Overview and capacity growth India’s industrial energy sector is experiencing massive transformation driven by a 7.4 per cent annual increase in electricity demand from commercial and industrial (C&I) consumers. This surge has pushed record peak […]
The industrial sector is one of the largest consumers of energy in India and accounts for over 45 per cent of the country’s total energy demand. According to the Ministry of Statistics and Programme Implementation’s […]
Today, 45 per cent of all electricity is converted into motion by motors in industries and commercial buildings. The integral optimisation of electric-motor-driven systems, including the use of high-efficiency, well-sized components is the key strategy […]
In India, about 40 per cent of the total electricity consumption is contributed by the industrial sector, with up to 69 per cent of energy consumption attributed to motors and motor-driven systems. Over 2 million […]
The industrial sector is the largest electricity consumer globally, with electric motor systems alone accounting for 70 per cent of its total electricity consumption. The global motors and drives market was valued at $60.10 billion […]
The global net zero transition is transforming industrial strategy in India. Net zero is no longer a distant sustainability goal; it has become central to competitiveness, resilience and long-term growth. India’s pledge to achieve net […]
Energy costs account for a significant portion to the commercial and industrial (C&I) operational costs. Managing these energy costs involves strategies to optimise energy consumption and reduce expenses. This includes monitoring energy use, identifying areas for improvement, […]
Green buildings have long been a key point in discussions around net zero and decarbonisation, and for good reason. In India, buildings consume 30 per cent of the total electricity generated, account for more than […]
Indian industry is increasingly focusing on energy efficiency by adopting efficient motors and drives, with several companies expanding production, leading to market growth. As India’s industrial sector expands, the need for efficient motors and drives […]
A critical pillar of the energy transition is energy efficiency. There are significant opportunities in large, energy-intensive industries and other enterprises engaged in manufacturing and services, for which energy is a considerable cost. The typical […]
Cogeneration (or combined heat and power [CHP]) systems provide steam and power to industrial and other plants throughout the world. Very high efficiency levels, in the range of 75-90 per cent, can be reached, as […]
The corporate sector is making substantial efforts to improve its climate rankings. As per a recent report by ICRA ESG Ratings, India ranked sixth worldwide in terms of corporate climate action, with 127 companies committing […]
Energy efficiency is a crucial element of energy policy, facilitating a reduction in energy consumption, lowering greenhouse gas emissions and yielding economic benefits. The Bureau of Energy Efficiency (BEE) in India has been a leading […]
In today’s dynamic business environment, commercial and industrial (C&I) consumers face mounting pressure to manage energy costs effectively while maintaining operational efficiency. With energy expenses constituting a significant portion of operating budgets, organisations are increasingly […]
In construction and urban development, green and smart buildings represent a significant shift towards sustainability and efficiency. Driven by factors such as energy efficiency, sustainable materials, water conservation, renewable energy integration and indoor environmental quality, […]
Electric motors and motor-driven systems account for approximately 70 per cent of the electricity utilised by industries. According to the International Energy Agency’s (IEA) Energy Efficiency 2022 report, as of 2022, 57 countries had established […]
Thermal power plants (TPPs) are major contributors to India’s electricity supply. However, the conventional method of power generation and delivery exhibits considerable inefficiency, with only a third of the primary energy input translating into usable […]
The industrial sector, accounting for a third of the aggregate carbon emissions, is undergoing rapid development in India. As urbanisation and the expansion of the manufacturing and infrastructure sectors continue, the contribution of industries to […]
The Indian power sector is on the cusp of an energy transition, as the share of renewable energy in the country’s power generation is rising rapidly. Aligned with the nation’s decarbonisation and net zero targets, […]
Energy efficiency plays a key role in driving sustainable energy transition and decarbonising the global economy. It is crucial for achieving sustainable development goals, including climate change mitigation and increasing the share of renewables in […]
