TATA Projects Limited , one of India's fastest growing and most admired infrastructure companies yesterday inked a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) with the Council of Scientific and Industrial Research - Indian Institute of Petroleum (CSIR - IIP) to collaborate and work together towards ensuring clean energy solutions.As part of this endeavor, clean energy solutions such as room temperature bio-diesel produced from CSIR-IIP shall be used across some of Tata Projects' ongoing sites. Further, the partnership will also actively explore utilization of by-product Green Diesel from the existing DILSAAF™ (Drop-In Liquid Sustainable Aviation Fuel and Automotive Fuel) Pilot Plant at CSIR-IIP's campus in Dehradun and proposed commercial scale demonstration unit in Tata Projects' fleet.Construction and infrastructure remains one of the largest industry sectors in India. Thousands of light and heavy vehicles, including various types of construction equipment - both small and large - are utilized during project execution.

The MoU aligns well with our mandate to reduce India's energy imports and enhance national self-reliance by repurposing waste and under-utilized local renewable carbon resources."CSIR - Indian Institute of Petroleum is located at Dehradun and dedicated to R&D in the hydrocarbon sector. Its charter is to provide competitive and sustainable technologies and products to meet the requirements of the ever-growing energy sector and develop capacity and capability in new energy areas such as bio-hydrogen and solar energy and their innovative combinations.The Tata Sustainability Group ("TSG") serves as a Centre of Excellence and nodal resource on sustainability for Tata group companies.
