Sistema.bio, a global leader in biogas technology and financing solutions for small family farmers, has announced that Next Bharat Ventures (NBV)—the impact investment fund created by Suzuki Motor Corporation in India—has joined its group of strategic partners and investors. The investment marks a major milestone for Sistema.bio as it expands its clean energy and agricultural solutions across India.
Founded in 2024, Next Bharat Ventures was created with the vision of backing entrepreneurs who are building large-scale, sustainable change for India’s underserved population. The fund specifically targets enterprises serving India 2 and India 3 markets, fostering inclusive growth and helping build transformative innovations for the “Next Billion.” NBV’s participation in Sistema.bio reinforces its commitment to supporting mission-driven companies capable of driving impact in rural development, clean energy, and agritech innovation.
With this partnership, Sistema.bio is positioned to accelerate its deployment of biogas systems across rural India and expand its service offerings for farming communities. Its technology enables family farmers to convert organic waste into clean, renewable energy, reducing dependence on fossil fuels and cutting carbon emissions, while simultaneously producing organic fertilizer that improves soil health and crop productivity.
According to Vipul Jindal, Managing Director, Founder and CEO of Next Bharat Ventures, Sistema.bio aligns strongly with the fund’s mission of investing in scalable, innovative businesses that improve lives in rural and emerging communities. He noted that Sistema.bio not only brings advanced and cost-effective biogas technology to villages, but also supports farmers through strong customer service infrastructure, making it possible to scale solutions sustainably and reach remote households.
The new investment will strengthen Sistema.bio’s operations in multiple areas. It will support greater manufacturing capacity and accelerate the company’s research and development work to introduce new product lines tailored to India’s agricultural ecosystem. This includes new systems based on advanced materials, IoT-enabled features for improved monitoring and servicing, and digital MRV (monitoring, reporting, verification) technologies to deliver stronger data-driven insights and improved climate performance. The expansion will further contribute to the decarbonization of agricultural value chains while accelerating financial inclusion and strengthening rural supply chains.
Alexander Eaton, CEO and Co-founder of Sistema.bio, expressed enthusiasm about the partnership, emphasizing the strong alignment of values and the shared commitment to innovation at scale. Eaton noted that the collaboration presents an opportunity to integrate Suzuki’s technological vision with Sistema.bio’s fifteen years of experience serving family farmers around the world. Together, the partners expect to unlock new opportunities that meaningfully improve rural livelihoods while contributing to national sustainability goals.
Sistema.bio’s continued focus on affordable renewable energy, combined with NBV’s network and investment support, is expected to increase adoption of biogas solutions among smallholder farmers and strengthen India’s clean energy transition. The collaboration highlights the growing importance of circular, climate-positive technologies in rural development, offering communities access to resilient, low-carbon solutions that support both economic stability and environmental progress.
