Driving Sustainability In CV Industry

- Ashish Bhatia

Focusing on drivers of sustainability in CVs, the Frost & Sullivan India Sustainability Leadership Summit 2018 held in June 2018 turned to be an interesting and knowledge inducing event. Based on a principle of sustainable practices aimed at individuals, communities and the world as a whole, the summit touched upon an array of topics like energy transitions, electric vehicles, electric vehicle infrastructure, energy consumption patterns, and adoption of circular economy principles. With conservation of resources at the core, the summit brought to the fore sustainable practices that were unique, attainable and effective. Expressed Raghavendra Rao, Senior Vice President – South Asia, Middle East & North Africa, Frost & Sullivan, “The adoption of a new pattern will require a change in attitude and practices by many in the CV industry.” “The need is for a national framework to integrate development and conserve. The need is for a global alliance as far as CVs are concerned,” he said.
