The Industrial Sustainability (IS) team aims to support India’s low carbon growth aspirations by advancing the uptake of green energy and resource efficiency practices. The IS team is working on several different initiatives that include energy transitions in the oil and gas sector, an assessment of alternative fuels like green hydrogen and biofuels uptake across difficult-to-decarbonise sectors in industry and mobility applications, developing optimal decarbonisation trajectory for the steel and cement sector, assessing the prospects on carbon capture utilisation and storage (CCUS) in India and characterising the industrial sector value chains to analyse various aspects such as carbon footprint, financial strength, resource requirements, and jobs supported.
The IS team seeks to hire a highly committed candidate to build and expand our programme in the above mentioned sectors as well as to support government engagements. The candidate should be flexible to work on multiple projects in parallel depending on the priorities of the team. This role demands high quality research to provide direction, support, and insights to the policy planners and industry captains towards decarbonisation options. The candidate should have an active and self-directed interest towards the assessment and production of alternative fuels including green hydrogen and derivatives, biofuels, CCUS, industrial decarbonisation and other related sectors. She/he should be able to perform resource assessments, material-energy balance, techno-economic analysis, emissions analysis, scenario comparisons, etc. The candidate should be willing to collaborate with other researchers in the respective domain and independently drive collaboration with international experts on the topic. Further, the candidate should have good oral and written communication skills and have the capability to independently drive government engagements, draft briefing notes and policy documents.
