Energy Sector in India will soon be undergoing a paradigm shift, if the Union Government implements two key announcements made by the Finance Minister. The first is to shut down all the thermal power units spewing out pollutants over the permissible limit, and the second in installing solar plants along railway tracks. Focusing on Renewable Energy is a good idea, but it must be translated into reality and must not remain an idea, as has been the case with many other great ideas, like doubling farmers’ income, jobs to all hand, and so on. Even in the renewable energy sector, we have been hearing big talks but witnessing dismal performance, though India has committed itself to rapid and large-scale renewable energy capacity addition.
