21. India’s Energy Snapshot
Low per capita energy
consumption: 596 kgoe
(2011/12) (World average 1802
kgoe per capita)
Per capita consumption of
electricity 884 kWh/annum
(2011/12) (World average: 3044
kWh/annum)
80% of rural India dependent on
traditional fuels for cooking
Fossil fuels account for about 70%
of the primary energy supply
Sustained economic growth and social development require increasing
energy use 21

30. Energy Access
Lighting
It has been estimated that the annual
expenditure on kerosene for lighting by off-
grid and under-electrified households is
around USD 2.2 billion. Out of this, around
USD 1.8 billion is spent by rural households
Cooking
Inefficient burning of biomass in traditional
cookstoves requiring higher quantities and
leading to pollution
Indoor air pollution from burning of solid
fuels increases health risks

33. Energy Security Driven
Scenarios
Scenarios Storyline
Energy Security Moderate
(ESM)
A determined effort is provided here for efficiency improvements
both on the supply and demand sides, an accelerated push for
diversifying the energy mix, increasing renewables, and
penetration of new technologies. Efforts are made to increase
domestic production.
Energy Security Ambitious
(ESA)
Energy security concerns, are paramount here. The main
objective being to drastically reduce the energy imports of the
country by 2031. This entails faster implementation of efficiency
measures, rapid penetration of new technologies, and increased
electrification of the economy. The role of renewables is crucial in
this scenario.

34. Primary Energy Growth
• The ESM reflects a
saving of 17% while
the ESA reflects a
saving of 26% in
2031/32 when
compared to the RES
levels
• The share of new
renewable energy
increases to 3% in
ESM and 7% in ESA
compared to 2% in
RES in 2031/32
• The share of fossil
fuels in the RES stands
at 83%, while in the
ESM it drops to 79%
and in the ESA to 74%
by 2031/32

35. Imports
Coal imports see a drop of over
700MT in the alternate
scenarios as compared to the
RES levels in 2031/32
Oil imports drop by 140MT in
ESM and become less than half
of the RES levels in the ESA in
2031/32
In the ESM, gas imports are
lower than the RES levels in
2031/32, however, in the ESA
gas imports see an increase of
around 60 BCM. This is because
Natural Gas is seen as a bridge
fuel in the move towards a less
import dependent, secure, and
cleaner economy.

transition
Of the 77 million off-grid
households in India, the
estimated dissemination of solar
products comes out be just 4 to 5
per cent
In almost 2 years, it is possible to
have complete transition from
kerosene to solar energy for
lighting off grid households in India

In ESA we see a fall by ten times in the use of petroleum product in the sector as compared to the
RES (2031)
Electrification of the sector in both ESM and ESA is coupled with penetration of energy efficiency

Figure SPM.1 | (a) Observed global mean combined land and ocean surface temperature anomalies, from 1850 to 2012 from three data sets. Top panel: annual mean values. Bottom panel: decadal mean values including the estimate of uncertainty for one dataset (black). Anomalies are relative to the mean of 1961−1990. (b) Map of the observed surface temperature change from 1901 to 2012 derived from temperature trends determined by linear regression from one dataset (orange line in panel a). Trends have been calculated where data availability permits a robust estimate (i.e., only for grid boxes with greater than 70% complete records and more than 20% data availability in the first and last 10% of the time period). Other areas are white. Grid boxes where the trend is significant at the 10% level are indicated by a + sign.
