With climate change being recognised as a more immediate threat, energy efficiency has taken center stage in the priority list of nations, economies and companies that aim to be sustainable, going forward. India has set a target of achieving Net Zero by and to meet half of its energyneeds from renewable sources by 2030. Currently, the country ranks fourth in the world in terms of carbon dioxide emissions, after China, the United States and the European Union. Upgrading to higher efficiency technology is the need of thehour while there is a lot of interest in sustainability, many companies may notknow that the technology needed to help them to meet their energy efficiency goals and reduce their energy costs is already available. Upgrading to highefficiency motors and drives is one of the simplest and most cost effective ways toreduce industrial energy consumption and related greenhouse gas emissions. Theoverall impact of upgrading from outdated systems to the latest energy efficient technology can be staggeringly high for the planet. For instance, switching the world 300 million odd industrial motor driven systems to better optimised and high efficiency options could potentially cut down global electricity demand by up to 10. If manufacturers across sectors are willing to commit to these changes and shift to a more sustainable business growth model, it will be a huge boost for India climate action plan. Investing in energy efficiency can guarantee long term benefits while some businesses still feel that the initial investment and upfront costs acts as a hurdle, many have realized that the quantum of return on investments on the cost of adoption of energy saving measures shows rapid payback. And this is across industries be it a production led industry like cement, or a service led industry like hospitality. These sentiments are reflected in a recent energy efficienc
