Baseline energy audit and benchmarking study for secondary steel sector in India - Lot 2

November 1, 2021
| Energy Efficiency

The project aims to:

i) develop baseline energy/resource consumption figures for Non- PAT industries from six sub sectors in secondary steel sector, to have a basis for energy efficiency improvement.

ii) establish process benchmarks to capacitate stakeholders with necessary information for energy efficiency related decision making.

iii) projecting various scenarios of the sector for decision/ policy makers.

Just Transition: Understanding the implications of moving away from coal

August 1, 2021
| Energy

It is the need of the hour to take a closer look at the fossil-fuel economy, environment, people, market opportunities and other players/stakeholders. An action research agenda in the coal producing belts could create a ground for further reflection and trigger a futuristic worldview that envisages greater inclusion and equity. While transitioning to the envisaged non-fossil fuel economy in time, it is crucial to map implications of coal phase-out and create a blueprint for a proactive planning and an inclusive, fair and humane transition.
