Addressing the joint ministerial plenary of clean energy ministerial (CEM13) and mission innovation (MI-7) in Pennsylvania (US), Jitendra Singh said that under Prime Minister Narendra Modi, India is seeking to meet the country's massive energy demand with innovative clean energy innovations and programs.
He said India is committed to achieving 500 GW of installed electricity capacity from non-fossil fuel sources by the year 2030 and reducing the projected emissions by one billion tonnes from now to 2030.
Singh, who is leading a high-level joint Indian ministerial delegation added that India’s energy-mix strategies include a larger shift toward clean energy alternatives, increased manufacturing capacities, energy use efficiency, and a policy push for hydrogen including production-linked incentives.
In addition, the emerging technologies like 2G Ethanol Pilot, Comfort climate box for tropical regions, Hydrogen Valleys, and Heating and cooling virtual repository, are all on the table, the Minister emphasised.
