Clean energy solutions provider Gentari Sdn Bhd, a subsidiary of Petroliam Nasional Bhd (Petronas), has appointed energy industry veteran Navjit Gill as its country head for India, effective from July 10.
Gentari has identified India as one of its top markets in its renewable energy push.
“Navjit’s vast experience in the Indian energy sector makes him an invaluable addition to the Gentari India team. With India’s increasing focus on achieving net zero goals, the country presents extensive opportunities for global private players to contribute,” Gentari chief executive officer Sushil Purohit said in a statement on Monday (July 17).
“We have full confidence that Navjit will hit the ground running in developing our three core pillars: renewable energy, hydrogen and green mobility,” Purohit said.
“As country head of Gentari India, Navjit will lead the team in growing all three core pillars, fortifying its presence not only in commercial and industrial sectors by 2025 but also in utility-scale renewables, as well as collaborating to propel the company’s green hydrogen ambitions, and expanding its green mobility footprint.
“Gentari India also targets to pursue opportunities in areas where it can offer integrated clean energy solutions,” he added.
Gentari recently signed a memorandum of understanding with the Tamil Nadu state government to conduct feasibility studies on green hydrogen production. – BERNAMA
