PGWPM (Energy)
The Energy sector in India is undergooing unprecedented investment and growth.
The private sector has become an integral part of this hitherto public sector dominated industry. The Power sector has become one of the preferred destinations for investors, with several multi-billion dollar IPOs in recent years. Dozens of companies have announced projects worth billions of dollars. Along with the large investments in conventional energy sources, emerging areas like alternative energy, energy efficiency, environmental management and smart technologies needed for sustainable development have become key considerations for corporate management and policy makers. To tackle these challenges and realize the growth promised by these investments, there is need for tens of thousands of highly competent managers. However, there has not been a commensurate investment in developing human resources and management talent to deliver on these growth plans. Further, there is an urgent need to engage even the existing managers from the sector with the different facets of sustainable development.
