What is C3?

C3 stands for Chennai Climate Consortium, a multi stakeholder collaboration platform to accelerate climate action in and around Chennai. The platform was launched by a group of Chennai-based climate tech professionals and is co-ordinated by EAI (Energy Alternatives India), a climate tech management consulting firm.

What is the aim of C3 Connect?

Climate action and decarbonization are complex domains with significant uncertainties in both the optimal approaches to be undertaken and also the availability of solutions.

While there are some ready made solutions available (think solar power plants), many other solutions are just emerging.

All the above make it quite difficult for the industrial and commercial sectors in Chennai to take informed decisions on their decarbonization efforts.

In parallel, many high quality solution providers find it difficult to access the right industrial end user owing to the lack of awareness of their solutions among many industrial and commercial stakeholders.

C3 Connect bridges these gaps by identifying and curating effective decarbonization solutions and solution providers, and connecting these with industry stakeholders

How does C3 work?

C3 uses the domain expertise of EAI (Energy Alternatives India) team who have been assisting Indian industrial decarbonization efforts for over a decade.

The C3 research team within EAI will evaluate potential vendors and their solutions on the one side, and understand the decarbonization needs of Chennai-based industries and commercial sectors on the other. Using these, the team will provide curated, effective engagements between the solution providers and industrial users.
