India’s energy security

New Era Cleantech is on the mission to realize India’s vision of "Aatamanirbhar Bharat" (Self Reliant India) to use clean gasification technology for the conversion of coal and other raw materials into chemical feedstock

New Era is a proud “Title Sponsor” for upcoming Gasification India 2023 conference held at NDMC Convention Center, New Delhi.

The theme of the conference is “Pathway towards meeting the change obligation. For more information, visit – https://missionenergy.org/gasification2023/

Policy shift creating a favorable ecosystem
for gasification projects

Our Vision

The sole vision for us is to make gasification a commercial success for India. The gasification technology is a net-negative emissions technology that aligns with India’s commitment towards NDC, a climate action plan. Gasification produces syngas, which is converted to produce clean and economically attractive chemical feedstock. Along with low-cost carbon capture, it can cost-effectively decarbonize the industrial, power, fertilizer, and chemical sectors.
