India’s steel sector remains heavily dependent on imported coking coal. India’s next phase of steel expansion would lock the country into more than US$1 trillion in coking coal imports, deepening India’s energy import dependence, foreign-exchange exposure, and vulnerability to carbon border measures in export markets.

India’s Renewable Energy Breakthrough: Coal-Like Reliability at a Lower Fixed Price
Firm renewable power at Rs 5.25: reliable, inflation-proof, and below every coal PPA India signed in 2025.
India’s Aviation Opportunity: Turning Agricultural Residue and Low-Cost Solar into Competitive Sustainable Aviation Fuel with Power-and-Biomass-to-Liquids
IECC and Energy Innovation analysis indicates that India can produce power-and-biomass-to-liquids (PBtL) sustainable aviation fuel (SAF) at costs up to 40 percent below prevailing global benchmarks. Two domestic advantages underpin this result: among the lowest green-hydrogen costs observed internationally, and a large, increasingly organised supply of agricultural residue.
Estimating heatwave-induced excess mortality in India’s districts
India is among the world’s most heat-exposed nations, with hundreds of millions of people facing dangerous temperatures each summer and a mortality burden that remains poorly understood at the district level.
