Hi,

Hope you are well !

India is emerging as one of the world's rapidly growing major economies. With an increasing demand for energy, primarily driven by the industrial & housing sector.

It now is tasked with supplying energy for the growing economy; while ensuring it aligns with its ambitious climate-target of net-zero emissions by 2070. 

To do this successfully, 

(i) India will have to gradually reduce the reliance on fossil-based energy sources. At the time of writing this, 56.8% of India's installed energy capacity relies on fossil fuels such as coal, lignite, gas, and diesel.

(ii) India will have to explore and implement viable financial models to support the deployment of clean energy (non-fossil) infrastructure in India. Adequate funding mechanisms (both domestic and international) will have to be established to ensure capital flow and investments.

The news developments from the last two weeks, curated here, will give you a sneak peak into this effort (in India and around the world). Happy Exploring.

Regards, 

Harish,
