Purdue University has entered a major five-year strategic partnership with Rittal and Eplan, sister companies known globally for industrial and electrical engineering solutions and automation technologies. The collaboration, centered at the Purdue Polytechnic Institute and formalized at the Rockwell Automation Fair in Chicago, will bring Purdue into the Rittal + Eplan Partner Network as a research partner focused on advancing smart manufacturing education and preparing students for the next industrial revolution. As part of the initiative, Purdue will establish two dedicated facilities, the Eplan Electrical Engineering Technology Projects Lab and the Rittal Automation Systems Lab. These labs will allow students…
India’s wind sector is quietly entering a new phase, one that is less about headline capacity numbers and more about grid relevance, industrial depth and long-term strategic value. Mr. Aditya Pyasi, CEO of the Indian Wind Turbine Manufacturers Association (IWTMA) views this transition as a clear departure from the way wind power has historically been positioned in India’s energy landscape. After several years of moderate capacity additions, he believes the industry has turned a corner. Annual installations are accelerating again, supported by a far more structured and predictable renewable tendering roadmap. From today’s installed base of around 55 GW, Mr.…
Shares of Clean Max Enviro Energy Solutions Ltd made a subdued debut on the stock exchanges, listing below their issue price amid mixed investor sentiment in the broader market. The renewable energy company, which operates in the commercial and industrial clean energy segment, had recently concluded its initial public offering. While the IPO saw participation from institutional and retail investors, the stock opened at a discount compared to its issue price on listing day. Market analysts attributed the weak debut to prevailing market volatility and cautious investor outlook rather than company-specific fundamentals. Broader equity trends, sector rotation, and short-term profit…
At MWC Barcelona, Rohde & Schwarz and Qualcomm Technologies showcased a live demonstration at the Rohde & Schwarz booth (5A80), combining a mid-band channel around 2.5 GHz (FR1) with an upper mid-band channel near 7 GHz (FR3). The setup employs 4×4 MIMO on both bands along with higher-order modulation, enabling end-to-end validation of device performance across the aggregated spectrum. Central to the test configuration is the CMX500 one-box signaling tester from Rohde & Schwarz, enhanced with the new RFU18 board, which extends coverage up to 18 GHz. The RFU18 is a modular hardware upgrade for the CMX500 platform, providing a straightforward and cost-effective…

When energy systems change, economic power changes with them. Green Mentor’s Founder Mr. Sachin Sengar believes that the shift is already underway. He argues that sustainability today is less about optics and more about survival. As regulatory pressures tighten and capital increasingly favours climate-ready businesses, he believes companies that treat sustainability as a growth lever and not as a reporting exercise will define the next phase of competitive advantage. For Mr. Sengar, one of the biggest misconceptions in corporate India is the belief that sustainability is a “department.” It is neither a CSR activity, nor an annual report, and is…
