Lighting to Livelihood: Innovating for Impact
By
Nitin Akhade

Date: Wednesday, 4th September 2019 | Time: 4:00 pm
Abstract: India is one of the fastest-growing economies in the world. In order to keep the economic growth aligned with climate change commitments, India needs to accept the concept of responsible production and consumption of clean and affordable energy at the source. Such responsible actions will not only help in ameliorating the lifestyles of rural communities but will also help in sustaining the economic growth without diluting on climate change commitments. The per capita electrical energy consumption has to improve and be par with the global average for delivering the growth. The average per capita electrical energy consumption in India is 1122 kWh as compared to a global average of 2674kWh. In order to boost the rural economy and bring the quality of life to those unserved and under-served areas of India, a clean and reliable supply of electrical energy is of utmost importance. In this context, decentralised electrical energy which is generated and consumed at the source is not only economical but also helps alleviate poverty for the deprived section of society. Growing awareness, falling prices, technology improvements, and innovative business models are making Decentralised Renewable Energy (DRE) systems, a preferred choice for consumers and policymakers across the globe. What makes DRE even more attractive is its potential in triggering development impacts for communities by enabling income-generating opportunities, improving quality of education, health and sanitation, financial inclusion through banking, and overall quality of life. The lifestyle and growth aspirations of the Indian people can be rapidly met using clean and modern forms of energy, combined with DRE, energy efficiency, and related interventions. The session will discuss challenges in developing grassroots-level innovation that follows the principle of adoption, accessibility, and affordability. The session will discuss how last-mile innovation can help rural communities to enhance their livelihood.
About the Speaker: Mr. Nitin Akhade is leading the technology and market efforts at Clean Energy Access Network, New Delhi. Nitin is regularly interacting with 150+ energy practitioners across India. He holds Master in Energy Engineering from Grenoble Institute of Technology, France and University Polytechnic Catalonia, Barcelona. He also holds Executive degree in energy management from Grenoble Ecole de Management, France.
All are cordially invited.
