increase substantially the share of renewable energy in the global energy mix

7.3 By 2030,

double the global rate of improvement in energy efficiency1

The Energy-Environment Ecosystem
  • Energy sector in India contributes to 67 per cent of the total greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions2
  • Coal accounts for around 75% of India’s total power generation3
  • India’s coal-based thermal power sector is responsible for one-third of India’s GHG emissions, and around 50 percent of India’s fuel-related CO2 emissions4
