Dependence on crude oil imports, high correlation with economic growth, and contribution to air pollution cause the transformations in transport sector in India to have significant ramifications. Moreover, these transitions ...
Impacts of changes in commercial non-coking coal grading system and other coal policies towards estimation of CO2 emission in Indian power sector
(Taylor & Francis, 2021-02-02)
In India, coal-based electricity is a leading cause for greenhouse gas emissions. However, many uncertainties prevail in the emissions estimation from coal-fired plants due to the dynamics of varying net calorific values ...
A climate club to decarbonize the global steel industry
(Springer, 2022-05-23)
Decarbonizing global steel production requires a fundamental transformation. A sectoral climate club, which goes beyond tariffs and involves deep transnational cooperation, can facilitate this transformation by addressing ...
Evaluation of Classification Techniques for Land Use Change Mapping of Indian Cities
(Springer Nature, 2020-06-20)
This study looks into the development of multi-level classification approach for land use change mapping in Indian cities using Landsat imageries. In this study, we mapped 47 Indian cities at different time frames 1990, ...
