We save energy for industries, commercial establishments, and all types of bulk consumers across india.

Established as the Industrial Energy Audit Cell at IIT Madras in 2018, and later expanded nationwide as the Kotak – IIT Madras Save Energy Mission (KISEM) in 2022 with the CSR support of Kotak Mahindra Bank. The primary objective of this mission is to decarbonise the Indian manufacturing sector, with a prime focus on MSMEs, by conducting various forms of energy assessment studies and energy audits. Through these assessments, suitable energy conservation measures are identified and recommended to help industries save energy and costs while reducing emissions. The mission has completed 509 detailed energy audits, including 407 CSR-funded audits and 102 fee-based audits. Seven existing KISEM centres are empanelled under the Bureau of Energy Efficiency's (BEE) ADEETIE scheme. It has so far realised more than ₹96 Cr in annual energy cost savings and avoided more than 1,23,594 tCO₂e of emissions annually. Full implementation of the identified measures could unlock a further ₹404 Cr in annual savings potential and avoid up to 4,57,757 tCO₂e annually.
