Carefully designed energy support measures—subsidies, public utilities’ investments, and public finance institutions’ lending—and government’s energy revenues play a key role in a country’s transition to clean energy. In India, over USD 77 billion of support was provided to the energy sector. This session provides a framework for tracking a country’s progress towards its Net Zero targets and provides a detailed assessment of how aligned is India’s government support in reaching its Net Zero targets.
