In a recent and insightful conversation with the Sustainability Karma Podcast on All India Radio, Blueleaf Energy’s Investment Director & Country Head for India, Pratyush Thakur, shared his perspective on what truly drives sustainable energy development. The discussion went beyond typical metrics and megawatts to focus on the necessity of integrated responsibility and long-term stakeholder impact.

Titled: “ESG and Green Impact Reporting Are Not Peripheral, But Rather Central to Our Business,” the episode highlights how environmental, social, and governance (ESG) factors have moved from a peripheral concern to the core of business and financing strategy within the renewable energy sector.

Pratyush opens up about several key factors shaping the industry’s net-zero journey in India and globally, including:

• Why sustainability at Blueleaf Energy is defined by a carbon-free way of doing business, not just the output of clean energy.
• How ESG compliance and green taxonomy now sit at the heart of major financing and investment decisions.
• The essential truth regarding critical mineral dependence and the growing urgency for diversification within the renewable energy supply chain.

This conversation serves as a crucial reality check on the progress of the clean energy transition and offers deep reflection on what it means to build a truly responsible energy ecosystem.
