Ministry of New & Renewable Energy Called For The Quest For New Energy Technologies
In the carbon constraint world of today quest for new energy technologies assumes great importance in view of the inherent problems that exists in current energy systems.

Talking on “Prospects of EU-India S&T Cooperation in the field of Renewable Energy – a perspective for India,” Co-chair, India Dr. A. Ramachandran said because of growing concern about high oil prices, energy security and climate change has changed the focus on certain key areas of energy research around the globe.

In this context this workshop is timely and most relevant in the context of India – EU framework of S&T cooperation. Dr. Ramachandran explained energy issues have become complex as they are inextricably linked to various economic, social and environmental aspects of development. Many of these issues transcend national boundaries. There is growing awareness among all stakeholders of the compelling necessity for the world as a whole to make a transition to clean energy technologies.

Dr. Ramachandran appealed to incorporate a diversified portfolio of energy technology options along with the likely timeframe for the development and deployment, leading to sustainable energy pathways. He said renewable energy in India has made noteworthy progress under the stewardship of the Ministry of New And Renewable Energy but the overall impact remains relatively small. To make the share of renewable energy visible in the total energy makes, the national effort has to be scaled up several fold from the present level.
