Energy storage will play an important role in the Government of India’s efforts to meet the ambitious targets with regards to electric mobility and renewable energy.
In February 2015, the Government of India announced the ambitious target of installing 175 GW of renewable energy (RE) by 2021-22.
The push for clean energy transition as an effective climate action strategy is intensifying.
Uttar Pradesh, the fourth largest state in terms of land area, is the most populated state in India, accounting for over 16% of the country’s total population.
India’s nationally determined contribution (NDC) target has been updated to achieve 50% cumulative electric power installed capacity from non-fossil fuel sources by 2030.
Energy access is a well-proven determinant in several development and transformative sectors, such as education, primary health, gender empowerment, and quality of life.
CSTEP developed a roadmap to achieve India’s NDC target of reducing its emissions intensity by 33%-35% of 2005 levels, while meeting our developmental goals.
In light of India's Nationally Determined Contributions (NDCs) commitments, we conducted an analysis to understand the contribution of energy efficiency to India's climate targets.
India ranks ninth overall on Ernst and Young LLP's most recent renewables attractiveness Index.
According to Niti Aayog, the demand for energy in India is set to grow from the current level of 5,311 TWh to 18,635 TWh by 2047, an increment of 3.
The Government of India plans to integrate 175 GW of variable renewables into the grid by 2022.
Thanks to favourable government policies and the reducing costs of technology, renewable energy is getting cheaper around the world.
The Southern Region (SR) leads renewable energy (RE) deployment in India, having an installed capacity of about 43 GW as of December 2020.
Renewable energy is increasingly becoming cheaper than that derived from thermal power plants.
According to Union Ministry of Statistics and Programme Implementation, India produced 15,311 petajoules of energy in 2020 of which 81% was derived from fossil fuels such as coal, oil, and natural gas.
