IBA Urges 20% CBG Blending in Delhi CNG for Cleaner Air, Carbon Neutrality

• The Indian Biogas Association (IBA) proposes blending up to 20% compressed biogas (CBG) into compressed natural gas (CNG) in Delhi.
• This initiative aims to bring gaseous mobility closer to carbon neutrality and improve air quality.
• IBA emphasizes that existing CNG infrastructure can facilitate the upscaling of CBG supply, a carbon-negative fuel.
• A 20% CBG blend could save Delhi USD 63 million in foreign exchange from reduced gas imports.
• The association recommends retaining CNG in Delhi's clean mobility strategy and phasing out high-polluting diesel vehicles.
