Strengthening India’s energy security through alternative fuels and hydrogen
India’s energy transition is not about a single breakthrough but about steady steps across multiple fronts. Ethanol has shown how supportive policy and the right technologies can deliver both farmer security and fuel stability. BioCNG can turn waste into a resource, helping both cities and villages. Hydrogen, though still in its early stages, is slowly laying the foundations of a long-term clean energy system.

Are solar PV developers in India prepared for increasingly severe monsoons?
India witnessed above-average precipitation and prolonged cloud cover through July and August, limiting the potential of PV generation across many states. Several regions, including Punjab, Haryana, and the Himalayan foothills, were hit hardest by flooding and thunderstorms. The increase in atmospheric moisture and aerosol scattering led to reduced Global Horizontal Irradiation (GHI) and reduced energy output.
