Building the Future of Clean Energy
Farm2Furnace
CIC is creating an integrated, technology-enabled bioenergy business that transforms agricultural waste and energy crops into reliable, traceable green fuel — delivering value for industry, farmers, and the planet.
Solid Biofuels: A Scalable Alternative to Coal
Solid bio-fuels (SBF) from biomass briquettes and pellets offer a sustainable alternative to coal, reducing greenhouse gas emissions and dependence on fossil fuels. By converting agricultural residues and dedicated energy crops into clean energy fuels, CIC supports national energy security, rural incomes, and climate action.
Biomass briquettes and pellets made from renewable feedstocks
Agricultural residue feedstock solves waste disposal problem and boost farmer incomes
Energy plantations feedstock enables high carbon capture per acre and improves productivity, soil carbon and biodiversity of marginal/underutilized lands.
Solid bio-fuels offer similar costs and energy characteristics as coal, making it a technologically and commercially viable substitute
Our Vision
At CIC, we see bioenergy as the next frontier in the global energy transition. Our ambition is to build a fully integrated, technology-driven renewable carbon platform that scales from Farm2Furnace, delivering reliable green energy while creating measurable social and environmental value.
CIC aims to:
Deploy a nationwide feedstock network across India through managed plantations and agricultural residue aggregation through partnerships
Develop modular biomass pelleting plants near major industrial hubs
Forge long-term supply partnerships with industries committed to decarbonization
Create significant rural income opportunities by integrating thousands of farmers
The CIC Difference
Best in Class processes for Emission Reductions and Traceability
We have strong credentials for managing carbon projects based on recognised global standards, ensuring high environmental integrity and transparency. Our projects not only meet international standards when reducing carbon emissions, but also contribute to several UN Sustainable Development Goals which benefit the local communities.
Recognized as a Sustainability Leader
CIC won the SL25 2024 award and was one of the top 25 financially viable solutions for environment and society in Asia Pacific. The SL25 award is co-curated by SAC (part of the Temasek Trust ecosystem), INSEAD Hoffmann Global Institute, WTW and The Straits Times.
Shaping the Industry Conversation
Our leadership team shares insights at various industry leading events, positioning CIC at the forefront of the bioeconomy.
These include:
- AlterCOP's Resilience & Adaptation Day 2024
- Panel at Eco-Business’s Unlocking Capital for Sustainability 2024
Bioenergy is a win-win solution
Bioenergy isn’t just an energy solution—it’s an economic and environmental catalyst. By replacing coal with biomass, CIC is building an ecosystem that benefits every stakeholder.
For Farmers
New and diversified income streams from crop residues, invasive species, and energy crops, backed by transparent payment systems and local aggregation hubs.
For Industry
Cost-competitive, traceable green energy supply that reduces carbon exposure and supports ESG commitments.
For Governments
Improved energy security, lower imports, improved farm incomes and measurable progress toward national climate goals.
For the Planet
A scalable pathway to cut greenhouse gas emissions and reduce air pollution from crop residue burning.
For Shareholders
Opportunity to generate attractive returns on capital whilst taking positive climate action and contribution to enhanced livelihood opportunities for vulnerable farmers.
Our CAPS Model
CIC’s CAPS model is our blueprint for delivering bioenergy at scale—integrating every stage of the value chain to ensure reliability, cost-efficiency, and traceable climate impact.
