Decarbonizing Steel in the Global South: JSW Group’s Climate Strategy
Parth Jindal and Prabodha Acharya of JSW Group join Climate
Rising to discuss how one of India’s largest industrial conglomerates is
reducing the carbon intensity of its steel business while scaling
infrastructure for a fast-growing economy. They share how JSW built vertically integrated operations—from power to cement to ports—through industrial symbiosis, and why energy efficiency, renewable power, and circular practices are at the heart of its decarbonization roadmap.
The conversation explores India’s dual challenge: meeting
rising domestic steel demand while managing its climate vulnerability. Parth and Prabodha explain JSW’s green investments, hydrogen pilots, carbon capture initiatives, and why cost competitiveness, stakeholder pressure, and industrial policy shape the path forward.
This is part of our Global South series, which also
features Tata Power and organizations in Brazil at the intersection of business and climate. Explore more episodes at climaterising.org.
