Across diverse sectors, India is undergoing transformative changes. Notable among these shifts is the pressing need to reduce carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions emanating from the construction sector. Simultaneously, there is a discernible transition from a product-centric approach to a more holistic solution-oriented perspective. Moreover, the world is witnessing an unprecedented level of interconnectedness compared to previous years, underscoring the global appreciation for enhanced connectivity and digitalization.

These rapid changes bear specific implications for commercial buildings, where energy consumption remains a critical concern. In fact, high-energy consumers within commercial structures, namely Heating, Ventilation, Air Conditioning (HVAC), and Water Systems, account for a significant 40% of the total energy consumption. Globally, these energy-intensive systems are responsible for a staggering 17% of the world's total electricity consumption and contribute to 8% of global greenhouse gas emissions. It is worth noting that the energy sector itself stands as the largest emitter of greenhouse gases, exacerbating climate change.

Recognizing the adverse implications of these statistics, the industry is actively engaged in efforts to mitigate these challenges and seek effective solutions. Companies like Grundfos, for instance, are at the forefront of addressing these critical issues and are committed to fostering sustainability and energy efficiency in the construction sector.

As India continues its journey towards progress and development, the construction industry's role in driving economic growth and reducing its environmental footprint remains of paramount importance, both domestically and on the global stage.

India, a nation in the throes of rapid development, is recognizing the pivotal role that infrastructure development plays in fostering its growth. The construction industry, a cornerstone of this transformation, is poised to make a substantial contribution, accounting for an estimated 13% of India's Gross Domestic Product (GDP). This surge is being propelled by India's burgeoning population, alongside key growth trends centered on sustainability, digitization, urbanization, and localization, as encapsulated in the concept of Atma Nirbhar or self-reliance.
