The Ministry of Power has set up a dedicated Centre of Excellence to accelerate industry adoption of clean technologies and thus scale up India’s contribution to the global energy transition. Named Unnat Takniki Pradarshan Kendra (UTPRERAK), the Centre of Excellence seeks to play a catalytic role in improving energy efficiency of Indian industry.

Union Minister of State for Power Krishan Pal inaugurated the Centre at NPTI Badarpur, New Delhi.
“There is a need to manufacture good technology at low cost. UTPRERAK will play an important role in improving energy efficiency of Indian industry; moreover, saving energy will help not just industry, but the nation as well,” said Krishan Pal.
As its name indicates, the advanced industrial technology demonstration centre will demonstrate and showcase energy-efficient technologies in key industry sectors. It will act as an exhibition cum information centre and knowledge repository. It will be a knowledge exchange platform, where best practices from across various key sectors could be diffused among industry professionals through workshops and seminars.
UTPRERAK will also serve as a strategic capacity-building institution and seeks to be a one-stop solution provider for energy professionals from across India for trainings and education in energy efficiency. It is expected to provide intensive training to more than 10,000 energy professionals from the industry and other potential sectors over the next five years.
