The reports cover the cement, aluminium, and Micro, Small and Medium Enterprises (MSME) sectors.
Strategies include prioritising refuse-derived fuels, clinker substitution, scaling up Carbon Capture, Utilisation and Storage (CCUS), and implementing the Carbon Credit Trading Scheme.
The roadmap suggests transitioning to Round the Clock Renewable Energy (RE-RTC) power and enhanced grid connectivity in the short term, adopting nuclear power in the medium term, and integrating CCUS in the long term.
The key levers for MSMEs include deploying energy-efficient equipment, adopting alternative fuels, and integrating green electricity.
The reports were prepared in consultation with line ministries/departments, industry stakeholders, research institutions, and knowledge partners.
