India's development goals include meeting its climate commitments for 2030 and beyond. The coal-powered thermal power plant (TPP) sector, a bulwark of the country’s economy, is also the largest contributor to its emissions portfolio -- and hence, urgently requires a decarbonisation roadmap. The sector must modernise to balance rising energy demand with climate goals, and address challenges around demand forecasting, fleet efficiency, alternate fuel co-firing, power purchase agreements, merit order dispatch and renewable integration through flexibilization.
Centre for Science and Environment (CSE) is convening a day-long Round Table to initiate discussions on this critical issue, and present its own guidelines for decarbonising the sector. A new policy report will be released on the occasion. Expected to bring together experts, and stakeholders from the government, industry and civil society, the Round Table will aim to support the development of a strategic framework for decarbonising coal-based power, while ensuring energy security.
