REnergy Dynamics (RED), a leading player in India’s bioenergy sector, entered into a strategic alliance with GMM Pfaudler, a global leader in industrial technologies, systems, and services. The partnership positions RED as one of the first companies in India to manufacture paddle agitators locally. This initiative aligns with the Government’s ‘Make in India’ program.

Commercial Production Begins in Gujarat

RED-GMM has begun commercial production of paddle agitators at a state-of-the-art facility in Gujarat. The facility will supply critical equipment to India’s growing Compressed Biogas (CBG) sector. The agitators already operate at marquee projects, including Reliance Industries’ CBG plant. RED executed this plant, which now serves as a flagship reference. Nearly 1,000 CBG plants are expected to start operations over the next three years. The paddle agitator market in India’s CBG sector alone could reach ₹7,500 crore. This growth underscores the strategic significance of the RED-GMM alliance.

Advancing India’s Self-Reliance in CBG Equipment

Kushagra Nandan, Chairman and Managing Director of RED, commented, “This partnership marks RED’s entry into manufacturing and marketing of paddle agitators, essential for India’s CBG industry. GMM Pfaudler’s global footprint and technological expertise make them the ideal partner for this venture”.

Varun Karad, CEO of RED, added, “By being among the first to offer locally manufactured paddle agitators, we are reducing dependence on imports and providing CBG developers access to world-class technology at competitive costs. This is a major step toward making India self-reliant across the CBG value chain.”

GMM Pfaudler Brings Global Expertise

Aseem Joshi, CEO of GMM Pfaudler, said, “RED’s vision, combined with GMM Pfaudler’s global mixing technology expertise, creates a strong foundation for scalable and reliable solutions.”

Devang Bhojani, General Manager at GMM Pfaudler, added, “As India’s CBG sector grows, reliable agitator solutions—especially paddle agitators customized to Indian feedstock and recipes—will be critical. We are the largest agitator manufacturing company in India. This position allows us to provide globally proven solutions that support industry expansion and ensure cost efficiency.”

Pioneering Solutions for India’s CBG Market

As reported by tribuneindia.com, RED and GMM Pfaudler are accelerating local manufacturing of essential CBG equipment through this alliance. They are addressing growing market demand and supporting India’s journey toward sustainable, self-reliant energy solutions.
