Ensuring ESG compliance in steel: A blueprint for a sustainable future
By embracing environmental responsibility, social equity, and strong governance, steel manufacturers can not only meet the demands of today’s market but also pave the way for a more sustainable and ethical tomorrow.
Meeting sustainability goals: How overlooking EPR responsibilities can lead to costly consequences
Many countries require companies to show that they comply with environmental standards before accepting imports. The EU’s Packaging and Packaging Waste Directive sets the strictest recycling and waste disposal requirements, making non-compliance an obstacle to entry into the market. Companies that don’t adhere to these standards could struggle to grow internationally.
Ace Green to build India’s largest LFP battery recycling facility
Ace Green Recycling plans to establish 10,000 metric tons of lithium iron phosphate (LFP) battery recycling capacity per year in India by 2026.
Waaree Energies receives EPD certification for solar panels
The environmental certifications show Waaree’s bifacial mono PERC and TOPCon solar panels are designed to reduce environmental footprints.
Why district cooling is India’s best bet for climate resilience
As the need for decarbonizing cooling becomes more urgent, District Cooling delivered through the CaaS model is expected to gain wider acceptance. Its ability to scale across large developments and provide a more sustainable, long-term solution for India’s rapidly growing cooling demand positions it as a key lever to address the paradox the country faces of meeting the burgeoning cooling needs while honoring our climate commitments.

Marico now meets 67% of its energy requirement through renewable sources
The FMCG major aims to achieve net-zero operational emissions in India (across owned manufacturing units) by 2030 and in global operations by 2040.
Coal-based steelmaking plans jeopardize India’s net-zero target
The “build now, decarbonize later” approach misses the opportunity to develop steel capacity using low-emissions technologies, which could make India a leader in green steel capacity, save on decarbonization efforts later, and reduce current and future stranded asset risk in the industry.
Desalination system based on PVT-driven membrane distillation
Scientists have designed a PVT-driven direct contact membrane distillation system for off-grid applications. The system is intended for desalination purposes in remote areas.
