A general introduction covers the geography of energy resources, sources and basic principles of energy law, and the relevant governmental institutions. Then follows a detailed description of specific legislation and regulation affecting such factors as documentation, undertakings, facilities, storage, pricing, procurement and sales, transportation, transmission, distribution, and supply of each form of energy. Case law, intergovernmental cooperation agreements, and interactions with environmental, tax, and competition law are explained. Its succinct yet scholarly nature, as well as the practical quality of the information it provides, make this book a valuable resource for energy sector policymakers and energy firm counsel handling cases affecting India. It will also be welcomed by researchers and academics for its contribution to the study of a complex field that today stands at the foreground of comparative law.

Download or read book Energy Emissions Trends and Policy Landscape for India written by P.R. Shukla and published by Allied Publishers. This book was released on 2015-01-22 with total page 162 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: India’s energy system has evolved around domestic coal, sizable imports of oil and LNG, moderate contribution of hydro power, declining and yet sizable use of traditional biomass as cooking fuel by rural households and growing attention to modern renewable, nuclear and energy efficient technologies. India’s per-capita GHG emissions are below the global average and far below those in the developed countries. Notwithstanding the inherited fossil based energy system and high economic growth expectations, India voluntarily committed to reduce GHG emissions intensity of the economy by 20-25 per cent from 2005 to 2020. This book details inventory of energy and emissions at national and sector levels. It maps firm and locale level energy use and emissions and their impacts such as on the urban air pollution. The future energy and emissions trends are analyzed following scenarios analysis using integrated assessment modelling framework that aligns India’s national development goals with global climate change actions. The analysis shows that the global 2˚C temperature stabilization target shall require fundamental transformation of India’s energy system, both on demand and supply sides. The book demonstrates the necessity and validity of following a long-term development-centric perspective; even while delineating near-term energy and emissions policies, programs and targets such as those needed to delineate the Intended Nationally Determined Contributions (INDCs). The book, while illustrating the best practice modeling, scenarios development and policy assessment for India, provides insights into the mode and means of navigating the energy and emissions policy landscape for India. The complexity of the policymaking notwithstanding, the book is intended to demystify the methods and means for delineating the policies. The book, we hope demonstrates the need to use best practice methodologies for national assessments and also the existence of the scientific capacity in the country to carry out such assessments.

Download or read book Industrial Development Report written by United Nations Publications and published by UN. This book was released on 2016-01-14 with total page 288 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This report looks at how technology and innovation achieves inclusive and sustainable industrial development (ISID). Its main finding is that ISID is feasible and technology can simultaneously serve all three dimensions of sustainability, including economic, social and environmental. Rapid inclusive and sustainable industrialization can happen more frequently provided that policymakers firmly steer the industrialization process with opportune policies and avoid past mistakes. In some cases, the spread of technology has not materialized in concrete growth opportunities because of the lack of technological capabilities. Innovation needs to be supported by interventions strengthening the process from invention to adoption, as capabilities are developed and high tech manufacturing sectors are created, seeing higher rates of sustainable growth.

Download or read book Energy Efficiency and Fuel Substitution in the Cement Industry with Emphasis on Developing Countries written by Mogens H. Fog and published by . This book was released on 1983 with total page 100 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As a result of the sharp increase in the price of energy during the 1970s and the associated changes in the relative costs of alternative energy resources, all countries need to conserve energy and to replace expensive sources of energy with cheaper ones. The subjects of energy conservation and fuel substitution have therefore assumed increasing importance worldwide. The cement industry is one of the relatively energy-intensive industries with energy-related costs accounting for a major portion of the costs of manufacturing cement. The recent experience of the industrialized countries has shown that energy costs per unit of output of cement could be significantly reduced through a variety of measures ranging from better housekeeping, energy management, and improved monitoring and control systems to more capital-intensive investments in modifications to existing plant and equipment and conversion to more energy-efficient processes. This report aims at a broad presentation of concepts, measures and issues relevant to achieving such improvements in energy efficiency in the cement industry based on experience in both industrialized and developing countries.

Download or read book Demand for Energy in Indian Industries written by Joyashree Roy and published by Daya Books. This book was released on 1992 with total page 220 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Recent uncertainties in the supply of major source of energy that is oil has aroused enthusiasm in the study of the implication of increasingly scarce and higher priced energy inputs for the consumers in the constext of economic development. Thus, the price responsiveness of the consumers for fuels (especially for industrial consumers) has been extensively estimated for the developed countries and to a somewhat limited extent for developing countries, basically with two objectives in view: To estimate the feasibility and vulnerability of the consumers to rapidly changing supply and price situation through inter-fuel substitution possibilities. To deduce derived demand function for energy inputs from the production function, taking energy input as an Identifiable argument in the production function, thus invalidating the value added approach. This work contributes to the general trend by estimating elasticity of substitution and price elasticity for three conventional fuel types: coal, oil and electricity for the energy intensive manufacturing industries in India with the help of a three-input translog model. Content Chapter 1: Introduction; Chapter 2: Theoretical and Statistical Model; Chapter 3: Coverage, Construction and Analysis of Data; Chapter 4: Empirical Findings and Interfuel Substitution Possibilities; Chapter 5: Empirical Findings-Continued; Chapter 6: Elasticity Estimates as Policy Guide-With Special Reference to Energy Policy of Government of India; Chapter 7: Conclusion.

Download or read book Reforming Energy Policy in India written by Ian W.H. Parry and published by International Monetary Fund. This book was released on 2017-05-03 with total page 51 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Spreadsheet models are used to assess the environmental, fiscal, economic, and incidence effects of a wide range of options for reducing fossil fuel use in India. Among the most effective options is ramping up the existing coal tax. Annually increasing the tax by INR 150 ($2.25) per ton of coal from 2017 to 2030 avoids over 270,000 air pollution deaths, raises revenue of 1 percent of GDP in 2030, reduces CO2 emissions 12 percent, and generates net economic benefits of approximately 1 percent of GDP. The policy is mildly progressive and (at least initially) imposes a relatively modest cost burden on industries.

Download or read book An Outlook Into Energy Consumption in Large Scale Industries in India written by Monica Dutta and published by . This book was released on 2013 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: All the growth-oriented sectors in a developing economy consume enormous energy in their production processes. Steel, aluminium and cement are the key manufacturing industries in India which provide inputs to various other sectors such as construction, transportation, power transmission etc. As a result, their demand is consistently rising. These industries are heavily energy-intensive and use raw materials such as iron ore, coal, electricity, steam, and fuel oil, whose supply can act as severe production constraints over a period of time. Hence, it becomes imperative for these industries to continuously innovate energy efficient techniques. This paper makes a foray into the energy demand by these industries and explores the potential of any future reduction in their energy consumption. The paper offers a projection scenario (based on MARKAL Modeling exercise for India) for possible catching up in reduction in energy consumption in these sectors under alternative situations. The analysis suggests the existence of some plausible energy efficiency enhancing techniques in these industries. Exploring these options will definitely ensure cost-effectiveness and competitiveness of these three key sectors in the global market.
