This week, Jaap Veenenbos and Harshavardhini Varagunan represent SusBDe, it partners at the Dutch biogas sector at IFAT India 2025 in Mumbai. From the Netherlands Pavilion, they are meeting with partners, project developers, and investors to showcase how Dutch technology is driving India’s circular energy transition.
Prof. Joseph Stiglitz, Nobel Prize–winning economist, engaged in in-depth discussions with Bastiaan Dijkman of SusBDe. His perspectives on inequality and climate change resonate strongly with the challenges SusBDe faces: developing profitable, scalable projects that still struggle to secure government and institutional financing. These exchanges underscored both the urgency of action and the need for persistence in building a fairer, more sustainable future.

SusBDe Strengthens International Ties at WOCA 2025: As part of our mission to drive global sustainability through biogas innovation, SusBDe participated in this year’s WOCA 2025 in France. Our presence at this international forum for circular economy leaders opened the door to exciting new collaborations across continents.
The SusBDe LOC Nagpur Project is a milestone in sustainable waste management. In Phase 1, a Dry Fermentation Transportable Biogas Plant proved its potential, thanks to collaboration with SusBDe, Keva Group, Keva SusBDe Biotech (KSB), and WTT, The Netherlands, supported by Dutch agencies. Phase 2 will complete a large-scale biogas plant to process 1,200 MT of waste in Nagpur, led by Kedar Vaze and Keva SusBDe Biotech Pvt Ltd, advancing waste-to-energy innovation in India.
