Decarbonize, digitise and decantrise is the new mantra for India’s energy transition roadmap. PM Modi’s Paris pledge has given a shot in the arm for the country’s transition plan towards clean energy and to achieve the goal of greening the economy. It provides certainty and visibility to a clean and low carbon economy.
The Paris panchamrit commitment is – 500 GW of non-fossil electricity capacity (upped from the earlier commitment of 450 GW), to generate upto half of the country’s energy requirements from RE sources; reduce emissions by 1 billion tons from now to 2030, and lastly, to reduce emissions intensity of GDP by 45% by 2070.
