The energy transition of India's transport sector, significant to fulfil India's commitment to net-zero emissions by 2070, faces several hurdles. Discuss. (Answer in 150 words)
Main Body
Energy transition refers to the shift from the fossil fuels to renewable energy. Its from petrol engines to electric vehicles. Significance in energy transition in addressing net-zero emissions (1) Reduce the pollution, especially GHG emissions. => CO2, NOx, O2, etc. (2) Energy intensity reduction. => Reduce the energy intensity of fossil fuels by 45% by 2030. (3) Specific targets on net-zero emissions. => Railways target of becoming net-zero by 2040. (4) International credibility lay reducing the carbon footprint. => CEAM non-tariff measure.
Hurdles present: (1) Over-reliance on fossil fuels => Coal (2) Technological hurdles. => a Li-ion batteries. => b These explored energy sources. => Geo-thermal energy. (3) Non-binding treaties. The energy transition should be just and equitable to achieve sustainable development.
Conclusion
The energy transition should be just and equitable to achieve sustainable development.
