As geopolitical disruptions become more frequent and directly impact India’s energy needs(Specially in heavy industries like Construction/Steel/Manufacturing), Energy Self-Reliance is becoming an industrial imperative.
This panel will explore:
- Morbi’s Energy Crisis Highlights the Need for Alternative Industrial Fuels: Shortages of Propane, LPG and Natural Gas During the War PeriodThe Heavy Industry Emissions Challenge: Understanding the carbon footprint of cement, steel, chemicals, paper and glass, and identifying the high-emission processes where technology-led carbon avoidance and capture can make the biggest difference.
- How India’s evolving sustainability landscape and global commitments such as the Paris Agreement are pushing industries beyond targets and towards measurable emission reduction, creating greater demand for scalable technologies that can deliver actual carbon avoidance and capture.
- Exploring why electrification and renewable power alone cannot address every high-temperature and energy-intensive industrial process, and how biomass-based fuels, waste-to-energy and other technology pathways can help industries avoid fossil-fuel emissions at source.
- Understanding the technology pathways available today; from replacing fossil fuels and improving energy efficiency to addressing unavoidable process emissions through carbon capture and how industries can determine where avoidance ends and capture begins.
- From Technology to Tonnes of CO₂ Avoided – What Is Working on the Ground?: Examining real-world industrial applications in India and globally, including Ankur Scientific’s projects such as the Sagar Cement project, expected to reduce around 6,000 tCO₂e annually, and what these deployments reveal about the scalability, economics and effectiveness of carbon avoidance technologies.
- Looking ahead at emerging technologies, integrated carbon avoidance and capture solutions, and innovations that can help hard-to-abate industries reduce emissions at scale while maintaining industrial productivity and competitiveness.
Mr. Ankur will also share insights on Ankur Scientific’s proactive efforts to support affected organizations, including relocation and partnership strategies focused on regions like the UAE.
