LAUNCH WEBINAR: Mapping India’s Energy Subsidies 2020

Описание: This webinar will marked the launch of IISD and CEEW’s latest update of energy subsidy data in India "Mapping India's Energy Subsidies 2020: Fossil fuels, renewables and electric vehicles".

Subsidies matter because they are used by governments around the world to influence energy producers and consumers. They take up resources that are now more precious than ever - so they need to achieve their objectives, efficiently. And in the coming months, government economic interventions are sure to lean heavily on subsidy policies. "Mapping India’s Energy Subsidies 2020: fossil fuels, renewables and electric vehicles" examines how the Government of India has used subsidies to support different types of energy, highlighting the most significant developments from FY 2014 to FY 2019. We seek to answer: How have India’s energy subsidy policies changed? What have been the most significant developments in India’s dynamic energy policy environment? And is public support aligned with India’s desired energy future?
