Let us Help in your Net Zero Journey

01

Baseline

Detailed assessment of upcoming and existing  facilities for reduction in capital expenditure, current or estimated electricity/fuel consumption and associated emissions, existing efficiency levels, past and ongoing initiatives towards reducing emissions, type of facilities by operational and financial control, data reporting mechanisms, etc. 

 

02

Energy Efficiency Improvements

Identification of action points to eliminate electricity wastage in upcoming and existing facilities, using in-house Sustainability Analytics Hub. The technical recommendations will be assessed from an operational, regulatory, and strategic point of view; before undertaking investments to maximize savings in capital expenditure.

03

Renewable Energy (RE) purchase & Onsite RE Feasibility

As the electricity wastage is taken care of, a feasibility of Renewable Energy purchase and/or captive renewable energy generation is performed. This will take into account own generation capacity, state-wise regulation, lower thresholds on individual PPA contracts, etc.

04

Offset via Certificates

The amount of emissions which cannot be offset by steps outlined in points 2 and 3 is offset via certificates. These include locations where on-site generation and/or PPAs cannot be undertaken.
