India presents a unique promise as the leading voice on the energy transition from the Global South. Recent developments at COP26 and announcements at the Union Budget signal India’s intent to drive economic growth through the route of sustainability. To emerge as a leader – and to fulfill its potential – India must square the trinity of jobs, growth and sustainability.
This fireside chat between Dr Naushad Forbes, Author of The Struggle and The Promise: Restoring India’s Potential, and Sukumar Ranganathan will build on this context. We will discuss the roles of different stakeholders in the society in enabling India’s leadership; the best practices that can aid this process while ensuring openness, inclusivity, innovation and independence; and getting the balance right between industry, institutions and policy.
