India Energy Efficiency Consulting Market Trends:

Regulatory Push through PAT Scheme

The Perform, Achieve and Trade (PAT) scheme rolled out by the Bureau of Energy Efficiency has played a key role in driving energy efficiency efforts in India’s industrial sector. It sets energy-saving targets for major industries, including cement, steel, textiles, and paper. If these targets are met, companies can earn Energy Saving Certificates (ESCerts), which they can trade with other firms. This system has created strong financial and regulatory pressure on companies to improve their energy performance. Additionally, umpteen firms do not have the internal resources or expertise to fully understand and meet these targets. As a result, they turn to consultants who can help with audits, strategy, reporting, and documentation. Consulting firms offer practical guidance on how to save energy without hurting productivity. As more sectors are added under PAT, the demand for such expert support is expected to grow steadily across the country.

Industrial Cost Pressures in Energy-Intensive Sectors

Industries like steel, cement, and fertilizers use massive amount of energy in their operations, and energy costs often make up a big chunk of their expenses. With raw material prices changing and global competition increasing, these companies are under pressure to cut down on costs. Improving energy efficiency is one of the most effective ways to reduce spending. However, most companies lack the in-house skills to identify and apply the best energy-saving options, which has further surged the demand for consulting firms. They help with on-site audits, identify gaps, suggest upgrades, and calculate cost savings. Their advice helps companies invest in the right technology and processes. As energy costs have such a direct impact on profits, especially in these sectors, companies are more willing to invest in consulting support, which is helping to grow the energy efficiency consulting market among industrial clients.

Digitalization and Smart Energy Management Adoption

India's energy efficiency consulting industry is going through a huge change, fueled by the infusion of digital technologies like the Internet of Things (IoT), Artificial Intelligence (AI), and data analytics. These technologies are being used by consultants to track, analyze, and optimize the usage of energy in real time. Smart meters, Building Management Systems (BMS), and cloud platforms are now the norm within the consultants' arsenal, enabling clients to access detailed information regarding their energy use patterns and spotting inefficiencies within operations. With the use of digital twin models and predictive maintenance, energy saving is further facilitated through simulation-informed decision-making. As the cost of digital infrastructure decreases and becomes more mainstream, small and medium enterprises (SMEs) are similarly adopting smart energy solutions. This digital transformation not only enhances the precision and scalability of consulting services but also generates demand for consultants who have the ability to integrate engineering knowledge with software and data science skills. Proof of this digital revolution is India's ambitious initiative to deploy 250 million smart meters by 2027, which offers a $20 billion energy management opportunity. As of October 2024, around 14.5 million smart meters have been deployed, with 117.7 million meters being awarded under the Advanced Metering Infrastructure Service Provider (AMISP) program.
