India will not rush to ease its dependence on coal
Significance India exceeded the combined coal consumption of Europe and North America in 2023, when coal accounted for around 75% of its electricity generation. Delhi projects that figure to fall to 55% by 2030. Impacts Government officials will continue to reject external criticism of India’s coal embrace. Delhi will step up cooperation over clean energy with key partners, including through initiatives such as the Global Biofuels Alliance. India will keep encouraging increased climate finance for developing countries.
