Cover Story: India, the world’s most populous nation and the third-largest emitter of greenhouse gases (GHGs), faces a critical challenge in reconciling its emission reduction targets with its growing energy needs. Coal currently dominates the energy mix, hindering the reduction of GHG emissions. Despite commendable strides in renewables such as solar and hydrogen, they are unlikely to meet the projected energy demand increase. Exploring scenarios with differing GDP growth rates and using multiple forecasting techniques, our research predicts a significant natural gas shortfall by 2050, with LNG imports estimated to cover 30–50% of this deficit. Based on these predictions, we recommend boosting domestic gas production, increasing LNG imports, and continuing to expand renewables to ensure long-term energy security and sustainability.
