The company operates two biomass power plants in Punjab. The 8 MW Abohar Biomass Power Plant, spread across roughly 205,681 sq m, runs under a 30-year power purchase agreement (PPA) with PSPCL that began on 5 February 2009.

The 6 MW Muktsar Biomass Power Plant, operated by subsidiary MPPL and spread across roughly 141,830 sq m, functioned under a 20-year PPA with the Punjab State Electricity Board that began on 27 April 2005 and expired in April 2025, leading to ongoing tariff revisions.

Both plants are authorised by PSPCL to connect and run in parallel with the state’s power grid, keeping them integrated into Punjab’s transmission network.
