Letters Renewable energy This has reference to the article “Renewed thrust on alternative energy” (Business Line, July 30). From a national standpoint, India’s stand on emission reductions is correct. But if one looks at the billion plus population of India, you can see a “developed India” as well as a “third world India” in terms of energy intensity. The focus should be on reducing the energy intensity of ‘first-world Indian’. It would be interesting to compare this figure with the average of developed economies.

But tonnes of coal and other fossil fuels are burnt to produce power, polluting environment. Ranjith Menon Ernakulam More Stories on : Letters | Non-conventional Energy
