Mercom Presentation

Break

This plenary session will provide a roadmap for achieving India's ambitious non-fossil fuel goals. Industry leaders will explore key topics such as ensuring demand and supply continuity, planning and delivery, creating an enabling policy environment, and overcoming challenges to meet interim targets at the speed and scale we need to meet the objectives.

Accelerating India's Energy Transition: Urgency is the Driving Force 

Meeting India's ambitious net-zero goals will require establishing robust and competitive supply chains at a domestic level and utilizing the local workforce, skills, and knowledge. Experts in the session will discuss whether these supply chains are expanded fast enough to meet the growing demand. They will also address the government programs pushing for localization and whether the industrial policies and current investments are sufficient to push expansion.

The Rise of Domestic Manufacturing:  Strategies to Meet Growing Demand

Networking Lunch

Renewable energy projects in India have evolved from standalone solar or wind to fully customized hybrid power projects, often with storage. Power distribution companies are now studying their demand patterns and asking renewable generators to specifically meet peak demand and deliver dispatchable power and 24/7 power with further customization to each state or location. In this session, developers and other stakeholders will discuss the strategies behind meeting distribution companies' requirements and current trends in hybrid power demand.

Made-to-Order: The Future of Hybrid Power Projects

Technology in the renewable energy sector is evolving rapidly as data, AI, and efficiencies drive improvement. How can the private sector, policymakers, and investors create an environment that accelerates innovation and investments to support the development and implementation of advanced technologies? Experts will examine the technologies currently changing the energy landscape and the innovation that is on the horizon.

Networking Break

Green hydrogen is emerging as a key solution to decarbonize hard-to-abate sectors. However, the key to adoption depends on the availability of renewable energy, large-scale manufacturing of advanced technology electrolyzers, and a final customer or off-taker. The panel discussion will debate how the industry plans to make green hydrogen cost competitive by exploring what incentives are required to scale green hydrogen and how to create a market for the end product among heavy industries such as steel, refining, and ammonia sectors.

Cocktail Dinner for Sponsors & Awards Winners

Start-Up Pitch Session

Energy storage is integral to managing the intermittency of renewable energy projects. Efficient storage systems ensure a steady and reliable energy supply, even when the primary sources are not actively generating power. The government of India has been promoting energy storage systems, but the market has been slow to develop.
What are some of the policies and incentives needed to accelerate the development of energy storage in India? Industry experts will discuss the technologies that are enabling expansion, the challenges of incorporating energy storage technologies, the necessary supply chain, and demand drivers.

Energy Storage - Enabling Stable Renewables and Resilient Grids

Large industries and commercial entities across India are continuing to set the agenda to expand renewable energy procurement via open access. As demand increases, so has the appetite for round-the-clock renewable energy. Panelists from C&I industries will discuss the benefits of going green along with the economic advantages

Industrial and Commercial Units Driving Green Energy Agenda

Making renewable energy adoption a more seamless process requires an alignment between the state and central agencies. Developers and policymakers will elaborate on the current roadblocks, explore strategies, and share recommendations for achieving the nation's renewable energy goals.

Renewable Energy Project Development - Creating an Enabling Policy Environment that Supports Renewable Deployment

India's long road to achieving net-zero carbon emissions offers significant long-term investment opportunities in the ever-expanding renewables sector. A panel of investors will talk about a variety of financing options and existing funds that are available for renewable energy companies, projects, and manufacturing. Investors will also discuss the steps involved in securing funds.

Financing the Renewable Energy Sector: Where and How to Secure Funding for the Energy Transition

Now in its 4th year, the Mercom India Renewables Summit 2024 is where players who shape the Indian renewable energy sector meet to address the impact of recent and upcoming policy decisions and the path ahead. It's where collaboration happens, and the deals are made that propel the industry forward.
