India has announced its much awaited net-zero emissions target at COP-26. Being the world's third-largest greenhouse gas emitter, what does India's net-zero target mean for its energy-intensive sectors?
What are the Sectoral Impacts of India's 2070 Net-Zero Target?

What are the Sectoral Impacts of India's 2070 Net-Zero Target?
India's choice of net-zero year should minimise climate impacts and also give it enough space to develop. A target of 2050 or 2060 would need rapid systemic changes across all sectors.
What year would you set as the net-zero target?
2070
2050
2060
2080
Next
What are some of these technologies?
In order to lead this transition, India's growing energy demand will have to be increasingly met through clean sources, aided by new climate-friendly technologies.
To attain net zero by 2050, India's emissions will have to peak by 2030.
Technologies like Carbon Capture, Utilisation and Storage (CCUS) and green hydrogen would be critical in a net-zero future. However, at present, these technologies are still in a nascent stage of scalable deployment.

Equity must be at the heart of the net-zero debate. Developed economies should significantly advance their target of achieving net-zero and not wait till 2050. Further, they should deliver the $100 billion climate finance “as a floor, not a ceiling”.
India's economic cost for a net zero transition by 2050 could be over USD 12,000 billion (2015 prices) between 2030 and 2100.

What are some of these technologies?
In order to lead this transition, India's growing energy demand will have to be increasingly met through clean sources, aided by new climate-friendly technologies.
To attain net zero by 2080, India's emissions will have to peak by 2050.
Technologies like Carbon Capture, Utilisation and Storage (CCUS) and green hydrogen would be critical in a net-zero future. However, at present, these technologies are still in a nascent stage of scalable deployment.
