Grinding cement requires immense electrical power, resulting in heavy Scope 2 emissions. Discover how Indian manufacturers are systematically neutralizing their electrical carbon footprint and saving millions by capturing waste heat (WHRS) and securing open access renewable energy contracts.
The Zero Carbon Grind: How WHRS and Open Access RE are Rewiring Indian Cement Read More »
CCTS Phase 1 (FY2025–27) was calibrated to be achievable establishing MRV infrastructure and market mechanics without significant financial pain. Phase 2, expected from FY2027–28, will align with India’s 2035 NDC intensity trajectory, and for each of the nine covered sectors the compliance cost step-change will be material. Phase 1 was the handshake. Phase 2 is the contract. Companies that have not begun capital allocation for abatement by FY2026 will face the next gazette notification already behind.
India’s Perform Achieve and Trade scheme has been the mandatory energy efficiency compliance mechanism for Designated Consumers since 2012. The CCTS replaces it as the primary carbon and energy performance instrument from FY2025-26. This analysis maps what changes, what stays the same, what happens to accumulated ESCerts, and how the dual-period transition of 2025-2027 must be managed by entities that were PAT obligated in Cycle 2 and Cycle 3.
