Delta Electronics India, a leading provider of energy and power management solutions, has taken a significant step toward decarbonizing its operations by signing a long-term Power Purchase Agreement (PPA) focused on renewable energy. The agreement, facilitated by Ventus Energy Consultancy Private Limited, marks a key milestone in Delta’s sustainability journey and is expected to reduce its carbon footprint by approximately 6,979 metric tons per year. Under the terms of the agreement, Delta will source a total of 9.6 million units of electricity annually from wind energy projects.
This clean energy will be used to power the company’s manufacturing and operational facilities located in Tamil Nadu. The wind power will be generated from farms situated in Tirunelveli, Tuticorin, and Tiruppur and delivered through the Tamil Nadu Generation and Distribution Corporation (TANGEDCO) grid over a 12-year period. This transition is a strategic move to reduce Delta’s dependence on fossil fuel-based power and strengthen its renewable energy portfolio. The estimated annual carbon savings reflect a strong commitment to environmental responsibility and support the broader national goals for clean energy development.
Benjamin Lin, President of Delta Electronics India, said in a statement, “At Delta, we believe in leading by example. Integrating renewable energy into our operations aligns our growth with India’s climate goals and accelerates our global net-zero vision. Collaborations like these are key to building a resilient and responsible energy ecosystem.”
Mr. Niranjan Nayak, Managing Director, Delta Electronics India, stated, “Sustainability is central to Delta’s purpose. These PPAs are more than transactions—they are part of a long-term strategy to decarbonize our operations and contribute meaningfully to India’s green transition. They also reaffirm our commitments under global frameworks like RE100 and the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi).”
Sustainability has long been an integral part of Delta’s business model. Between 2010 and 2023, the company’s energy-efficient products enabled global electricity savings of over 45.5 billion kilowatt-hours, which helped avoid approximately 23.84 million tons of CO₂ emissions. In 2023 alone, Delta achieved a 39% reduction in Scope 1 and 2 emissions compared to its 2021 baseline, demonstrating continuous progress toward its environmental targets. In addition to renewable energy sourcing, Delta has developed 35 certified green buildings and operates two net-zero certified data centers across its global operations.
The company is also actively investing in technologies such as smart grids, energy storage systems, and net-zero manufacturing facilities—particularly in India, which is a key market for its sustainability efforts. By partnering with Ventus Energy Consultancy, Delta is not only accelerating its own transition to clean energy but also promoting a cross-industry model for renewable energy collaboration. This initiative aligns with India’s national objective to achieve 500 GW of non-fossil fuel-based power capacity by 2030 and supports the movement toward decentralized, sustainable energy systems.
Ms. Rachna Kango, Senior Director – ESG & Strategic Marketing, Delta Electronics India, mentioned, “Delta is proud to partner with forward-looking enterprises like Ventus Energy Consultancy to accelerate the clean energy transition. These collaborations reflect our belief in inclusive, stakeholder-driven sustainability and demonstrate how ESG goals can be met through innovative and region-specific energy solutions.”
P. Vijayabaskaran, Director, Ventus Energy Consultancy, commented, “With over 15 years of experience in renewable energy and a portfolio managing 750+ MW of wind and solar assets across Tamil Nadu, Ventus Energy Consultancy is proud to support Delta Electronics in its journey toward industrial decarbonization. As Delta’s renewable energy demand grows, we are committed to enabling this scale-up through strategic power procurement and regulatory alignment.”
Looking ahead, Delta plans to expand its renewable energy sourcing across more of its Indian facilities. The company is also exploring innovations in smart grid infrastructure and real-time energy monitoring using its own automation and IoT solutions. With over 81,000 employees, 73 research and development centers, and 55 manufacturing sites worldwide, Delta continues to embed sustainability at the core of its global growth strategy. This partnership also strengthens Delta’s RE100 roadmap and reinforces Ventus’s role as a reliable partner in India’s clean energy transition.
