“…In addition, other countries such as China, the United States, Japan, Russia, and Pakistan are mentioned frequently in this theme. Illustratively, Grover [90] reviews the policy initiatives of the Government of India on nuclear energy to develop a likely scenario for electricity generation capacity while Roy [91] calls for closer cooperation between India and Central Asia, especially Turkmenistan, to secure natural gas supply. In a study at the interface of energy and foreign policy, Jörgensen and Wagner [92] identify opportunities for strengthening the bilateral relationship between the European Union and India on climate change and energy.…”

Although India has made significant progress towards the sustainable development goal on energy (SDG 7), further policy innovations are essential for closing the gap, addressing geographic disparities, and harnessing energy for transformative change. Research can support this process by creating policy-relevant knowledge regarding the energy transition, but there is no systematic account of the literature pertaining to energy policy in India to map the research area and suggest key avenues for future research. In this study, I conduct a bibliometric review and computational text analysis of over 2700 publications to identify the key themes, geographies, and public policy concepts (not) examined in the research on energy policy in India. I find that: (i) the literature is dominated by topics in energy supply and less attention is paid to demand-side management, energy efficiency, and electricity distribution; (ii) existing studies have hardly examined subnational policy (-making), especially in the case of eastern and north-eastern India; and (iii) research on both analysis for policy and analysis of policy is limited. I conclude that the current foci lack the breadth and depth necessary for supporting the Indian energy transition and urge scholars to diversify the thematic, geographic, and conceptual engagement in future research.

“…However, because of policy initiatives from India, NSG guidelines were relaxed in 2008 [33]. As a result, India has imported uranium and used it to fuel their nuclear power plants and this in turn improved the capacity factors of the power plants [34,35]. Despite the difficulties with low quality local supplies, India is promoting the use of nuclear energy for energy security as well as environmental benefits [36].…”

India is one of the fastest developing countries in the world. To sustain this growth, energy and electricity demands will increase. In 2015, of the 1337 TWh produced, 916 TWh were from fossil fuels. We prepared several models of electricity demand from 2015 to 2030, based on publicly available datasets and trends. Models were tested on data from previous years and adjusted accordingly. From several scenarios, we decided to introduce two possibilities, i.e., a scenario using high energy savings in all sectors, and a scenario counting on a high industrial growth not supported by an equal increase of electricity savings. For both cases we prepared models for extreme situations: (1) where coal- and lignite-based power plants are preferred after slow-down of a renewable energy boom, and (2) with high utilization of renewable energy supported by natural gas and nuclear energy. With GDP and population increasing at the same rate as in previous years, the unambiguous result in all scenarios is a 2 to 3-fold increase of the electricity demand by 2030. On the electricity production side, all scenarios stress the role of coal, renewables and nuclear sources. Both energy and climate policies should be prepared for such a development in advance.

“…Nestle studied the effect of nuclear policy and the share of nuclear power was discussed and analyzed [19]. Grover showed the studies done by the Department of Atomic Energy indicated that even after exploiting full potential of every available source of energy including nuclear energy, India needed to continue to import energy resources [20]. Shropshire studied the future plans for energy production in the European Union as well as other locations called for a high penetration of renewable technologies (20% by 2020, and higher after 2020) [21].…”
