Climate change mitigation policy paradigms: national objectives and alignments
(Springer-Verlag, 2014)
The aim of this paper is to assess how policy goals in relation to the promotion of green growth, energy security, pollution control and greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions reductions have been aligned in policies that have ...
Cost-effective architecture of carbon capture and storage (CCS) grid in India
(Elsevier pvt ltd., 2017-11)
Various modeling studies analyzing global 2 °C climate stabilization scenarios have projected penetration of CO2
capture and storage (CCS) technologies in India alongside a sizable penetration of renewable energy ...
The1.5°C target and coal sector transition: at the limits of societal feasibility
(Taylor and Francis, 2018)
National and global mitigation scenarios consistent with 1.5°C require an early phaseout
of coal in major coal-dependent countries, compared to standard technical and
economic lifetimes. This appears particularly apparent ...
Relevance of clean coal technology for India’s energy security: a policy perspective
(Institute of Physics Publishing, 2017)
Climate change mitigation regimes are expected to impose constraints on the future use of fossil fuels in order to reduce greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions. In 2015, 41% of total final energy consumption and 64% of ...
India in 2°C and well below 2°C worlds: Opportunities and challenges
(Taylor and Francis, 2018)
India’s contributions to meeting global mean temperature increases of 2 C or well below 2 C would require transformational changes in its energy systems. A bottom-up model analyzes alternate futures (reference, intended ...
Energy balance of Indian villages: A case study of seven villages
(Sage Journals, 2018)
This paper estimates the rural energy balance of 7 Indian villages of different agro-climate zones. This was done through primary survey of households in each village covering energy consumption, production, export, import ...
Implications of land use transitions and climate change on local flooding in urban areas: an assessment of 42 Indian cities
(Land Use Policy, 2020-03-20)
Urban development induced land transitions affect urban hydrology, resulting in increased flooding risks. Climate change-related precipitation changes are an added complexity to the flood risks of cities. This study examines ...
Sustainable development and carbon neutrality: integrated assessment of transport transitions in India
(Transportation Research Part D: Transport and Environment, 2020-08-29)
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 ...
