India vows to cut carbon intensity in Paris pledge
NEWDELHI — India’s
long-awaited pledge for
a global climate pact
shows how the world’s
No. 3 carbon polluter is
making significant efforts
to rein in the growth of
emissions linked to its
fast-surging demands
for energy, analysts said
Friday.
India vowed to reduce
its emissions intensity by
33-35 percent by 2030
from 2005 levels, primar-
ily by boosting the share
of electricity generated by
sources other than fossil
fuels such as coal and gas
to 40 percent.
That means India’s
emissions will continue
to grow as its economy
expands, but the increase
relative to economic out-
put will be lower than it
is now.
“Our every action will
be cleaner than what it
was earlier,” Environment
Minister
Prakash
Javadekar told report-
ers Friday, insisting that
Indian traditions and cul-
ture are already “at one
with nature.”
India was the last of
the major economies to
present its offer for the
U.N. climate deal that’s
supposed to be adopted
in December in Paris.
Javadekar said India
held its submission back
so it could coordinate
its filing with the Indian
holiday celebrating the
birthday Friday of the
country’s
forefather,
Mohandas K. Gandhi, an
ardent environmentalist.
As of Friday, 146
nations accounting for 87
percent of global carbon
emissions had submitted
their pledges.
Environmental groups
following the U.N. cli-
mate talks welcomed
India’s offer.
“India now has posi-
tioned itself as a glob-
al leader in clean ener-
gy, and is poised to play
an active and influential
role in the international
climate negotiations this
December,” said Rhea
Suh, president of the
New York-based Natural
Resources
Defense
Council.
Some said the carbon
intensity target was con-
servative and projected
that India would exceed
it if it meets its renewable
energy goals.
Climate analyst Samir
Saran at the Observer
Research Foundation, a
New Delhi think tank,
also described India’s
targets as ambitious and
“rooted in Indian reali-
ty,” given the fact that at
least 300 million citizens
— a fourth of the pop-
ulation — still have no
access to electricity at all,
while hundreds of mil-
lions more make do with
just a few hours a day.
India’s submission also
made that point, noting
that “it is estimated that
more than half of India
of 2030 is yet to be built.”
Prime
Minister
Narendra Modi has made
manufacturing and job
creation a key promise
of his administration,
and has implored foreign
companies and govern-
ments, with the slogan
“Make in India,” to help.
India also promised
aggressive reforestation
efforts, with enough new
trees to absorb up to 3
billion tons of carbon
dioxide by 2030, and laid
out plans for adapting to
changing weather and
temperatures.
India plans a fivefold
boost in renewable ener-
gy capacity in the next
five years to 175 giga-
watts, including solar
power, wind, biomass
and small hydropower
dams.
Even with a major
boost in renewable ener-
gy, India is also planning
to expand coal power
— the biggest source of
emissions — to satisfy its
energy needs. Coal-fired
power plants account
for about 60 percent of
India’s installed power
capacity.
By 2030, the govern-
ment said its installed
capacity from “non-fos-
sil fuel-based energy
resources” would grow
to 40 percent. Currently
non-fossil
sources
account for about 30 per-
cent — half of it solar and
wind power and the other
half large hydropower
and nuclear.
