SAAF Energy India has entered into a strategic investment agreement and partnership with Bristola USA. This development opens a bridge and two-way technology transfer between the companies and the US and Indian biogas industries, leveraging the ideal convergence of tech co-creation and mutual market access. This partnership further deepens the relationship between the two largest democracies in the world.
With both the US and Indian biogas markets going through a boom cycle, SAAF India and Bristola USA realized the opportunity to integrate our complementary technologies to provide end users in both countries with clean energy. SAAF Energy generates renewable energy and biogas from organic waste through their Indo-German range of customized, modular, plug-and-play anaerobic digesters and containerized membrane upgradation technology, while Bristola provides a safer, more efficient, and more economical solution for cleaning liquid storage facilities through a patented, submersible, robot-based, zero-human-entry tank cleaning system. This strategic platform provides customers in both countries and beyond with a synergistic, lifecycle-oriented, digester solution that is both user friendly and operates fully online.
