Energy Security Scenarios for India Under Diversified Demand and Supply

Abstract

India is one of the fastest growing economies of the world. The most important factor which affects the economic growth is energy security. In this paper, it has been tried to analyze different energy security scenarios of India up to year 2047 under various demand and supply conditions. The paper is designed to compare the framework and projections of energy consumption and supply of various sectors till the year 2047. A tool, IESS 2047, developed by NITI Aayog, Government of India has been used for the analysis purpose in this paper. It is observed that there will be a huge coal dependence for India if heroic efforts are not employed for the energy security. A significant difference in the energy supply sectors has been observed while following the different pathways.
