Areas of Existence
Solar Energy Data:
As Solar Energy (i.e. Sunlight) is
Distributed equally in all areas,
so there is no specific area
defined.

12. Conclusion
• India’s Energy uses and emissions are low compared to industrialized
countries…. BUT
• We need to search for Sustainable development options for India, quickly
due to factors like
Constraints on energy use, arising from
• (a) limited domestic energy resources,
• (b) climate constraints, and
• (c) land, water and social issues related to energy projects
Development,
Energy and
Climate

13. Reduce Energy Requirement.
Indian economic growth, well-being of people is constrained by
energy.
Large potential of Energy Efficiency needs to be actualized
 Link energy tariff to energy consumption norm for Commercial buildings
 Industry: discourage inefficient plants from setting up
 Appliances: Assist manufacturers to introduce Super Efficient Appliances
(as poor Indian consumers are very cost sensitive)
Save
