Bringing Together Large Power Consumers and Clean Energy Solution Providers

Mercom India will host the 3rd edition of the Nagpur C&I Clean Energy Meet in December 2026. Designed specifically for commercial and industrial energy consumers, the event will bring together C&I businesses and clean energy solution providers to help businesses understand their clean energy options and make better-informed energy decisions.

Maharashtra is one of India's largest renewable energy markets, supported by a strong industrial and commercial consumer base and growing adoption of solar, open access, captive power, and other clean energy solutions. As of June 2026, the state had 19.3 GW of installed solar capacity, while cumulative solar open access capacity stood at 5.8 GW. Open access accounted for 43.1% of Maharashtra's cumulative large-scale solar capacity, underscoring the growing role of C&I consumers in the state's clean energy market. Nagpur is also emerging as an important solar manufacturing hub, with investments in solar modules, cells, ingots, and wafers strengthening the region's clean energy ecosystem.

For commercial and industrial businesses, managing electricity costs, improving energy resilience, and meeting sustainability goals are creating greater interest in rooftop solar, open access, captive power, energy storage, and other renewable energy solutions. At the same time, changes in banking provisions, tariffs, regulations, financing conditions, technology, and project economics mean businesses need current market information to understand which solutions make the most economic and operational sense for them. Maharashtra's evolving market is also increasing the importance of matching renewable generation with electricity consumption patterns and evaluating how different procurement options can work together.

Backed by Mercom India's proprietary clean energy research and market intelligence, the C&I Clean Energy Meet goes beyond connecting buyers and suppliers. C&I consumers can gain insights into market, policy, tariff, regulatory, technology, and financing developments affecting their businesses; compare procurement options and project economics; and engage directly with relevant clean energy solution providers who can help them evaluate and implement their clean energy strategies. Solution providers, in turn, can engage with pre-screened C&I buyers with genuine energy requirements, creating more relevant conversations and opportunities to build long-term business relationships.
