Some of the useful tidbits: - India currently plans on reaching net-zero by 2070. - This does pause any coal power plants under construction, and for now doesn't prevent planning to add new coal power plants after 2027 - Lots of increased electricity demand during the day to to hotter weather and longer summers because of climate change can be met by solar power. - India plans on adding 500 GW of clean energy by 2030, but needs to pick up the pace to meet the target (from 17 GW constructed/ year to 40 GW constructed/year ). - Instead of 8GW of new Coal capacity, India would be building out battery storage instead. I do wonder how needs will go down, if India's population starts dropping earlier than expected. India's population is expected to start dropping by 2050.
