Produktbeschreibung
Addressing the challenges of a climate-constrained world will be an immense task for a country like India with a growing economy, a large population and the obligation to bring hundreds of millions of people out of poverty. Current projections show that India, after China, will experience the greatest increase in energy and greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions globally and must take critical steps today, at this important juncture in its development, to avoid lock-in to an obsolete high emissions trajectory. A critical part of the solution will lie in promoting renewable energy technologies as a way to address concerns about energy security, economic growth in the face of rising energy prices, competitiveness, health costs, and environmental degradation. Building on India's tremendous drive over the past few years, the seven trends outlined in this book reveal the most exciting developments to come and suggest that with continued momentum renewable energy can be and should be one of India's most essential sustaining and sustainable solutions.
