W orld Energy Council India and its member organizations have brought out this publication containing

valuable insights into the Indian energy sector.
The energy sector in India and globally as well is going through an unprecedented transition. Increasing
economic development coupled with realities of climate change has inspired us to restructure our approach to how en-
ergy is generated, consumed, stored and distributed. India is committed to energy sustainability and is spearheading a
greener future with large scale renewable expansion programmes.
The need for optimum utilization of the country’s abundant energy resources both conventional and renewable pres-
ent ample scope for innovations in combining technologies and new business models.
As the sector boundaries get blurred, there are several areas of synergies and avenues for collaboration to be explored
th
within the country and outside. It is opportune time at the 24 World Energy Congress, for the global energy fraternity to
discover opportunities in the Indian energy sector. I believe that this publication would be of great value in this context.
As India continues its energy transition, we invite the global community to be part of this exciting journey. I believe
that our endeavours will lead to value co-creation and enduring relationships.
As stakeholders of the global energy sector, let us work with renewed commitment to realize our shared vision of a
sustainable energy future.
