Overview
Net zero is no doubt the hottest topic on earth. India’s zero emission target by 2070 is seen to be bold, ambitious and challenging.
The country’s five-point strategy for a greener tomorrow includes a commitment to:
- Take its non-fossil energy capacity to 500 gigawatts by 2030
- Meet 50 percent of its energy requirement from renewable energy by 2030
- Bring its economy’s carbon intensity down to 45 percent by 2030
- Reduce 1 billion tonne of carbon emissions from the total projected emissions by 2030>
ABOUT THE EVENT
The transportation sector in India is a key contributor to the rising pollution and emission levels in the country. Typically,explosive motorisation in urban India and the sprawling nature of ever-growing metro cities is seen as one of the primary roadblocks.
As per the International Energy Agency (IEA), about 20 percent of the CO2 emissions from road transport comes from passenger cars and an equivalent from two- and three-wheelers. A little over 10 percent of emissions is from buses. And the rest — nearly half of CO2 emissions from the road transport sector — is attributed to the freight segment. IEA’s Indian Energy Outlook 2021 ranks India as the world’s third-largest energy consuming country. The report states that energy use has doubled since 2000, with 80 percent of demand still being met by coal, oil and solid biomass. The FE ‘Alternative’ Route- Fueling Ideas is a unique platform for policy makers/ bureaucrats as well as industry leaders to discuss on how we can transform an adversity into an opportunity and if the current trends are any indication, thus alternative fuel is emerging as a key trend to watch out for across the mobility sector.
