Abstract

Carbon management from the energy sector is a key challenge before the nations. India as a nation is undergoing rapid economic and social transitions requiring diversified energy resources to meet basic energy needs of the people. India is having a 7% share in the world coal resources, and coal has been the dominant fuel for energy. Several policies that work toward climate change control by reducing or avoiding greenhouse gas emissions, exist. This chapter describes India’s energy scene, trends in coal consumption, and India’s renewable energy targets. To assess the potential of CO2 sequestration—carbon capture, utilization, and storage, in mitigating emissions from the Indian industry—CO2 emission scenarios need to be generated. Using basic assumptions from Coal Vision 2030, the CO2 emission projections in three scenarios of high coal, business-as-usual, and high renewable energy, without and with CO2 sequestration are calculated for 2017–2030. The current national and international CO2 sequestration research is highlighted.
