Government Initiatives and Policies
India's energy efficiency retrofits sector is heavily driven by government policies for enhancing energy performance in the existing building stock. The Bureau of Energy Efficiency (BEE) is at the forefront of promoting retrofitting by way of regulation and incentives. Initiatives such as the National Energy Efficiency Plan, combined with state-specific policy, are increasing investments in energy-efficient technology. Enforcement of the Energy Conservation Building Code (ECBC) requires energy efficiency regulations in buildings, hence creating demand for retrofitting. Furthermore, establishment of carbon trading schemes, e.g., the Perform, Achieve, and Trade (PAT) scheme, encourages industries to minimize energy consumption, further pushing the market for retrofits. Such government-sponsored initiatives aid in addressing energy demand while fulfilling sustainability objectives, spurring market development. For instance, Energeia, a leading energy service company (ESCO), plays a key role in enhancing sustainability and energy efficiency in India. It provides services like Energy Savings Performance Contracts (ESPCs), energy audits, retrofitting, and energy management systems. Energeia has helped clients like LG Electronics and The Leela Hotels reduce energy use and carbon emissions. Committed to sustainability, the company aligns with India's government initiatives and contributes to the UN Sustainable Development Goals, with plans for further expansion.
Rising Adoption of Smart Building Technologies
Smart building technologies are transforming the energy efficiency retrofits landscape in India. The integration of Internet of Things (IoT) sensors, advanced energy management systems (EMS), and automated lighting and HVAC systems is becoming more prevalent. These technologies enable real-time monitoring of energy consumption, leading to more efficient building operations and reducing wastage. As businesses and industries focus on operational efficiency, the adoption of smart technologies in existing buildings is growing, furthering India energy efficiency market growth. These retrofits not only enhance energy efficiency but also improve occupant comfort, making them attractive for both commercial and residential spaces. The increased emphasis on digitalization and automation in facilities management further supports the growing demand for energy efficiency retrofits. For instance, as per a 2024 research study, building energy consumption constitutes 37% of India’s annual primary energy use and is rising at 8% annually. A comprehensive energy audit at Siksha 'O' Anusandhan University’s Campus 1 in Bhubaneswar identified key energy conservation opportunities (ECOs), leading to proposed annual energy savings of 47,28,178 kWh. By implementing measures like replacing ceiling fans with BLDC fans, switching to LED lighting, using variable-speed drives, and applying solar-reflective paint, the university could save INR 3.19 crore per year with an investment of INR 21.33 crore. The initiative followed the Odisha Energy Conservation Building Code (OECBC), which can reduce energy consumption by up to 30% in existing buildings.
