India's energy transition and SDGs: Role of G20

India’s G20 presidency comes at both opportune and challenging times from an energy transition perspective. India has committed to moving away from its traditional dependence on fossil fuels and embracing renewable energy sources.

It needs to provide uninterrupted and quality power to all citizens while managing the intermittency of renewable energy sources.
