On one hand, rapid Industrialization and Urbanization in India have boosted the economic growth of the country and on the other hand, they have led to severely and continuously worsening of air quality in India. This pollution contributes to health issues and demands urgent solutions. One approach is implementing carbon capture plants and cogeneration plants to reduce emissions.
Contributors to increasing Air pollution:
Dust and construction in India produce approximately 59% of air pollution while waste burning creates the rest. Air pollution can also come from smaller, everyday activities: dry cleaning, filling your car with gas, and degreasing and painting operations.Air pollution kills 33,000 people in India every day, and impacts economies because, among others, it disproportionally affects women, newborn and young children.Inefficient energy consumption further adds to the problem, leading to wasted energy and unnecessary emissions. Implementing systems like Distributed Renewable Energy Generation with Uninterrupted Power Supply (DRUPS) can help reduce reliance on diesel engines and lower carbon emissions in industrial areas.
The Role of Clean Energy Solutions
Green Power International provides sustainable energy solutions to combat air pollution in India. Here are some key offerings:
GPI manufactures silent power generators powered by Ashok Leyland engines, which emit fewer pollutants. Using CCUS Technologies to capture and store CO2 emissions from industries. Encouraging green hydrogen as a clean alternative in sectors improves CHPC Solutions’ trigeneration to utilize waste heat from gas cooling, which helps reduce waste and improve efficiency.
Conclusion
Green Power International’s clean energy solutions are essential in tackling India’s air quality challenges. These solutions not only reduce carbon emissions but also promote sustainable energy practices, leading to a brighter and healthier future.
