This research investigates how Industry 4.0 technologies might be utilised to increase sustainability results in ASEAN and India. Secondary data from public sources is used to investigate the relationship between Industry 4.0 preparedness and sustainability enhancements, specifically in relation to the reduction of carbon emissions and use of renewable energy. The ANOVA test findings are significant at a p = 0.03 due to the substantial influence of Industry 4.0 technology on sustainability. The correlation between sustainability results and Industry 4.0 readiness (r = 0.80) suggested that digital transformation is important to achieving environmental targets. The report also dives into how certain technologies-such as IoT and AI-assist industry and supply chains in shrinking their carbon footprint. Despite this, we don't know much about the long-term effects Industry 4.0 will have on the environment, particularly in developing nations. Future research should focus on these gaps to fill them up and investigate how digital technologies can be integrated into renewable energy plans for optimising sustainability results.

Objectives

To investigate the relationship of sustainability results in ASEAN nations and India to Industry 4.0 preparedness.

To fine the effect of such IoT and AI technologies of Industry 4.0 on the fall of carbon emissions?

To evaluate how government regulations facilitate the deployment of Industry 4.0 and green technology.

To analyse how to close research gaps on the long-term environmental consequences of Industry 4.0
