Pharmaceutical sector is one of the largest industrial sectors in India and has been a power intensive industry. In addition to this, it is one of the largest employments generating industry, having said so it is also one of the largest contributors to the Carbon emissions in the environment. With increase in global demand the production capacities have been increased but many of the sectors continue to operate on the similar model as they used to operate in the past decade, which is not the sustainable model in the long run especially in lieu of the global warming and deteriorating climatic conditions. In continuation to the earlier study carried out on "Market Analysis of Energy Management in Pharmaceuticals and Steel Industry in Maharashtra" - ISSN NO : 2249-7455. This article studies the possibilities for deployment of new and clean energy for bulk power consuming industry like Pharmaceuticals Sector, which can help them reduce carbon emission in addition to cost reduction of their power requirement.
