Energy Security in India
2. Introduction
•Energy is the backbone of a developing nation like India.
•Energy security is an essential component of national security and
economic development.
•The presentation will give details about the current scenario of energy
security in India.
3. Sources of Energy in India
•Coal, petroleum, natural gas, and renewable energy sources are the primary
sources of energy in India.
•Coal accounts for 60% of India's total energy consumption.
•India is the world's third-largest consumer of oil.
4. Import Dependency
•India has an import dependency of 84% for crude oil and 25% for natural gas.
•The import cost of crude oil and gas is the major contributor to India's current
account deficit.
•The geopolitical issues and the fluctuating prices of crude oil and gas affect
India's energy security.
5. Infrastructure Constraints
•India's energy infrastructure is not well developed, and the existing
infrastructure is outdated.
•The transmission and distribution losses in India are higher compared to other
countries.
•The lack of proper infrastructure is a significant constraint in achieving energy
security.
6. Renewable Energy Potential
•India has a vast potential for renewable energy sources like solar, wind, biofuel,
and hydroelectricity.
•The government has set a target of achieving 175 GW of renewable energy
capacity by 2022.
•The development of renewable energy sources will reduce India's import
dependency and ensure energy security.
7. Policy Initiatives
•The Indian government has launched several policies and initiatives to achieve
energy security.
•The National Energy Policy, 2017, aims to achieve affordable, reliable, and
sustainable energy for all.
•The Pradhan Mantri Ujjwala Yojana provides free LPG connections to households
below the poverty line.
8. Energy Efficiency
•Energy efficiency is an essential aspect of achieving energy security.
•The Bureau of Energy Efficiency (BEE) has launched the Energy Conservation
Building Code to promote energy-efficient buildings.
•The Perform Achieve and Trade (PAT) program is an innovative scheme to improve
energy efficiency in industries.
9. Energy Diplomacy
•Energy diplomacy plays a crucial role in achieving energy security.
•India has signed various energy agreements with countries like the US, Russia,
and Saudi Arabia.
•The International Solar Alliance, launched by India, is a platform to promote
solar energy globally.
10. Challenges and Solutions
•The challenges to achieving energy security in India include import dependency,
infrastructure constraints, and high transmission and distribution losses.
•The solutions include increasing the share of renewable energy, improving energy
efficiency, and developing a robust energy infrastructure.
11. Conclusion
•Achieving energy security is crucial for India's economic development and
national security.
•The government's policies and initiatives, along with the development of
renewable energy sources, will ensure energy security for India.
