Indian methane and nitrous oxide emissions and mitigation flexibility
(2004-10-22)
Methane (CH4) and nitrous oxide (N2O) contributed 27% and 7%, respectively, to India's CO2 equivalent greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions in 2000, the remaining being the carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions. Presently, agriculture ...
Large Point Source (LPS) emissions from India: regional and sectoral analysis, atmospheric environment
(2001-10-18)
Indian large point sources (LPS) contribute to CO2 andSO2 emissions to a large extent (above 65%) andto CH4,
N2O andNOX emissions to some extent (around10%). The former emissions are primarily from fossil fuel combustion
while ...
The Clean Development Mechanism (CDM) and India: firm responses, baselines, and development dynamics
(2004-10-26)
This paper provides an assessment of the Clean Development Mechanism (CDM) from a developing
country’s perspective with specific reference to activities in India. The CDM has elicited considerable
interest from various ...
Integrated modelling system for energy and environment policies
(2001-10-15)
Integrated modeling system offers advantages over a huge monolith model in addressing
diverse issues in energy and environment modeling for a vast country like India. It utilizes
the inherent strengths of strong individual ...
Multigas emissions inventory of India: sectoral and regional trends
(2006-10-29)
This paper provides the trends of greenhouse gas (GHG) and local air pollutant emissions of India for 1985–2005. The
GHGs covered are six Kyoto gases, namely carbon dioxide (CO2), methane (CH4), nitrous oxide (N2O), ...
India's GHG emission scenarios: aligning development and stabilization paths
(2006-10-28)
This paper presents emission scenarios for India, constructed
following the IPCC SRES framework. Analysis
spans 21st century and is centered on energy sector
CO2 emission. Scenario stories presume no explicit
climate ...
From climate change impacts to adaptation: A development perspective for India
(2007-11-02)
India has good reasons to be concerned about climate change as it could adversely affect the achievement of vital national
development goals related to socio-economic development, human welfare, health, energy availability ...
India's non-CO2 GHG emissions: development pathways and mitigation flexibility
(2006-11-01)
This paper analyses the future trends (2000-2030) in Methane and
Nitrous Oxide emissions across four scenarios that have been developed for
India. The future state of Indian economy in the next 30-years has been broadly
...
Sustainable development as a framework for developing country participation in international climate change policies
(2007-11-02)
The paper presents a number of ideas on how climate change policy
implementation in developing countries can be supported by alternative international
cooperation mechanisms that are based on stakeholder interests and ...
Analysis of long-term energy and carbon emission scenarios for India
(2003-10-19)
In the coming years India faces great challenges in energy and environment. The path of
development chosen by India, upon which lies the future growth of energy and emission trajectories,
would be greatly influenced by ...
