India’s industrial economy is being rewritten. We track every page.
Carbon regulations, rising energy costs, and geopolitical shocks are rewriting the economics of steel, aluminium, cement, fertilisers, freight and power. We go into the numbers and name the regulations to help you understand the impact on your business.
India’s 2035 NDC and What It Actually Means for Industrial Decarbonisation
CBAM and Indian Aluminium: Why Scope 2 Electricity Is the Decisive Variable
India’s Power Sector Transition: Coal Decline, Renewable Surge and What It Means for Industry
We cover the economics of each sector independently — with dedicated articles, CCTS GEI data, and CBAM cost analysis.
Production routes, regulatory exposure, energy costs, and competitive positioning. State-by-state where it matters. Numbers a CFO can take into a board review.
Blast furnace versus electric arc economics, hydrogen-based ironmaking, CBAM compliance, scrap strategy, and the green-steel taxonomy. India targets 300 MMT capacity by 2030.
Electricity is everything. CBAM covers Scope 2. CCTS targets are plant-level and drawn from the Official Gazette. Secondary recycling holds India’s lowest CBAM cost position.
Limestone decarbonisation, alternative fuels, clinker substitution via fly ash, and Scope 3 supply chain logistics. Navigating CCTS targets for India’s second-largest emitting sector.
86% of LNG sourced from West Asia. The decarbonisation path runs through green hydrogen and the HPO. CBAM exposure for green ammonia exports is effectively zero.
Indian Railways has electrified 99.6% of its broad gauge network, insulating it from the Hormuz shock. Road freight is the harder problem, but the war has widened rail’s cost advantage.
Coal generation fell 3% in 2025 — the first structural decline since 1973. We track REC, GEF (0.710 tCO₂/MWh), CCC trading on regulated exchanges, and the RE transition.

We write for people who read the gazette notifications.
We track what comes out of BEE, MNRE, MoEFCC, CEA, and CERC — and translate it into what it means for each sector, rather than just summarising the notification.
Independent research on India’s industrial decarbonisation. All analysis draws on publicly available information. No sponsored research, no investment advice — period.
Monitoring the gazette, not the headlines
We read official notifications — BEE, MNRE, MoEFCC, CEA, CERC — and translate what they mean for each sector’s production economics.
Tariffs, fuel, open access — priced
How power tariffs, fuel prices, and open-access economics change production costs across the six sectors. State-by-state, not national averages.
Actual certificate costs, not ranges
We calculate CBAM and CCTS costs using live EU ETS prices and verified intensities. Numbers a CFO can take into a board review.
Connecting policy to capital
We connect energy markets and carbon policy to what they mean for capital allocation and competitive positioning within each sector.
The regulation that moved, the cost curve that shifted.
Every month: the regulation that moved, the cost curve that shifted, and what it means for each of the six sectors. Written for people who need to act on this.
