Gujarat- Suzuki Motor Corporation (Suzuki) has signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) for a basic agreement between Suzuki R&D Center India Private Limited, a wholly owned subsidiary of Suzuki in India, the National Dairy Development Board (NDDB), and Banas Dairy. The agreement is for setting up the fifth biogas production plant and promoting rural mobility services utilizing biogas, which will contribute to achieving carbon neutrality in India.
The MoU conclusion ceremony took place at the Banas Dairy Sanadar Plant in Banaskantha district, Gujarat. The event was attended by Banas Dairy’s Chairman, Shankar Chaudhary, NDDB’s Executive Director, S. Rajeev, and Suzuki’s President, Toshihiro Suzuki. Around 2,500 local dairy farmers also participated in the ceremony.
The three parties are working toward setting up four biogas production plants in Banaskantha district, Gujarat. The basic agreement was concluded to setup the fifth biogas production plant.
The rural mobility service aims to provide opportunities for clean and affordable transportation to citizens in rural areas by utilizing biogas fuel for Maruti Suzuki’s CNG vehicles. The service will initially start within the Banaskantha district.
Mr. Toshihiro Suzuki, Suzuki President, said “By cooperating with Banas Dairy and NDDB, we will start two new businesses: biogas production plant and rural mobility service. Each member of the three parties will give out ideas to create a new model of lifestyle and contribute to the development of Banaskantha district.”
Suzuki, NDDB, and Banas Dairy will continue to promote the initiatives of realizing carbon neutrality in India and supporting transportation in rural areas of the country.
