On International MSME Day, senior government officials and industry experts convened in Surat to emphasize the critical need for low-carbon technologies and accessible financing opportunities for the city's textile MSMEs. The workshop, themed ‘Energy-Efficient Technology and Finance’, was organized by the Gujarat Energy Development Agency (GEDA), Gujarat Pollution Control Board (GPCB), South Gujarat Textile Processors Association (SGTPA), and WRI India. The discussions underscored the importance of sustainability in the textile sector as a key driver for India to achieve its Net-Zero target by 2070. The textile MSMEs in India are significant contributors to carbon dioxide emissions, generating approximately 2.7 billion tonnes annually—equivalent to the emissions from 230 million passenger vehicles. However, initiatives like the Perform, Achieve and Trade (PAT) scheme by the Bureau of Energy Efficiency have successfully reduced car...

  Concentrated Solar Power (CSP) plants represent a remarkable fusion of cutting-edge technology and renewable energy principles. Among the various methodologies within CSP, Parabolic Trough Systems stand out as a significant contributor to the global pursuit of sustainable electricity generation. Central to the efficacy of Parabolic Trough Systems are steam turbines, which play a pivotal role in converting solar energy into electricity, thereby shaping the landscape of solar power generation.   Understanding Parabolic Trough Systems Parabolic Trough Systems are a form of CSP technology that employs curved, parabolic-shaped mirrors to concentrate sunlight onto a receiver tube positioned along the focal line of each trough. The concentrated solar energy heats a fluid, typically a synthetic oil, flowing through the receiver tubes. This heated fluid then transfers its thermal energy to water, generating high-pressure steam.   ...

Climate change, driven by an excess of carbon emissions, poses significant challenges to our global ecosystem. Elevated temperatures, altered wind patterns, diminished freshwater sources, disrupted wildlife cycles, ozone layer depletion, and melting polar ice caps are among the adverse effects we face. A primary contributor to this environmental crisis is the emission of carbon dioxide (CO2) from industrial operations and transportation. In the context of industrial practices, steam turbines play a pivotal role, particularly in factories where numerous processes require heat. Boilers are utilized to convert water into steam, which is subsequently directed through a Pressure Relief Valve (PRV) to regulate its pressure. However, this process often results in significant steam wastage. Addressing this inefficiency in steam utilization not only presents an opportunity for operational improvement but also aligns with corporate sustainability goals. By optimizing stea...

A titan of the global textile scene, India's industry holds 4% of the market, a vibrant blend of ancient and modern. From age-old handlooms to capital-intensive mills, it employs over 65 million, contributing 2.3% to GDP, 13% to industrial output, and 12% to exports. This economic powerhouse weaves tradition and technology into a tapestry of India's success. The seeds of India's textile might were sown in 1818 near Kolkata, but it wasn't until 1854 that "Bombay Spinning and Weaving Company," the brainchild of Parsi entrepreneur Cowasjee Nanabhoy Davar, took root in Mumbai and kickstarted large-scale production. Fast forward 168 years, and India has blossomed into the world's second-largest textile producer, boasting over 3,400 mills humming with the energy of 50 million spindles and 842,000 rotors – a testament to a journey from a single pioneer's vision to a global economic powerhouse.
