The nation’s approach focuses on fostering global collaboration, advancing technological development, and enhancing domestic capacity to achieve energy security while addressing climate change.

This report explores India’s integrated energy strategy, leveraging partnerships with international organisations, technology leaders, and emerging markets to drive innovation, enhance energy security, and promote economic development. By highlighting key initiatives—from policy reforms and technology transfers to capacity building and industrial scaling —the report aims to demonstrate how India addresses critical challenges while creating new opportunities in renewable energy.

India’s vision transcends domestic ambitions, aiming to serve as a global model for inclusive and sustainable energy transitions. By fostering international cooperation and leveraging its unique geopolitical position, India ensures its energy future and contributes to the fight against climate change. This approach represents India’s commitment to a renewable-powered future, balancing environmental responsibility with economic progress.

BIOFUELS ENERGY

In the current geopolitical landscape, growing concerns regarding dependence on fuel imports and environmental degradation have prompted the pursuit of alternative fuels that offer enhanced environmental sustainability and are economically competitive with fossil fuels. This has envisioned the strategic role of biofuels in the global energy basket.

Biofuels provide opportunities for reducing reliance on fossil fuels and climate mitigation while also representing the possibility of substituting between two essential but very different commodities: food and energy. The diversion of agricultural resources to energy production has implications for food production that are of special concern to developing countries whose expenditure patterns are most food-intensive.

Biofuel, particularly in high petroleum-importing countries, provides a means to rapid innovation to reduce greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions, lower dependence on the import of crude oil, achieve foreign exchange savings, provide better remuneration for the farmers, as well as address growing environmental issues owing to the use of fossil fuels and burning of biomass.

Biofuel further aids in addressing challenges in waste management, supports agri-residue management, and, on a far-fetched scale, stimulates a new agribusiness energy industry in high-income economies with more energy-intensive expenditures. This comprehensive outlook delineates this part of India's energy diplomacy on achieving energy security and offers recommendations for the enhanced utilisation of biofuels.
