DIA seeks to help industries achieve reduction in emission intensity by choosing the right service that gives the best possible outcome from energy audits/systems/process improvements/RE interventions and engages in meaningful discussions to achieve industrial emission intensity targets. It offers opportunities to reduce audit and other consultancy service costs and conduct mass audits in specific sectors to optimize energy consumption leading to emission reduction. DIA works to enhance the reach and quality of audits as well as that of equipment and services to make emission reduction across sectors a reality.
DIA facilitates training programs for auditors, sector experts, industries, entrepreneurs, among others. The training and capacity building programs aim to identify and promote energy champions and provide an avenue for skill development and employment.
DIA certifications aim to recognize and promote champions for decarbonisation and encourage widespread adoption of sustainable practices. Certification will be available for manufacturers, vendors, public sector entities, engineers, energy auditors, and products to promote energy efficiency and renewable energy for a low-carbon growth trajectory.
DIA acts as a bridge between new technology developers and energy users. It facilitates the exchange of ideas, innovations, and best practices between technology providers and industries, enabling the adoption of cutting-edge solutions for decarbonisation. This collaborative approach fosters technological advancements and accelerates the transition to cleaner energy sources.
DIA promotes research in areas such as energy efficiency penetration, implementation of schemes at the state and national levels, adoption of renewable energy technologies, cleaner technologies, re-cycling technologies, and estimation and accounting of GHG reduction. The research work aims to provide meaningful inputs to policy bodies to formulate effective policy frameworks and inform advocacy for wider systemic changes.
DIA will support strategic communication of success stories within the network with external media agencies to create awareness and profile the steps that organisations are taking to make India’s decarbonisation goal a reality. This will be done through media stories, audio-visual documentation, podcasts, and webinars.
