2 Energy Audit at the Haridwar Plant of Mahindra & Mahindra A two member team of Counselors from the Energy Management Vertical conducted a four day detailed Energy audit at the the Haridwar Plant of Automobile major Mahindra and Mahindra from April 16 to 19, The detailed energy audit involved data collection, measurements, data analysis of all thermal & electrical energy consumers like paint shop, assembly line, air compressors, electrical distribution system, motors, pumps, lighting and harmonic level assessment. Specific improvements were suggested for energy efficiency equipments & optimisation of specific energy consumption of the plant. The identified projects covered savings without investment, some medium term investment projects & some capital projects on energy efficient technology up-gradation. The Haridwar Plant of Mahindra & Mahindra is an assembly line for Multi Utility Vehicle Bolero and for the, Alpha mini loader. Training Programme for Energy Professionals AVANTHA organized a two day training Programme on 2-3 May 2013 for Energy Professionals at Hotel Park Plaza in Faridabad The topic of Energy Conservation Techniques' was designed with a view to enrich the Energy Professionals with advanced and emerging trends in this field, which would prove to be relevant and effective for the industry in which they would implement it. The programme was under the BEE-GEF-World Bank Project 'Financing Energy Efficiency at MSMEs. It is part of the project in which Bureau of Energy Efficiency (BEE), Government of India in coordination with Confederation of Indian Industry (CII) has taken up the initiative to enhance the Energy Efficiency of the Mixed Industry in the Faridabad (Haryana) through BEE GEF WB Energy Efficiency Mixed Cluster Program. The objective of the project is to accelerate the adoption of Energy Efficient technologies and practices through knowledge sharing, capacity building and development of innovative financing mechanisms. One of the focus area of the training program was to train energy professionals, to develop knowledge on techniques for effective energy management at design stage itself, so that it results in reducing both thermal and electrical energy consumption in operation. 2

3 Two day Program on Corrosion at Bangalore on May 23-24, 2013 As a part of its efforts to make the industry aware about the various dynamics of corrosion management and to showcase the best practices to combat corrosion, AVANTHA held a two day training Program on 'Corrosion Control Using Effective Paints & Coatings' on May 2013 at Bangalore. When it comes to paints and coatings, the most frequent consideration is about their eventual effects on appearance of the substrate in question. Though improving the appearance is a key attribute of paints and coatings, but somehow additional functionalities can also be procured. Coatings and paints play a significant role in protecting the valuables from corrosion. The training program was attended by companies from different parts of the country. It had eminent speakers from Corrosion Management Committee talking on different dimensions of Corrosion as well as providing on the spot solutions to the captivated audience. 3

4 Training Programme for Energy Professionals CII - AVANTHA organised a two-day training Programme for Energy Professionals on Energy Saving Techniques on May 2013 at Hotel Park Plaza, Faridabad.

6 Spectrum Our Corrosion Management Services: Mission Corrosion Prevention The impact of corrosion on the nation's exchequer is a staggering figure of Rs. 2 lakh crores. Losses due to corrosion are enormous and are not only affecting the economy but also the safety quotient in industry besides the adverse impact on the environment. Not many are aware that atmospheric corrosion may be affecting our cultural heritage. In the industrial context, corroded machineries could lead to accidents, life hazards, food and water contamination, higher energy consumption, value erosion of expensive materials et al. Due to the limited awareness about corrosion, very little preventive measurements were made in the past by the industries. In such a scenario, AVANTHA has initiated a service on Corrosion Management and formed a Committee on Corrosion Management (CMC) under the chairmanship of Dr Baldev Raj, Former Director, Indira Gandhi Centre for Atomic Research (IGCAR) & President Research, PSG Institutions. CII - CMC is a network of internationally renowned experts on corrosion, who work committed to minimise corrosion related losses in India. The members list of CMC includes experts from various Indian research institutions like IGCAR, Bhabha Atomic Research Centre (BARC), National Metallurgical Laboratory (NML), Central Electro Chemical Research Institute (CECRI) and industries such as Hindustan Petroleum Corporation Limited (HPCL), Oil & Natural Gas Corporation Ltd (ONGC), National Thermal Power Corporation Ltd (NTPC) & Engineers India Limited (EIL) etc. CII - CMC services includes Detailed Corrosion Audits, Corrosion Awareness Program in the form of regular Seminars/Training Programs, In-house Training Programs for the industry, and Awareness drives through Posters & Publications. CII - CMC aims at better corrosion management which can be achieved using preventive strategies. These preventive strategies include increasing awareness of significant corrosion costs and potential cost-savings, changing the misconception that nothing can be done about corrosion, changing policies, regulations, standards, and management practices to increase corrosion cost-savings through sound corrosion management, and by developing advanced life prediction of machinery and performance assessment. CII - CMC corrosion audit approach advocates the need for the company to build up competencies as we progress. Corrosion audit would happen through a combination of inputs: Formal class-room training Consulting (assisting in finding the exact solutions and hands holding during implementation). Counseling (helping management make wise choices in deciding the development of a road-map and its implementation) Off-line support during the project for many things that may be done not necessarily in the factory premises. 6

7 Spectrum These are implemented in the plant, so that there is a sustainable change in the maintenance cost. The benefits that industries are getting through corrosion audit includes 30-40% reduction of the corrosion related issues at each and every area, less down time of the equipment due to corrosion, minimization of quality threat to the finished products by corrosion, controlled life cycle cost of painting program and maintenance. CII - CMC is also creating awareness through publishing booklets on corrosion on various topics like corrosion of materials such as Carbon steels, Stainless steels, Aluminum alloys, Copper & Zinc alloys, and Titanium & Zirconium alloys. Also booklets on forms of corrosion, corrosion monitoring & inspection, paints & coatings, corrosion inhibitor applications etc are also being published. With these activities of CII - CMC industries are getting a pathway to approach R & D organisations that can improve their efficiency and reduce corrosion related failures. CII - CMC is dedicated to create corrosion awareness and its related issues in Indian industry to build a safe, clean and stainless India.
