No more coal fired power plants, India amends power policy draft

By C-DEP Team

India plans to stop building new coal-fired power plants, apart from those already in the pipeline, by removing a key clause from the final draft of its National Electricity Policy (NEP). The decision to stop building new coal-fired power plants aligns with India’s commitments under the Paris Agreement, which aims to limit global warming to below 2 degrees Celsius above pre-industrial levels.
