Decarbonising India: Energy and Hard-to-Abate Sectors. An Anthology and Summary of Research and Findings
March 21, 2025
India aims to achieve 500GW of renewable energy and a 45 per cent reduction in GHG emissions per unit of GDP by 2030. This report examines the challenges and pathways for decarbonising India’s energy and industrial sectors, focusing on scalable and affordable solutions. This research anthology puts together perspectives on emissions trajectories, renewable energy integration, and low-carbon strategies for energy and hard-to-abate industries like steel, cement, aluminum, and fertiliser by compiling key studies and findings from civil society, research institutes, and grassroots organizations—to map existing knowledge and identify research gaps.
The findings build on Climate Week discussions, where sector experts, policymakers, and industry leaders assessed India’s progress and outlined strategies for a low-carbon future.
