HARIT URJA – MP Edition
02nd December 2025, Hotel Courtyard Marriott, Bhopal, Madhya Pradesh
The global reliance on fossil fuels continues to pose significant challenges, with far-reaching implications for our environment, economy, and society. The pressing need to accelerate emission reduction initiatives and adopt advanced climate change mitigation technologies has never been more critical. Despite the growing urgency, the pace of energy transition remains inadequate, hindered by systemic inertia and short-term priorities.
India is on the cusp of a major transformation standing as one of the world’s largest and most rapidly expanding economies, has pledged to reach net-zero emissions by 2070. India will raise its non-fossil energy capacity to 500 GW by 2030 while meeting 50 per cent of its energy demand through renewables. Also, by 2030, India will reduce 1 billion tonnes of projected emissions and achieve a 45 percent reduction in carbon intensity over 2005 levels. Achieving India’s 2070 Net Zero target will require unprecedented levels of investment, collaboration, and commitment in conjunction with economic growth, energy requirements, environmental consciousness, and technological innovation. This transition to green energy, encompassing solar, wind, green hydrogen, electric vehicles (EVs), and battery energy storage systems (BESS), are driven by both government initiatives and substantial private investments. The shift not only aims at reducing carbon footprints but also holds immense potential to create job opportunities and promote inclusive growth on a global scale.
Madhya Pradesh stands at a transformative juncture in India’s clean energy journey. Home to landmark renewable energy projects like the Rewa Ultra Mega Solar Park, the state has proven its capability to lead large-scale green initiatives. However, the next wave of progress lies in decentralization, regional innovation, and harnessing localized clean technologies to strengthen the energy grid—making it smarter, greener, and more inclusive. With climate resilience becoming central to infrastructure planning, the state’s focus is shifting toward clean tech-driven power distribution, smart energy systems, and community-powered solar
integration. These interventions not only support India’s net-zero targets but also align with local employment, rural electrification, and sustainable industrial growth in Madhya Pradesh.
Theme Focus:
“Empowering Madhya Pradesh: Clean Tech for a Greener Grid” explores how technology, innovation, and community participation can drive the next phase of clean energy adoption. It aims to build dialogue between government, industry, academia, and civil society to enable: Decentralized Renewable Energy Systems Solar Integration at the Local and Grid Level Smart Grid and Digital Energy Technologies CleanTech for Agriculture, MSMEs, and Urban Infrastructure Innovation Ecosystems for Rural Electrification & Energy Access
