Scania together with Swedfund, the development financier of the Swedish state, are forming a partnership to develop the production of biogas as an vehicle fuel in Nagpur in India. The biogas will be produced from digested sludge from one of the city's wastewater treatment plants.
"This is a Swedish venture, which in a sustainable and profitable manner can create many new jobs and contribute to India's shift towards renewable fuels. Biogas is the fuel of the future, which will contribute to solving India's huge pollution problems while taking a comprehensive approach to the major environmental challenges," says Swedfund's CEO Anna Ryott.
