Introduction
The industrial sector consumes almost about one third of the energy that is used
worldwide and this data is from the year 2007. It is important to mention that about 25 percent of
the world carbo dioxide emission is a result of the energy used in the industrial process. A typical
semiconductor facility utilizes almost about 15 to 35 megawatts of power and the power is
required to keep all the sections and processes performing. Thus it can be said that majority of
the carbon emitted per year is 100 to 250 thousand tonnes and the reason is that majority of the
electricity is generated by burning fossil fuel. Just to highlight around 704 kg of carbon dioxide
is produced during the generation of 1 MWh of electricity. The large amount of pollution is due
to the release to the air by burning oil, gas and burning coal (Jin, Jimenez and Tian 2013).
Therefore, there comes a need of how to integrate the renewable energy resources with the
industrial process so that the energy consumption from the normal grid can be minimized. This
study will be based on the question "Can high efficiency, low-cost industrial operations be
managed by using Renewable energy resources".
Research question
Can high efficiency, low-cost industrial operations be managed by using Renewable
energy resources?
Literature Review
To cope with the climate change, several industrial consumers are viewing the renewable
energy as a better solution for attaining the business sustainability as well as reducing the impact
on the environment. The two green technologies that are being taken up by the industries with
the emotive of reducing the low carbon operation are the onsite renewable energy generation and
