Draft Unlocking National Energy Efficiency potential (UNNATEE) Strategy Plan Towards Developing an Energy Efficient Nation 2017-2031

Last updated: 12 May 2021
Draft strategy issued in March 2019. Chapter 1 establishes India’s current year (baseline) energy supply and demand, broken down intoprimary energy and electricity. It also covers identified data gaps in energy data reporting practiceand recommendations on effective energy data management (EDM). Chapter 2 presents a comprehensive mapping of current polices, programs and action plans in Indiaapplicable for energy and energy end-use sectors. The coverage of policies and programs includenational programs, state programs (SDAs and DISCOMs), local level programs (municipalities andpanchayats) and other indirect policies that affect energy efficiency (Montreal Protocol, Kigali meetingand Smart Cities). Chapter 3 presents a mapping of key future technologies that would impact energy consumption ineach of the demand sectors and provides a detailed analysis of five of the key future technologies Chapter 4 establishes energy saving potential of various sectors in India by the year 2031. It alsoforecasts energy consumption by various sectors in India. The methodology for calculation of energysaving potential is discussed in this chapter. The allocation of energy saving targets to each stateand sector is established in this chapter Chapter 5 presents the energy saving investment potential for various demand sectors in India bythe year 2031. The chapter also explores current EE financing landscape across the world andsuggests best suited schemes for Indian EE market. Chapter 6 assesses India’s NDC target emissions in absolute terms, calculates the achievedemission intensity reduction targets by 2030 and estimates the potential contribution of energyefficiency in emissions intensity reduction. It also provides a commentary on global progress made inachieving emission reduction commitments. Chapter 7 establishes a national implementation strategy for achieving energy saving target. It alsoprovides a review of global best practices for scaling up energy efficiency. It also covers a review ofinternational energy efficiency strategies.
