Partner’s Quote:

"India has set itself ambitious targets for growth. This growth will be fueled by massive investment in infrastructure creation and upgradation. In the energy space, I have witnessed the exponential growth journey of the renewables sector, especially solar, over the last few years; the next decade promises to be way bigger as both the country and corporates race towards meeting their net zero commitments.
