Experts at the Mosambi Climate Conference highlight how integrating digital architecture into the energy ecosystem is essential for driving climate transformation and achieving energy efficiency across the Global South.
Key Points
- Digital architecture is crucial for transforming the energy ecosystem and enhancing carbon and energy efficiency.
- The Mosambi Climate Conference (MC2) serves as a key platform for accelerating climate technology deployment in the Global South.
- Collaboration between policymakers, innovators, and investors is essential for translating climate research into practical implementation.
- Climate Weeks and platforms like MC2 are vital for sharing success stories and addressing challenges in climate action.
- India is emerging as a lead player in driving climate action in Asia.
Incorporating digital architecture in the energy ecosystem is essential for transformation in the climate sector, according to experts at the Mosambi Climate Conference (MC2) held as part of the ongoing Delhi Climate Innovation Week.
The second edition of the conference positioned itself as a curated, action-oriented platform accelerating climate technology deployment across the Global South.
"The moment you incorporate digital architecture into the energy ecosystem, you will see a transformation. Carbon efficiency, energy efficiency, and now energy intelligence -- this is the next frontier to optimise demand side energy, leading to greater resilience and competitiveness," said Venkat Garimella, Vice President, Sustainability, Schneider Electric India, highlighting digitalisation as the next leap.
Organised by the Climate Collective Foundation (CCF), MC2, in partnership with Schneider Electric, brought together policymakers, corporates, utilities, multilateral institutions, investors and climate-focused startups working across energy, mobility, circularity, AI and adaptation.
"Platforms like this are essential in bringing together policymakers, change agents, innovators, entrepreneurs, financiers and civil society to move from ideas to implementation," said Amitabh Kant, the former NITI Aayog CEO.
Key Discussions and Startup Engagement
Parallel sessions addressed critical scale bottlenecks -- translating deep climate research into commercial deployment; strengthening subnational startup ecosystems; and leveraging AI to transform grid management and energy efficiency.
A curated Startup Experience Zone enabled direct engagement between founders, investors and decision-makers.
Importance of Climate Weeks
Divya Sharma, Executive Director at Climate Group, said, "Climate Weeks are important because they bring us together. We need to meet face-to-face."
"We need to share stories of success. And we also need to create the space for people to discuss the challenges and the barriers. Asia now offers climate action, and India has emerged as its lead player," she said.
