MAKING OF A BIG ENERGY LEAGUE
India is committed to reducing its carbon emission by 45 per cent by 2030 while underlining clean energy partnerships with Japan
ENERGY VISION PARTNERING FOR A NEW WORLD
R.K. Singh Union Minister of Power, and New and Renewable Energy
India has to fulfil its commitments to cut emission intensity by 45 per cent by 2030, eventually paving the way for achieving the long-term goal of reaching net zero by 2070. And to strengthen the foundation, Union minister for power, and new and Renewable Energy R.K. Singh said the country is expanding its footprint of energy generation via using solar and wind energies and building capacities and ecosystems for green hydrogen. Conventionally, Japan has remained interested in India’s push for renewables and has been investing in equities and sharing big-ticket technologies. Here, the minister throws light on India’s clean energy partnership with Japan, its commitment to cutting carbon emissions and expectations from the developed world.
COMMON STRATEGIC INTEREST
Japan is a close and valued partner. Our strategic interests coincide and we have the same worldview... I’m quite sure that Japanese investments in the energy sector will increase.
INDIA’S COMMITMENT
We had committed that we would cut our emissions by 33 per cent even though our emissions are one of the lowest. And we achieved that in 2019. We have already raised our ambition. We further want to cut emissions intensity by 45 per cent by 2030. We shall achieve that. We have programmes for that.
