WRI, CII Launch Alliance to Drive Clean Energy in Industry

09 Sep 2025 CW Team

WRI India and the Confederation of Indian Industry (CII) have jointly launched the CI-NERGY Alliance – Steering Energy Transitions to accelerate clean energy adoption within India’s commercial and industrial (C&I) sector. The initiative was unveiled during Connect Karo 2025 in New Delhi.

The alliance seeks to support India’s broader climate goals—achieving 50 per cent of power capacity from non-fossil fuel sources by 2030, and net zero emissions by 2070. Given that the C&I sector is among the highest electricity consumers in the country, its decarbonisation holds substantial potential through renewables, energy efficiency, and electrification.

Sujay Ghosh, Co-Chairman of the Renewable Energy Council at CII, stated, “This is a timely effort to drive collaboration and create frameworks and models that enable incremental revenue while transitioning to low-carbon pathways.”

The CI-NERGY Alliance will operate as a self-sustaining platform, aimed at aggregating demand, promoting standardised power purchase agreements (PPAs), and facilitating a competitive clean energy market tailored to the C&I segment.

The initiative is expected to play a pivotal role in aligning industrial growth with sustainable energy practices, further reinforcing India’s commitment to energy transition and climate resilience.
