Empowering MSMEs with Energy Efficiency: How the ADEETIE Scheme Can Drive Sustainable Growth

India’s Micro, Small, and Medium Enterprises (MSMEs) form the backbone of the nation’s economy, contributing nearly 30% to the GDP and accounting for almost 50% of the country’s exports. However, these industries are also some of the most energy-intensive and resource-constrained.

With rising energy costs and increasing pressure to reduce carbon footprints, energy efficiency is no longer optional—it’s a necessity.

That’s where the ADEETIE Scheme steps in. And with experts like VRNC by your side, navigating this scheme becomes seamless and impactful.

📊 The Case for Energy Efficiency in MSMEs

  • 🔌 MSMEs have an important role in fulfilling the Nation’s Energy Efficiency Mission.

  • 📈 Studies show that energy efficiency measures can cut MSMEs’ energy bills by 10–25%.

  • 🌍 With India’s ambitious Net Zero by 2070 goal, MSMEs must align with green and clean technologies.

Barriers? Most MSMEs face limited access to capital, technical know-how, and guidance—exactly what ADEETIE and VRNC aim to solve.

⚙️ What is the ADEETIE Scheme?

🧭 Step-by-Step Process to Avail the Scheme

💡 Why Energy Audit is Crucial

An energy audit is the foundation of your ADEETIE application. It:

  • Identifies energy-saving opportunities
  • Helps in selecting appropriate technology
  • Justifies your loan and subsidy claim
  • Serves as a baseline for future savings tracking

Only companies recognised by BEE can conduct it. VRNC have been selected for Empanelment for this activity. Please contact us for applying this scheme.
