In the present study, various biomass gasification power-generation models from across the country are evaluated for their techno-economic viability for promotion and scaling up in other states.
This report provides an energy outlook for the region up to the year 2035 to help identify policy, social, infrastructure, and technology issues that must be addressed to meet future energy needs of ADB members in Asia and the Pacific.
This report provides recommendations on the renewable energy policy framework for Bihar and was submitted to the Minister of Energy, Government of Bihar. Bihar does not have enough fossil fuel resources to generate electricity for its future needs. The centralised model of energy has also failed to deliver.
Power generation from renewable sources is on the rise in India, with the share of renewable energy in the country’s total energy mix rising from 7.8% in FY08 to 12.3% in FY13.
The traditional energy system is the main contributor to greenhouse gases (GHGs) emissions and, therefore, to climate change whereas renewable energy (RE) emits no or help to reduce the GHGs emission.
India's significant economic growth over the last decade has led to an inexorable rise in energy demand. Currently, India faces a challenging energy shortage. To grow at 9 per cent over the next 20 years, it is estimated that its energy capacity must increase by approximately 5.8 per cent per year.

This study commissioned by the Ministry of New and Renewable Energy on the environmental and socio-economic impacts of Renewable Energy (RE) projects in India, particularly from solar and on shore wind farms concludes that existing legal framework or the governance structure to mitigate or manage the environmental and social impacts is sufficient.
The main objective of the scheme is to promote the widespread construction of energy efficient solar/ green buildings in the country through a combination of financial and promotional incentives, and other support measures so as to save a substantial amount of electricity and other fossil fuels apart from having peak load shavings in cities and
