Landscaping Renewable Energy in Changing Dynamics of World Energy: India’s Response

Energy security and climate change are prime concerns worldwide. Every nation has its own Nationally Determined Commitment, and it aspires to achieve net zero in a specific time frame. India too targets to achieve Net Zero by 2070. The large-scale exploitation of renewable energy can help to achieve Net Zero. The share of renewable energy in the total primary energy is expected to be more than 35 per cent by 2035. It has also been pledged that 40 per cent of the country’s electricity would be generated from non-fossil fuels, such as wind and solar. In response to the changing world energy dynamics, India has started positioning itself and accordingly implemented various policies and strategies.
