With India opposing to any legally binding green emission norms, India’s infrastructure sector is making a conscious effort to do their part to go green. Green infrastructure a concept originated in the United States is to highlight the importance of the natural environment in decisions about land use planning. Currently, all infrastructure projects in India are required to furnish an Environmental Impact Assessment (EIA) report to seek approval from the Government of India (GoI). Likewise, the developmental projects have to acquire the Ministry of Environment and Forests’ (MoEF) consent to commence work. But there are no norms to address the environmental concerns linked with infrastructure development.
Companies in core sector development have already begun to deploy green innovations but there is a need for policy changes. Also many companies have started to invent more in R&D to address green issues. Designing has gained importance in terms of conservation of energy and water. Companies are concentrating on improving their designs to conserve energy and water and thereby improve their profitability. The future looks bright for companies joining the green bandwagon.
