This waste management start-up intends to collect used cooking oil and recycle it into biofuel.
- Shiva Vig, CEO of BioD Energy India, believes that India’s fuel consumption pattern is slowly but surely changing.
- India is the largest consumer of vegetable oil and has a potential to recover 220 crore litre of Used Cooking Oil (UCO) for the production of biodiesel by 2022 through coordinated action.
- The new Biofuel Policy is in place to harness the potential and reduce the import dependency of crude oil to meet India’s growing energy demand.
- Vig says that the potential for used cooking oil collection in Delhi NCR is huge.
