Budget analysis: What is in store for India’s energy transition in 2023?

Climate Emergency

While presenting the annual budget last Wednesday, finance minister Nirmala Sitharaman listed seven priority areas that the budget had adopted this year. Green growth and energy transition has been kept among the priority areas and lies at the front and center of this year's Budget.

In this podcast, host Sneha Richhariya speaks to Mr. Deepak Krishnan, who is an associate director for World Resources Institute India's energy programme. We look at how India is planning what is being called one of the largest energy transition programmes in the world. We try to analyze if the provisions in this budget will help accelerate our transition to green energy. Above all, we also attempt to see how inclusive this transition is going to be.
