Abstract

Artificial intelligence (AI) is heralded as a game changer in accelerating the deployment of green technologies towards global sustainability. India is one of the world’s largest economies that is also battling environmental issues, making innovation in AI a possible saviour in optimising energy usage, managing waste effectively, increasing the efficiency of renewable energy systems, and advancing more sustainable agricultural practices. This paper provides an overview of how AI is helping India become more green-friendly through different applications such as renewable energy, waste management, and precision agriculture. As a design speculation, up-to-date statistics and case studies have been used to show how AI technologies have improved operational efficiency while decreasing costs and environmental impacts. The results demonstrate that AI has raised the production of solar energy by 28%, improved waste separation efficiency by up to 60%, and reduced water consumption for agriculture by up to 40%. While the benefits are clear there are some barriers to AI deployment such as high set-up costs, data privacy issues, and low awareness. The review concludes with lessons learnt and the opportunities for AI-driven green technologies in India, noting that progress requires strategic partnerships, enabling policies and adequate investment infrastructure and human resources to meet sustainable development goals.
