Green Energy Adoption & ESG Readiness Study
Understand how corporate energy buyers evaluate renewable technologies, compare implementation partners, choose financing models, and navigate ESG reporting requirements across facilities and supply chains, so you can sharpen positioning, improve conversion, and prioritise channel strategy.
CONTEXT & RELEVANCE
Why run this survey now
Most enterprises don't lose green energy momentum purely on cost. They stall due to unclear ownership, financing uncertainty, weak emissions data, supplier constraints, and governance gaps, none of which fully show up in ESG dashboards or energy audits.
If you are...
- Corporate sustainability leaders
- Energy procurement heads
- Chief financial officers
- Operations and facility directors
- ESG reporting teams
You're likely facing...
- Strong climate commitments but weak project conversion across operating sites
- Limited visibility into credible renewable options for diverse load profiles
- Fragmented ownership creates slow investment approvals across business units
- Rising reporting demands expose inconsistent emissions data across suppliers
- Positive pilot results without repeatable portfolio adoption across facilities
This will help answer...
- Priority adoption segments
- Investment barrier hierarchy
- Technology consideration pathways
- Partner selection criteria
- Readiness gap roadmap

Renewable Procurement Proposition Testing Among Industrial Buyers (India)
OBJECTIVE
A pan-India energy services provider needed to understand how manufacturing groups , commercial campuses , and data-centre operators compared open-access power , rooftop solar , and green tariffs when shortlisting procurement partners for upcoming portfolio decisions.
WHAT WE DID
We ran a structured survey with 420 energy procurement heads and facility directors , capturing awareness , consideration , contracting preferences, proof requirements, decision roles, price sensitivity, and provider credibility across five industrial corridors.
DELIVERED
The study produced a preference map by buyer cohort, a message territory framework for procurement propositions, a channel lever matrix by corridor, and a prioritised friction list covering credibility, contracting, and internal approval barriers.
