Abstract: The G20, a leading multilateral forum for global cooperation and decision-making, is taking the lead to foster dialogue and deliberation on green energy transition through energy collaboration and action agenda. The G20 countries are accountable for more than three-quarters of global greenhouse gas emissions collectively. Individually, all the members have net-zero emissions domestic pledges and action plans to gear up their transition towards green energy regimes. Although most countries have submitted stronger NDC targets over time, their overall implementation is still insufficient to meet 1.5°C goal. India, as the current President of the group, strived to build consensus on decarbonisation, rationalisation of energy mix, and financing the transition to green energy. The article, while examining G20’s attempts in this direction, examines India’s constraints on the way to building consensus on green energy transition for net-zero emissions.
