ORSL Partners General Carbon to Offer CBAM Advisory

Organic Recycling Systems Limited (ORSL), established in 2008, is partnering with General Carbon Advisory Services Private Limited (GC Advisory), which brings over 15 years of experience since its founding in 2009.

Partnership Announcement

Organic Recycling Systems Limited (ORSL) is partnering with General Carbon Advisory Services Private Limited (GC Advisory). This collaboration aims to expand ORSL's sustainability services, focusing on Carbon Border Adjustment Mechanism (CBAM) advisory and compliance. This move allows ORSL to enter high-value sustainability advisory services, complementing its current cleantech and waste valorisation offerings.

Why CBAM Compliance is Crucial

The EU's CBAM is a major policy designed to put a carbon price on carbon-intensive goods imported into the European Union. It aims to prevent "carbon leakage" and ensure EU industries aren't disadvantaged by imports from countries with less strict climate rules. For Indian manufacturers exporting to the EU, particularly in sectors like steel, aluminum, and cement, CBAM compliance is crucial for market access.

Organic Recycling Systems Limited is an Indian CleanTech and environmental engineering firm focused on sustainable waste management and waste-to-energy solutions. ORSL's expertise covers Municipal Solid Waste (MSW) processing, biogas, composting, and waste valorisation, offering EPC, consulting, and technology licensing.
