Currently, 76% of India's energy is generated through fossil fuels, indicating a heavy reliance on non-renewable and carbon-intensive sources. The chemical sector is identified as the second highest energy-intensive industry in India. This high energy demand underscores the sector's significant role in the country's overall energy consumption. Despite its energy intensity, the chemical sector directly contributes only approximately 4% to India’s greenhouse gas emissions. However, its importance lies in its role within various supply chains, including fertilizers, pharmaceuticals, construction, and polymers. The Confederation of Indian Industry (CII) study outlines a phased approach to achieve net zero emissions in the chemical sector: Phase I: Focuses on immediately implementable solutions that can bring significant improvements in the short term. Phase II: Highlights solutions that are evolving in maturity and technological feasibility, such as increasing the use of Green/Blue hydrogen. Phase III: Targets high-potential opportunities that currently have technological immaturity, such as Carbon Capture, Utilization, and Storage (CCUS). The ultimate goal is for India to achieve net zero emissions by 2070, which requires sustained efforts across various sectors, including the chemical industry, due to its pervasive role in the economy and supply chains.

Today's Manufacturing Must-Reads! Jakson Green announced on Wednesday that it has secured an order from NTPC to set up a cutting-edge plant in Lara, Chhattisgarh, to produce 4G ethanol from flue gas. This facility will generate 10 tonnes of 4G ethanol daily using #advanced carbon capture technology from Veolia Carbon Clean, capturing 25 tonnes of CO2 per day from power plant emissions, significantly reducing #greenhouse gas emissions. Additionally, the plant will produce 3 tonnes of green hydrogen per day using a 7.5 MW electrolyser. The captured CO2 and green hydrogen will be converted into 4G ethanol through advanced microbial fermentation #technology provided by LanzaTech Inc. Jakson Green will act as the licensing, engineering, procurement, and construction (LEPC) partner for this ambitious project, which is expected to commence operations within two years.

The tracking by Trendeo analysts of industrial projects announced in September was marked by investments in the electronics sector amounting to USD 18 billion, representing 42% of the total announced amounts. The largest investment was announced by Tata Electronics, which plans to invest USD 8.5 billion to set up a new semiconductor factory in Dholera, Gujarat, India. Furthermore, the electricity and gas sector totaled USD 5.4 billion in investments in September, including five hydroelectric projects in India (notably one by THDC India Limited Official) for a total of USD 3.6 billion. We also recorded investments in the pharmaceutical sector (including a USD 2 billion project by Johnson & Johnson), totaling USD 4.8 billion, and in waste and material recovery (a USD 1.3 billion project by Woodland Biofuels Inc.), with a total of USD 2.5 billion in investments. In addition, there are 14 new projects in the agri-food sector, 9 projects in electrical equipment, and 8 each in chemicals and metallurgy. The most job-creating project this past month is from Envision Energy AESC, which plans to invest USD 1 billion to create a new factory in Spain for manufacturing machines used in green hydrogen production, potentially creating 1,000 new jobs. 🏬 The top project according to our Factory of the Future rating is the new synthetic graphite production plant planned by the Indian company SKI US, operating under the name Birla Carbon, in the United States. The plant will use a new continuous process to produce synthetic graphite, which has been shown to improve cell energy and power density by 4% compared to synthetic graphite produced by the batch Acheson process. The plant will not use any raw materials sourced from entities designated as Foreign Entities of Concern (FEOC). Birla Carbon's patented process for producing battery-grade graphite reduces manufacturing energy requirements by 17%, decreases carbon dioxide emissions by 60%, and enhances worker safety by limiting exposure to chemicals. The company will offer training and internship opportunities to build a pool of employees and will subsidize childcare services to help new parents work at its site. 👨🏻💻 We provide demonstrations of our global database via video call or in person upon request.
