ENERGY CONSORTIUM TECHNOLOGY CENTERS OF EXCELLENCE

IIT Madras expertise includes carbon capture and storage, gas hydrates, coal and biomass conversion to useful chemicals, renewable energy systems including applications in desalination and cold storage, electrolyser technologies for CO2 conversion and green hydrogen, energy storage technologies beyond lithium, and distributed energy management including for AC and DC microgrids. These are organized in seven centers of excellence as shown in below figure.

Hydrogen Trains: India’s Next Leap Toward Sustainable Railways

TREND Setter 2023 Spotlight: Kothandaraman Ramanujam’s Work on Sustainable Ammonia Production

TREND Setter 2023 Spotlight: Nitin Muralidharan’s Research Towards Transforming India’s Battery Manufacturing Landscape

TREND Setter 2023 Spotlight: Santosh Kumar Sahu’s Research on Industrial Carbon Efficiency

Climate Economics Course: Redefining Conventional Practices

Blue economy and its bounteous benefits

PROJECTS

India’s energy challenges are problems without borders, requiring technology and engineering solutions. Technology solutions at scale in India are potentially global solutions and industry-academia partnerships give power and momentum to such technology developments.

The consortium would be a strategic partner to help incubate and groom technology that is in the discovery and feasibility stages and to assist those in the pilot demonstration levels through use case scenario validations and techno-economic studies geared to understand scaling and commercialization aspects.

The idea is to enhance and accelerate R&D efforts of the consortium members on topics of mutual interest/ benefit by partnering with IITM.
