Agrowaste Briquettes
Mixed crop residue, densified. A direct coal substitute for boilers and industrial kilns.
India's agri-waste energy infrastructure
Farm Residue.
Industrial Fuel.
Verified Carbon.
Eco Saarthi operates India's first structured biomass aggregation network, converting agricultural residue into green coal briquettes, biochar, and carbon removal credits at industrial scale.
Every season, residue that could fuel industry goes up in smoke.We collect it instead.

What we make
- Agrowaste Briquettes

- Saw Dust Briquettes
- Saw Dust Pellets
- High-Stability Biochar
- Wood Vinegar
- Carbon Removal Credits
Why it matters
India's next fuel source is burning in its fields.
Every season, crop residue with no buyer is set on fire, while industries pay premium prices for fossil fuel. Eco Saarthi connects the two, and pays the farmer in the middle.
Without a market
- 1.1Mfields of stubble burnt in India every year
- ₹0earned by the farmer from crop residue
- Coaland furnace oil still fire industrial boilers
With Eco Saarthi
- Fair pricepaid for residue at village-level collection centres
- Up to ₹5La year for farmers from formerly zero-value residue
- Drop-inQC-tested biomass fuel that replaces coal
PlatformCircular. Decentralised.
Circular. Decentralised.
Built to scale.
Inspired by the Amul cooperative model: a pan-India reverse supply chain that converts agri-waste into structured, contracted clean energy supply. Follow the loop, or pick a stage to explore it.
Circular economy in action
Stage 1 of 4
Waste collected
Village-level collection centres procure crop residue at fair prices directly from farmers. 16 centres operational across Gujarat, Maharashtra, and Madhya Pradesh.
10,000+farmers onboarded
- 1%
of India's thermal coal replaced, about 14 million tonnes a year
- ₹1,000
more farmer income for every tonne of residue collected
- Biochar
carbon removal scaled to institutional-grade volumes

First-mover advantage
India's only structured, farmer-integrated biomass supply chain.
Biomass co-firing mandates, PAT scheme compliance demand and an emerging voluntary carbon market are converging. Eco Saarthi is positioned to capture this window before the market consolidates.
Policy push
Biomass co-firing mandates and the PAT scheme are pushing industry towards biomass fuel.
Market demand
Corporate ESG commitments are at record levels, driving demand for clean fuel and carbon removal.
Team
Built by operators. Backed by results.
Eco Saarthi was founded after seeing a structural market failure: India burns 1.1 million fields of stubble annually while industries pay premium prices for fossil fuel. Closing that gap takes operators on the ground across Maharashtra and Gujarat.

What fuels does Eco Saarthi supply?
Four grades: Agrowaste Briquettes (3,300-3,500 Kcal/kg), Groundnut Shell Briquettes (3,700-3,800 Kcal/kg), and Saw Dust Briquettes and Pellets (4,200+ Kcal/kg). Every grade is standardised, QC-tested and available under long-term supply contracts.
Can your briquettes replace coal in our boiler?
They are built as drop-in replacements for coal and furnace oil in boilers and industrial kilns. Pellets suit automated feeding systems. Tell us about your boiler and monthly requirement through the enquiry form and we will recommend a grade.
Where do you operate?
Across Gujarat, Maharashtra and Madhya Pradesh, with 16 collection centres, factories in Botad and Kachchh, and hub-and-spoke logistics connecting them to industrial buyers.
How do farmers benefit?
Farmers sell crop residue at fair prices at village-level collection centres instead of burning it. Residue that used to be worth nothing becomes income, with no change in land use. Our FY2030 mission is to raise farmer income by ₹1,000 for every tonne collected.
Do you offer carbon removal credits?
Yes, through high-stability biochar. Our first 50 TPD biochar plant is scaling in the MP-Gujarat corridor and registry listing is in progress. Credits are structured for corporate Scope 3 and net-zero programs. Get in touch to discuss offtake.
