Chapter Chapter 1 in Low Carbon Pathways for Growth in India, 2018, pp 3-6 from Springer

Abstract: Abstract This chapter sets out the context for the book. The central question asked in this book is what are the low-carbon paths that India can adhere to without compromising its growth? This question has been answered in the various chapters that follow. The first part of the book examines the current energy demand and supply in India, the low-carbon pathways and the cost of inaction due to loss in yield of food crops such as maize, rice and wheat. The second part of the book provides a detailed discussion of the energy challenges faced in key sectors such as transport, industry and urban water supply. The chapter also provides an outline for the book.
