INDIA’S RENEWABLE ENERGY PUSH: A WAY TOWARDS SUSTAINABLE DEVELOPMENT Authors: Pol T
ABSTRACT
The researcher has tried to understand the challenges of non-renewable resources and with reference to that
tries to provide the solution for India’s energy need. The researcher has also highlighted the increasing
significance of renewable energy sources and several initiatives taken in that regard. Throughout this paper the
researcher has used the descriptive and analytical methodology for the study of the concern issue. The global
energy sector has seen major transition throughout the ages because of the evolution of technology. We are in
the midst of a similar major energy transition again. Fossil fuel completely ruled the energy sector in the 20th
century. However, in the present century technological development in the energy sector started responding to
pollution caused by the fossil fuel and its harmful and long-term repercussions. New technologies in electric
vehicles, evolution in photovoltaic cells, electrolysers and fuel cells provided an opportunity to transit away
from fossil fuel. The Indian energy sector too not only embraced the new technological innovation. The
Government of India has provided a desired push to the renewable energy sector in order to achieve climate
change goals which it has committed in the Paris conference. It has brought schemes to promote solar parks,
wind energy and hydrogen sector and its positive responses are already started surfacing. In the time to come,
India will emerge as a major global energy player for renewable energy manufacturing sector.
Keywords- Electric mobility, fuel cell and electrolyser technologies
