Powering Progress the Green Way
‘Energizing Change: New Wave in Bioenergy’ seminar, organized by Hyderabad International Trade Expositions Ltd (HITEX) at HITEX Exhibition Center on July 15, 2025, assembled industry titans, innovators, and sustainability advocates, where innovation meets inspiring ideas. The event was part of the Seminar Series that leads to and is a precursor to Eco Sustain Expo 2025 and India Process Expo & Conference 2025 and formed a lively platform for knowledge exchange and exploring the future of clean energy.
“This seminar is a celebration of innovation and dialogue,” said Srikanth TG, Business Head, HITEX Ltd, in his welcome address, setting the stage for the day of fruitful conversations and creative collaborative thinking.
The one-day seminar was marked by the presence of a panel of experts that included Srinivas Kasulla, Director, Arka BRENStech Pvt Ltd; Pratik Basu, AGM, Business Development, REnergy Dynamics; KC Keshav, CEO & Executive Director – Projects, Atirath Holdings India Ltd; Hurshvardhan Kapoor, Head of Business, PlanET Biogastechnik GmbH; and Vijaykumar Lanka, Managing Director, ARMATEC-FTS India Pvt Ltd.
The Making of India’s Bioenergy Landscape
There could not have been a more opportune time to concentrate on bioenergy during this session. The dual states of Telangana and Andhra Pradesh are becoming a playground for bioenergy initiatives, including agri-residue-based biofuels and biogas decentralized systems.
“The BioEnergy sector not only complements our renewable energy goals but also boosts rural livelihoods and contributes to circular economy models,” stressed Srikanth, as the panelists unpacked the recent breakthroughs in the sector that require further practical steps, addressing challenges, and roadmaps to scale up these solutions to achieve India's renewable energy objectives. This is not only in line with India’s sustainable targets but also contributes to rural economies and a circular economy.
Beyond Compliance: Building Industrial Resilience
The second session pivoted to ‘Industrial Issues and Solutions – Managing Solid Waste, Effluents, and Air Pollution’. With the urban centers facing greater pressure due to the growing environmental challenges, the discussion has underscored the importance of the industries embracing technology-based interventions as well as assertive policies. “We believe this dialogue is vital—not just for businesses, but for our future generations,” underscored the HITEX Business Head.
An Innovation & Collaboration Platform
The seminar shapes the narrative of HITEX’s flagship expo ‘Eco Sustain’ concurrently held with ‘India Process Expo & Conference’-IPEC, which is scheduled for August 22-24, 2025. Eco Sustain Expo 2025 is all set to host 113 exhibitors from 15 states and 39 cities across India, representing Air Pollution Control, BioEnergy, Cleaning & Sanitation, Effluent Treatment, Recycling, and Solid Waste Management.
