Indian textile industry contributes ~2% to the national GDP accounting for ~4% of the global trade in textiles and apparel. About 168 designated textile units in India together account for ~2.71 MTOE of energy consumption, ~9.27 MTCO2e of emissions and offer an energy-saving potential of 0.234 MTOE. Leading textile industries in India have announced several energy efficiency initiatives as part of their decarbonisation and net-zero commitments. Given this, a one-day sectoral workshop on “Best Practices in Energy Efficiency & Decarbonisation in Textile Sector” was organized on 8th December 2022 under ASPIRE programme at Raymond Ltd. (Chhindwara, India). During the workshop, stakeholders deliberated on various best practices and technology interventions required to accelerate the decarbonisation of the textile sector, which is both resource and energy intensive. Amongst the various innovative and new-age global technologies presented during the workshop, Alchemie’s waterless smart dyeing and finishing technology were identified by stakeholders as one of the potential solutions for reducing industrial energy consumption. Alchemie Technologies (Alchemie) is a UK-based technology company with a mission to transform the textile industry with clean-tech digital manufacturing solutions that eliminate the environmental impact of polluting textile processes. Its digital approach to textile dyeing and finishing enables a step towards sustainability.
