A recent report submitted by Ernst and Young states that the share of renewable energy in the country’s total energy mix grew from 7.8% (2008) to 12.3% (2013). In real terms, the growth of installed capacity for renewable energy in India has increased from 12.3 GW to 28.1 GW during the same period. Issues such as global warming, climate change, and pollution have exacerbated the need to adopt cleaner technologies, while the need for energy to power India’s economic growth is rising. In order to provide a balance between economic growth, development and the environment; cleaner production strategies coupled with clean technologies is slated to increase resource efficiency, innovation, and reduced cost of environmental management. Rapid economic growth has substantially fueled demand for energy countrywide. The heightened competition for procurement of fossil fuels, prices of petroleum, and stagnant domestic production of energy have propelled India into potential energy crisis. To this end, the need for adoption of cleaner technologies presents a relatively large opportunity for both domestic and international ventures looking to offer products and services in India. Renewable energy, energy efficiency, and water and water waste management in particular are the most important drivers of clean technology in India. With this background, opportunities exist for Swiss entrepreneurs and SMEs to offer products as well as technologies in multiple areas including generation, distribution and storage of clean energy, as well as opportunities for recycling multiple forms of products. Specifically, opportunities exist for providing technology and consulting in the offshore wind energy market. In the biofuel space, there are opportunities for setting up small plants to cater to local populations. Water treatment offers opportunities in the area of technology transfer. This report outlines India’s Cleantech scenario, and is intended to give the reader a succinct overview of this sector, as well as areas of opportunity and challenges. 3 Cleantech in India not only refers to just generation of Renewable Energy but also covers Water and Waste Water Management, Electronic Waste disposal and Recycling. The Clean tech range covers an array of products, services and processes that harness renewable 1. materials and energy sources, dramatically reduce the use of natural resources, and cut or eliminate emissions and wastes. India’s The Renewable Energy (RE) market alone in India is estimated to be worth over US$ 17 Cleantech Billion and is growing at an annual rate of 15%1. Of the total RE potential of the country Industry (estimated to be around 200 GW, only 19.97 GW has been tapped, leaving a huge gap Past and Expected between potential and installed capacity. All forms of RE (wind, small-hydro, solar, biomass and waste to energy) have significant potential in India. The government is looking at Performance, Scope attracting investments in RE of over US$ 200 billion for it to account for 15% of the overall and Size energy basket. On the Water and Waste Water Management front, the Indian Water Resources Ministry plans to invest US$ 50 Billion over the next five years in multiple geographies across the country. While actual data on the generation or import of e-waste is currently not available for India, several studies conducted by various agencies have estimated that the volume of e-waste generated in India will reach 0.7 million Metric Tons (MT) by 2015, and 2 million MTs by 2025. This spells significant opportunities for ventures interested in recovering metals or plastics from e-Waste2. 1.1 Current Market Potential and Scope in India As mentioned earlier, the Indian renewable market is estimated to be worth over US$ 17 Billion, growing at an annual rate of 15%. Wind energy remains dominant, and Swiss companies can take advantage of this market (India is one of the world’s largest wind energy markets). India imports both finished goods as well as technology for wind turbines, windmill blades, wind battery chargers and converters. The Government of India has stated that it has a target of creating 10 GW of biomass power by 2020. This includes the potential to generate energy from both household as well as industrial waste. In a country which experiences, on average, 300 days of sunshine every year, the potential to generate solar power is significantly high. The Government of India has embarked on a plan to produce 1003 GW of solar power by 2022. This is in addition to the potential for products that drive energy efficiency, which is projected to reach US$ 27 Billion in 2018. The market for technologies that target Green Buildings was US$ 3 Billion in 2012. It is estimated that Green Buildings could account for 20% of all construction in India by 2030 (an estimated 80 1 http://www.asa.in/pdfs/surveys-reports/power-and-energy-industry-in-india.pdf 2 http://borjournals.com/Research_papers/Ap_2013/1208M.pdf 4 billion square feet). Smart Grids, yet another innovation in the energy efficiency area, is at a nascent stage in India. The water and wastewater management industry has seen a market potential of US$ 1.2 Billion in the past year, and is expected to grow at 10% for the next five years. Government projects contribute to a little over half of the market in terms of revenues. Increasing urbanization has led to growing demand in water and sewage treatment. Many manufacturing facilities have been forced to adopt water-recycling systems due to scarcity of water. The opportunity in water and wastewater management is exacerbated due to growing public concern, media pressure, and renewed legislation. Over 40% of this market is sustained by imports from the USA alone. In addition, the government of India plans to invest close to US$ 50 billion in this space in the next five years. There is also scope for growth in solid waste management and electronic waste.
