Coal to dominate in India through 2047 says report
AUGUST 1, 2017
** Although India boasts the world’s fourth largest coal reserve, the country will achieve peak domestic coal production in 2037 according to the study, and will then rely increasingly on imports. Under a business-as-usual scenario, coal imports could rise from 17 per cent in 2012 to 65 per cent in 2047.
India is predicted to have 333 coal-fired power plants installed in 2047, up from 125 in 2012, under the business-as-usual scenario. Under an ambitious scenario, that number could rise to 459.
*** CO2 emitted by developing countries is harmless. Only CO2 emitted in the US and Europe causes warming.
