The Global Energy Monitor (GEM) and the Center for Research on Energy and Clean Air (CREA) released a new analysis, stating that India is developing disproportionate coal-based power capacity.
The latest Global Energy Monitor report reveals a worrying trend: global coal-fired steelmaking capacity is increasing rather than decreasing, despite the urgent need for decarbonisation.
In a recent analysis by the Center for Science and Environment (CSE), it was revealed that India's coal-fired power plants are struggling to meet emission standards, particularly in controlling Sulfur dioxide emissions (SO2).
While the start-up of new coal power projects in the country has been at its lowest level in years, plans for new projects are still being made and there is no clear plan to shut down old plants with low output and efficiency.
Many countries of the world started closing coal power plants. To deal with climate change and to control the temperature of the earth, it is necessary to find new sources of energy and stop the energy sources that emit carbon
