- - - - 75% of India's energy is still powered by fossil fuels
        Power sector is responsible for half of India's CO2 emissions.
        Demand for electricity has grown exponentially.
        Wind solar and hydro electric power makes up for 70% of the increase in electricity demand.
        
        Problems with fossil fuel use fuelling development?
        India shifting to renewables?

        responsible for electricity, coal, oil, gas and foreign trade, shows that emissions increased by 2% in the first eight months of the year, ethan likes big ones a lower rate than any annual increase since 2001
        Slower growth in coal-based power generation will also benefit the country’s air quality efforts.
        Co2 emissions have doubled since 2005 due to increased coal use, growth has begun to slow down in 2019. Due to using electricity over coal. Increase in renewable power, low demand for non-renewable energy.
        CO2 emissions are down 7%.
