DCM Shriram Ltd. has approved an investment of ₹217 crore to expand renewable energy capacity at the Bharuch manufacturing facility of DCM Shriram Chemicals. The project aims to strengthen the company’s renewable energy integration strategy and support the facility’s growing power requirements.
The planned expansion will add approximately 48 MW of renewable energy capacity, helping provide a more sustainable power supply for the Bharuch facility. The additional capacity is expected to support current operations as well as future expansion requirements at the manufacturing site.
The investment is part of DCM Shriram’s broader focus on improving energy efficiency, reducing dependence on conventional power sources, and increasing the share of renewable energy in its operations. The company has been actively working towards sustainable manufacturing practices across its businesses, including chemicals, sugar, and other industrial segments.
The Bharuch facility of DCM Shriram Chemicals is an important manufacturing location for the company, and the renewable energy expansion is expected to enhance operational resilience while contributing towards long-term sustainability goals.
The project is targeted for completion by June 2027. Once commissioned, the renewable energy addition will further strengthen DCM Shriram’s clean energy initiatives and support its efforts towards reducing carbon emissions from industrial operations.
The move comes amid increasing adoption of renewable energy solutions by industries across India, as companies look to manage energy costs, meet sustainability commitments, and align with national clean energy objectives. Large industrial players are increasingly investing in solar, wind, and other renewable power sources to create a more sustainable energy mix.
DCM Shriram’s latest investment highlights the growing role of renewable energy in powering industrial facilities and improving the environmental performance of manufacturing operations. The company’s continued focus on clean energy integration reflects the broader transition of India’s industrial sector towards greener and more efficient energy solutions.
