        …the world in energy efficiency and controlling emissions from major pollutants in key industries.The plan includes five main parts: general requirements, main objects, key energy conservation and emission reduction projects, policies, and implementation. Provisions relevant to the energy sector are summarized below.Focus industries·        Focus on steel, non-ferrous metals, construction materials, petrochemical and chemical industries. The plan includes action to upgrade the steel, cement, coking industries and coal-fired boilers to achieve ultra-low emissions. There is a target of completing ultra-low emission transformation for 530 million Mt of steel capacity by 2025.·        Promotion of energy-saving…

        Draft National Energy Policy

        …responsibility for energy policy is spread across different Ministries that hold the primary responsibility of setting their own sectoral agenda, an overarching policy framework is required to achieve the goal of energy security and facilitate coordination between these sources. This is also expected to mainstream emerging energy technologies, and provide consumer energy choices. The NEP builds on the achievements of the earlier overarching policy framework -the Integrated Energy Policy (IEP), and sets the new agenda consistent with the redefined role of emerging developments in the energy world. There are four key objectives to India's broad arching energy policy under…

        Chapter 5 presents the energy saving investment potential for various demand sectors in India by
        the year 2031. The chapter also explores current EE financing landscape across the world and
        suggests best suited schemes for Indian EE market.

        Chapter 6 assesses India’s NDC target emissions in absolute terms, calculates the achieved
        emission intensity reduction targets by 2030 and estimates the potential contribution of energy
        efficiency in emissions intensity reduction. It also provides a commentary on global progress made in
        achieving emission reduction commitments.
