ATGL is a key private sector entity in India, focused on developing CDG networks to supply PNG to various sectors and CNG to the transport sector.  

The use of PNG and CNG aligns with the government’s objective to increase the share of natural gas in India’s energy mix from 6% to 15% by 2030, due to its affordability, reliability and environmental benefits. 

ATGL CFO Parag Parikh said: “Participation from the global lenders reinforces the potential of city gas distribution in its role as transition fuel. This financing framework will drive ATGL’s sustained growth and will be a stepping-stone for future financing based on its capital management plan, which will create a long-term value for all our stakeholders”. 

In April, ATGL’s subsidiary, Adani TotalEnergies Biomass, commenced phase one operations at its Barsana Biogas Plant in the state of Uttar Pradesh.  

Earlier this year, ATGL formed a partnership with INOXCVA to boost India’s liquified natural gas infrastructure.
