Case study – Pathway towards Net Water Positivity
Sculpt Partners benchmarked water consumption practices for an EU-headquartered renewable energy player in India and recommended optimisation initiatives
Challenge
- Indian subsidiary of a leading energy company headquartered in the European Union (EU)
- Four full-scale plants in India with 200 MW installed solar capacity and an additional 1 GW pipeline
- Significant and persistent variation in per capita water consumption practices across the solar energy plants
- Required further investigation to identify root causes and recommend initiatives to optimise water usage
Our approach
- Conducted a benchmarking assessment to identify water consumption norms for solar Renewable Energy (RE) companies in India
- Reviewed water consumption practices across the four plants and diagnose underlying issues driving variation
- Drew insights from contemporary water savings and optimisation initiatives
- Recommended plant-level initiatives to optimise water consumption and move towards net water positivity
