Delta Electronics India has partnered with Ventus Energy Consultancy to reduce its carbon footprint in India.
The company has signed a power purchase agreement with Ventus Energy to source 9.6 million wind power units annually, reducing carbon emissions by 6,979 metric tons.
The electricity would also be sourced from wind farms in Tirunelveli, Tuticorin, and Tiruppur districts through a 12-year agreement signed with the state electricity board — Tamil Nadu Generation and Distribution Corporation (TANGEDCO).
The wind power will be used to power Delta’s manufacturing facilities in Tamil Nadu. This move is expected to reduce the company’s dependence on fossil fuel-based electricity.
The company has planned to expand its renewable sourcing across its facilities in the country by exploring smart grid innovations and implementing real-time monitoring powered by its own automation and Internet of Things (IoT) technologies.
Thought leadership:
In a press release, Benjamin Lin, President, Delta, said, “Integrating renewable energy into our operations aligns our growth with India’s climate goals and accelerates our global net-zero vision. Collaborations like these are key to building a resilient and responsible energy ecosystem.”
“These PPAs are more than transactions — they are part of a long-term strategy to decarbonize our operations and contribute meaningfully to India’s green transition. They also reaffirm our commitments under global frameworks like RE100 and the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi),” said Niranjan Nayak, the company’s managing director.
P. Vijayabaskaran, Consultancy Director, Ventus Energy, said, “As Delta’s renewable energy demand grows, we are committed to enabling this scale-up through strategic power procurement and regulatory alignment.”
