BENGALURU (India CSR): Delta Electronics India, a prominent player in energy and power management solutions in India, has signed a future-oriented Power Purchase Agreement (PPA) to significantly scale up its renewable energy usage, marking a major step toward decarbonizing its operations. Facilitated by Ventus Energy Consultancy Private Limited, this strategic transition is projected to reduce Delta’s carbon footprint by approximately 6979 metric tons annually.
Wind Power Commitment
Under the agreements, Delta will source a combined 9.6 million units of wind-generated power annually to power its manufacturing and operational facilities in Tamil Nadu. This transition is expected to significantly reduce the company’s dependence on fossil fuel-based electricity and cut approximately 6,979 metric tons of carbon emissions annually, as per conservative industry estimates.
Leadership Statement Vision
Benjamin Lin, President of Delta Electronics India, said, “At Delta, we believe in leading by example. Integrating renewable energy into our operations aligns our growth with India’s climate goals and accelerates our global net-zero vision. Collaborations like these are key to building a resilient and responsible energy ecosystem.”
Long-Term Power Agreement
The electricity will be sourced from wind farms located in Tirunelveli, Tuticorin, and Tiruppur, and supplied via TANGEDCO’s grid under a 12-year agreement.
ESG Milestones Achieved
Delta’s ESG initiatives are deeply embedded into its business operations. Delta’s energy-efficient products enabled global electricity savings of over 45.5 billion kWh between 2010 and 2023—resulting in 23.84 million tons of CO₂ emissions avoided. In 2023 alone, the company achieved a 39% reduction in Scope 1 and 2 emissions compared to its 2021 baseline.
