India wants it to cut fuel imports and reduce waste disposal problems, as part of a wider push for cleaner energy.
