ADDRESS BY THE CHAIRMAN
Honourable Chief Guest Shri B. K. Chaturvedi, Prof. D.C. Panigrahi,
Director, Members of the General Council, Executive Board and
Academic Council, distinguished members of Faculty, staff of the
Institute, honourable guests in the audience, members of press and
media, recipients of degrees and awards and dear students.
It is indeed a privilege for me to preside over the 34th Convocation of the Indian
School of Mines. It has been a long and a continuing journey for the Institution since it was
set up in 1926. While the area of the Campus of 218 acres has not expanded since the year of
its inception when ISM had less than 100 students, the strength has gone up, at first
gradually to about 1000 at the turn of the century and then phenomenally to nearly 4000
now. We can expect it to increase to about 5000 students in the next 2-3 years. It is evident
that we are going through a phase of expansion and many new buildings and facilities are in
the process of being added to meet the requirements of increasing strength of students,
faculty and staff. To cite only a few, a 1200 Boy's Hostel sanctioned at a cost of over Rs.40
crores, a new Lecture Hall Complex sanctioned at a cost of about Rs.20 crores, an Academic
Complex sanctioned for about Rs.93 crores and a New Central Library at a cost of about
Rs.60 crores are at various stages of construction and should all be completed in the near
future. With the additions to the infrastructure, the Campus has virtually reached a
saturation point and further expansion is severely constrained due to lack of space for
putting up new structures.
It is in this backdrop that we have been pursuing allotment of some additional land
with the State Government and, finally, the efforts appear to have borne fruit. It is
understood that the State Government has recently approved allotment of 175 acres of
additional land in contiguous area and an initial allotment of Rs.10 crores has been
sanctioned and placed at the disposal of the Deputy Commissioner, Dhanbad for
commencement of the acquisition proceedings. We are indeed grateful to the authorities
concerned and particularly the Chief Minister of Jharkhand, for this allotment of land and to
the Hon'ble Minister of Human Resource Development, in the Central Government, for
having taken up this issue with the State Government on behalf of Indian School of Mines.
Once the additional land is made available to ISM, the constraints of space, hindering
development of infrastructure to meet our growing requirements, would be removed.
As in previous years, I would like to take this opportunity to share some thoughts on
a substantive issue of concern for the development of our country and one that, at the same
time, impinges on the future of our students. The issue that I would like to say a few words
on is about the present status and future of the coal industry in India.
9
Dhanbad is situated in the heart of the coal belt and when ISM started the objective
was mainly to cater to meeting requirements of Mining Engineers and Geologists for
development and running of the coal mines. The largest number of engineers working in
coal mines are from ISM. While the Institute has since diversified and produces quality
graduates and post-graduates in a number of engineering disciplines, earth sciences and also
management, because of its location and history the coal industry remains a key concern.
Almost 70% of the energy demand of the country is met from coal. This is likely to
continue for several decades since the possibility of increasing dependence on other sources
in lieu of coal, such as nuclear power or solar power, for commercial energy remain
constrained due to reasons we need not go into.
The economy is planned to grow by at least 8 to 9% in the XII Plan period and well
beyond. Concomitantly the energy demand would also rise at the same rate and so would
the demand for coal. Production of coal in India has increased from a little over 70 million
tonnes at the time of nationalization in 1972-73 to 531 million tones in 2009-10. This
appears to be impressive, though not when we consider the fact that the production has
virtually been stagnant at the same level during the last two years and not likely to register
any significant increase in 2011-12 either. Imports of coal, including power grade coal, have
also been going up and were of the order of 67 million tones in 2010. Given that we have
substantial reserves of non-coking coal, this reflects adversely on the planning and
development of coal production in India.
The reasons are not far to seek. At the time of nationalization of coal mines 80% of
the production was from underground mines and the remaining from the open-cast mines.
This ratio has been reversed inasmuch as about 85% of coal production is now from opencast mines and only the remainder from the underground mines.
A thrust was given for opening new opencast mines because such mines can be
developed for production more speedily than underground mines and the recovery of coal is
nearly 100%. But the disadvantage is that opencast mines are prone to cause more
environmental degradation and pollution.
In view of stricter enforcement of
environmental laws and difficulties in obtaining forest clearances, opening of new mines has
faced hindrances, with consequential adverse impact on augmentation of coal production
and supply. We are now paying a price for neglect in the development of underground
mines. This is underscored if we briefly compare our situation with that of China. That
country now produces about 3.2 billion tones of coal, i.e. about six times that of our country.
Out of this, 90% is from underground mines and only 10% from opencast mines, which is
quite the reverse of the scenario in India. Further, out of the production from underground
mines 95% is from mines using longwall mining techniques, where the recovery of coal is to
10
the extent of 80%. In India we have failed to make a success of longwall mining and recovery
in the manual and semi-mechanized underground mines is 40% of the reserves at best.
It is evident that if coal from indigenous sources is to meet the ever increasing
demand of the energy sector, complete reorientation of policies and methodologies related
to coal mining in India is called for; otherwise we will be increasing the dependence on
imports of non-coking coal of which, ironically, we have adequate reserves to sustain a much
higher level of production. The outlook is rendered even more bleak because of the
controversy surrounding the policies relating to allocation of coal blocks and the continuing
problems pertaining to adequate transportation capacity, especially in regard to availability
of railway wagons.
This scenario is grim and calls for remedial action by our planners and also those responsible
for development and production of coal from the mines in India. The emphasis has to
decisively shift to development of underground mechanized mines. This may take time to
yield dividends but is indubitably the right way forward.
I would like to take this opportunity to convey my congratulations and best wishes to
all those who have obtained their degrees today and wish them all success in their future
endeavours. Many of you have excelled and also obtained prizes but everyone has the
capacity to succeed because it has rightly been said and I quote 'with ordinary talent and
extraordinary perseverance all things are attainable'. You have received quality education
at ISM and have inherited a great tradition. I am sure you will live up to it.
As you step into the wide world from the portals of this Institution, please remember
what Ralph Waldo Emerson said:
“We are all inventors, each sailing out on a voyage of discovery, guided each by a
private chart, of which there is no duplicate. The world is all gates, all opportunities.”

ADDRESS BY THE CHIEF GUEST
ENERGY AND INDIAN ECONOMY
1.1 I am happy to be here today amidst so many experts in the field of
mining and a range of other sectors, including petroleum engineering,
computer science, electronics, electrical engineering, environmental
engineering and other disciplines. It is always a delight for me to be with
the young minds. They provide fresh outlook and boldness of ideas which is critical for
development of a society. The Institute has developed over a period of years as a place of
excellence. Starting from 1926 when it was established, it gradually expanded from mining
to a range of other disciplines, including petroleum engineering and has, thus, now become a
prime Institute for all those who wish to learn about mining and developments in related
areas.
1.2 May I start by congratulating all those boys and girls who have obtained the degree
today and would be passing out from the Institute? This occasion is a watershed for everyone
who is participating in the process. As many of you will go out to seek careers in mining or
other fields, the predominant image in your minds is always going to be that of your Alma
Mater and how you made mistakes and learnt from those new ideas and opportunities for
development. Please accept my heartiest congratulations on this occasion and I wish you the
best for your future. Let me, however, take up with you an important issue which has
enormous importance for our economy, the question of energy in the context of the Indian
economic growth.
Economic Growth
2.1 In a modern world all nations strive to develop economically so that they can provide a
good quality of life for their citizens. India has adopted a model of growth which is anchored
in our democratic institutions, a state in which we wish to improve the life of its citizens and
provide to its children education and nutrition. During the first 40 years of our
independence, which is generally referred to as the pre-reform era, the focus was on a mixed
economy aiming for self-sufficiency in various economic needs. The barriers to imports
during this period were quite high. This era was marked by development of Public Sector
Undertakings. The investments in the Private Sector of the economy were limited. The
country had a focus on projects which could earn foreign exchange or save foreign exchange.
The tariff barriers to imports were as high as 100% or more in some cases. This resulted in a
parallel black-market economy. Our integration with the global economy was limited due to
absence of meaningful competition from other international players. In some sense, it was
nearer to a closed economy. The country grew at an average rate of about 4% per annum.
13
The economists called it “the Hindu Rate of Growth”.With the population growing at about
2.2% per annum, the per capita incomes grew at an average rate of 1.8% annually. The lack
of effective competition to the Indian industry led to high costs and uncompetitive
behaviour in our producers. This resulted in production of goods, which were often
uncompetitive in the international markets. The share of exports to the GDP was around
7%-8%. The green revolution in 1970s helped us develop our agriculture production and
improve self-sufficiency in foodgrains.
2.2 The country gradually moved over to a path where economic reforms became must. In
the 1990s, the process of reforms started with lowering of tariff barriers, inviting private
competition and investments. Policies for promoting Foreign Direct Investments were
formulated and the economy opened up to the global investors. In the post-reform era,
growth rates picked up gradually. During the two decades between 1991 and 2010 the
growth rates increased to an annual average of 6.6% with the second decade seeing a growth
of 7.7% and even exceeding 9% in several years. This has led to increase in per capita
incomes from $762 in 2005 to $1,475 in 2010. For international comparison, since the
currencies do not really reflect the purchasing power in terms of commodities available in
domestic markets of various countries, the concept of Purchase Price Parity is used. In these
terms, the per capita incomes in 2010 were $3,582, a growth of 40% over a 5-year period.
2.3 The Twelfth Five Year Plan has in its Approach Paper suggested an annual GDP growth
of 9% in the next 5 years. At these levels of growth, India should become a middle-income
country by 2030 and have per capita incomes of $8,000-10,000 per annum. This would also
lead to substantial improvement in quality of life. It will enable increase in incomes of the
entire population to Above the Poverty Line levels. There are, however, concerns on the
growth strategy, specifically relating to sharp increase in disparities in consumption and
incomes. The experience globally is that this model leads to growth but also increases
income disparities. The experience of China has been quite similar in this area. The positive
aspect, however, is that with rising incomes, consumption rises at all levels leading to
improved quality even for the poorest section of population. This is a challenging task for all
planners.
Energy and Economy
3.1 The strategy for growth has a strong relationship with energy. The global primary
energy requirements during next twenty five years are likely to grow by 1.2% per annum.
This will pose two challenges. First, availability of energy resources globally being limited,
acquisition of overseas energy assets will be planned by many countries. Second, energy
prices will increase sharply as demand picks up. The distortion in the international economy
due to increase in the price of energy is affecting the growth opportunities in many
developing countries. An indicator of this is the price of oil, which was around $22 per barrel
14
a decade back and touched $150 per barrel some time back recently. The import bill of many
countries has, therefore, multiplied manifold. It has an effect on their ability to spend on
other areas like health, education with resources getting tied up for oil needs. This is
especially affecting countries, like India, where large population is below the poverty line,
since huge subsidies have to be provided for diesel, LPG and kerosene in addition to its
impact on the overall foreign exchange reserves. The current account deficit due to high
cost of imports was estimated at 3.6% in 2011-12.The increased energy consumption also
leads to larger greenhouse gas emissions. Indirectly this, too, has also an impact on energy
prices as several countries have decided to impose carbon tax or increase prices of coal in
recent times. This has an adverse impact on the ability of developing economies to sustain
growth in the long-run.
3.2 Many of the developing economies like India have very low energy consumption
because of low per capita incomes. As their economies grow, the energy requirements also
increase. For example, India's power consumption is one-fourth of the world average. There
is about 25% of population which does not have access to electricity. Power will also be
required to meet the requirements of manufacturing industry, trade and commerce and
increased domestic consumptions. The Twelfth Plan estimates the annual requirements of
energy to grow by 6%-6.5% per annum in the next five years. According to an Expert
Committee, the requirements of energy for India will grow by three times by 2030. The
Chinese energy consumption is nearly three times that of India and is slated to grow in the
coming decades as their economy is growing rapidly at 10% in the last three decades.
3.3 The greenhouse gas emissions would also increase due to increasing energy
consumption of developing economies. There is a serious global concern today on rising
greenhouse gas emissions. These emissions are gases, including carbon dioxide and nitrous
oxide, which have harmful effects on the overall climate. It is estimated by the UN
appointed International Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) that the emissions of greenhouse
0
gases has resulted in an increase in temperature on earth by 0.8 C since early Twentieth
Century with most of it occurring in the last 30 years. It is also estimated that the
0
0
temperatures may rise further by 1.1 C to 2 C or even higher depending on the greenhouse
gas emissions even in optimistic scenarios. The global community's effort is to ensure that
emissions are fixed at 450 ppm of CO2. An agreement was reached in Copenhagen amongst
major economies of the world in December, 2009 that the temperatures increase will be kept
limited to 20 C by 2050 and emission targets would be voluntarily announced by various
nations.
Management of Energy Demand
4.1 The rate of growth of greenhouse gas emissions can be moderated by reducing energy
intensity of GDP. The management of energy demand and greenhouse gas emissions has to
15
be undertaken by the country in several ways. The most important task is to moderate the
energy efficiency of various energy-consuming processes. In India, we have launched a
National Energy Efficiency programme. An important task under it is to improve energy
efficiency of industries, which are otherwise highly energy guzzling. These include steel,
cement, oil refineries, fertilizer manufacturing units, aluminium industries. There is a need
to benchmark their energy efficiency and constantly improve it to those levels. It will also be
necessary to undertake research and additional investments in modernizing these units so
that the energy consumption is sharply reduced. This process has already been taken up but
will need to be constantly pursued. The second important initiative required is to improve
energy efficiency of energy-consuming consumer and industrial goods. These include
televisions, fans, air conditioners, refrigerators, power transformers, agriculture pumpsets
and use of LED or CFL lights. Two approaches on this have been adopted. First, a star rating
is being done to constantly improve energy efficiency. For example, Air Conditioners with 5Star rating have to improve constantly. After some time a new benchmark for 5-Star rating is
undertaken and the norms thus constantly keep getting upgraded. What was 5-Star
yesterday becomes 4-Star today and 3-Star tomorrow. The second process involves using
energy supply companies (Escos) to undertake replacement of items like electric bulbs and
share the energy saving advantages. This enables them to offset the high cost of LED or CFL
lights, which are otherwise highly energy efficient. A third approach is to encourage
manufacturers of these mass consumption items like electric fans or televisions to upgrade
technology and manufacture super energy efficient products. To compensate them, certain
incentive is provided by the government as an interim measure. As the economies of scale
start operating, it becomes profitable for these companies to move over to the energy
efficient products.
4.2 The next category of initiative for energy efficiency relate to urban development. It has
become important that model building laws are adopted by municipal bodies across the
country to enable development of greener buildings. The intention is to develop energy
efficient buildings, both commercial and residential. These would use the natural lights to
the maximum possible extent and the normal energy available to improve temperatures
inside the buildings to more comfortable levels. Adoption of these bye-laws and its
implementation across the country is a difficult task in a federal structure like ours. State
Governments who are responsible for administration of many of these bodies and third-tier
of the Government, namely Municipalities and Corporations, have not so far effectively
promoted these laws and implemented them. The process will take some time. This,
however, is extremely critical for energy saving in our day-to-day living.
4.3 The transport system is a large consumer of petroleum products. Energy efficiency in
this is, therefore, important. Several measures need to be taken in this. The most important,
16
however, of these is an improvement in the energy efficiency of cars, SUVs, trucks, passenger
buses etc. These have to be benchmarked to use of diesel or petrol consumed per kilometre
of travel. This will require large investments by automobile industry. It will also require
investments in the R&D so that there is constant improvement in the energy efficiency.
Simultaneously, in the existing stock of vehicles, there will be need to constantly upgrade
and phase out the inefficient ones. Efforts are being made under the Energy Conservation
Act to benchmark the efficiency levels of vehicles depending on the size. It is expected that
from 2015 mandatory norms will apply to per kilometre consumption of oil by these
automobiles. It has to be realized that nearly 40% of the energy consumption of the country
is used in the Transport Sector. The Road network needs to improve to enable more efficient
use. The programme for National Highways Development being undertaken currently
should help in this process.
4.4 Energy efficiency is crucial for improving overall energy intensity norms of the
economy. An important initiative in this sector is policy interventions and investments
which would promote larger use of public transport and specifically Rail which is highly
energy efficient. The global experience is that Rail movement is 80% more efficient in
freight and 60% more efficient in passenger movement as compared to roads. The
investment in this sector would, therefore, have to increase substantially. There is also need
to improve the quality, efficiency and reach of public transport to enable its larger usage.
Similarly, coastal transport movement for freight is preferable to all other modes in terms of
energy efficiency. Overall traffic planning, therefore, has to include logistics in a way that
these movements are promoted for long distance transport. Coastal movement will similarly
have a major effect on improving energy efficiency.
4.5 The network of both Railways and Inland Waterways needs to be expanded. There are
serious concerns on slow pace of expansion of Rail network. Over a period of last 60 years,
the network has expanded only by around 12,000 kms. It has, thus, left many areas in the
North-East, Himalayan region, central India, especially in the tribal belt of Jharkhand,
Madhya Pradesh, Chhattisgarh and areas in Maharashtra and Odisha poorly covered. It has
been so, primarily because the Railways have planned for major investments in economically
profitable areas. Many regions mentioned above are not so. This policy needs to be modified.
While there is a great number of lines which are under construction in these areas, very little
money is being allocated to these for completion. There is a need to plan the expansion and
gradually cover the uncovered regions. Simultaneously, the Railways will have to run on
business lines to enable them to invest and expand. Another area of concern in the
Transport Sector is the poor development of Inland Waterways. The Himalayan Mountains
are young and fragile. Rivers from these bring large silt in the plains. It is important that the
desilting or dredging operations are carried out constantly to maintain effective navigation
17
in the river. Unfortunately, our inland waterways which include Ganga and Brahmaputra
have not been utilized fully. Investments in dredging and infrastructure facilities are
required to promote these movements.
Energy Efficiency in Power Sector
5.1 The other area of energy efficiency is the Power Sector. Today large losses take place in
transmitting power and distributing it to the consumers. Globally the energy losses in
Transmission & Distribution network vary from 5% to 10%. Even in large countries like
Brazil where networks have long lengths, the energy losses were 16% in 2009.Countries
make efforts to improve the network. In India, however, the losses in transmission and
distribution of power are about 25%. This is extremely high and need to be reduced. It has to
be realized that if the losses can be reduced, to that extent, requirements of energy will go
down. It is also possible to utilize Information Technology and develop smart grid networks.
These will help in use of available power in most efficient manner thereby reducing the
requirement of power itself. Development of smart grids using Information Technology is an
important initiative and needs to be pursued. There is indeed a huge upside to reducing
power losses. This programme has been taken up by different States. Effective policy
interventions and large investments are, however, required to develop the distribution
network in an efficient manner.
5.2 The second major initiative required in Power Sector is generation capacities based on
Ultra Super Critical and Super Critical Technologies. What is happening today is that a large
number of power plants are based on coal. The conversion of energy, which is available with
coal to power, is done through burning coal, producing steam and using it for power
generation. The earlier power plants had inefficient systems. It is possible to use steam at
very high pressures and temperatures, and thereby generate larger power. The plants require
special boilers and turbines and generators for this. The new technology is able to improve
energy efficiency by 6%-10% points. Such an improvement can lead to 20%-30% reduced
coal consumption and thereby improve energy efficiency of the power generation. These
measures are contemplated in the Five Year Plans. It will be important that the coming Plans
undertake it in a mandatory manner and constantly improve technologies for better energy
efficiency.
Development of Sustainable Energy Sources
6.1 While it is possible to improve energy efficiency and thereby reduce the requirement of
energy for the economy, development of sustainable energy sources is important for
restricting greenhouse gas emissions. Even otherwise it is critical as mineral sources are
limited. Two of the major initiatives in this regard which are being accepted across the globe
are power generation from solar and wind energy. Both these have strong potential in our
18
country. The solar power can be generated through photovoltaic cells as well as solar
thermal technology. Both are being used globally. So far, however, generation of energy from
this source is limited. It has two limitations. First, the cost of solar power is quite high.
However, in recent times efforts made to expand the scale of solar power is leading to
reduction in the costs of power by 50%. At this rate, the economics of scale and development
of new technologies can enable the generation of solar power at economic rates competing
well with the coal power generation which is the main source of power today. Second, solar
power is available only during the day. This severely restricts its usage. It requires, therefore,
batteries which can be charged with solar power and be used when the solar energy is not
available. Third, because of the above factors, the capacity utilization of these plants is 20%
or less. Effectively, this means that nearly 4 to 5 times solar capacities will be required to
generate an equivalent amount of energy as available from the coal-fired power plants. The
current level of technology in the global industry, therefore, needs further research and
development support in several of these areas.
6.2 The second prolific source of renewable energy is wind. In a number of countries all
over the world including Denmark, US, Spain, Germany, China and India, the wind energy
is being utilized extensively. The technology for this has also improved over a period of years.
With the introduction of High Mast and higher capacity turbines it is now possible to get
much larger capacity from a wind farm. In India such farms are working in Tamil Nadu,
Gujarat and Maharashtra. A number of other States, however, including Andhra Pradesh,
Karnataka, Rajasthan and Kerala have huge potentials. It is also possible to utilize the wind
energy sources from the off-shore. Globally, this utilization so far has been minimal because
of the cost of energy transmission. It is, however, possible to develop this resource and
depending on the overall capacity in an area, economic exploitation is feasible. According to
studies by Lawrence Berkley Lab, USA, the total wind potential in India is nearly one million
MW. This includes both on-shore and off-shore winds. These estimates need to be further
worked upon. It is clear that India has large potential and it may be possible to expand the
wind energy generation. There are, however, two problems associated with it. First, the
energy availability from the wind sources varies with the seasons. It also has an overall
capacity utilization potential of 20%. This effectively means that the wind energy has to be
supplemented with other forms of energy to meet the requirements of the economy on a
stable basis. Further, it also means that the equivalent energy generation will require 5 times
as much capacity as is available from power plants sources based on coal or nuclear energy.
The cost of energy generation, however, from wind energy is more competitive than the solar
energy. Off-shore winds, however, are yet to be harnessed and the cost of energy from this
source may need to be assessed.
6.3 The other form of clean energy which offers great potential is nuclear energy. After the
Fukushima disaster in Japan when large tsunami waves affected the power plant and led to
19
fears of nuclear radiation in the neighbouring areas, there has been a general consensus on
further strengthening the safety features. Most of the countries, including India, have
reassessed the safety features. Countries like Germany and Japan which have other energy
resources on which they wish to bank upon have decided to reduce nuclear energy.
However, France which has nearly 80% of power generation from nuclear energy has
continued to express its confidence in this mode. Similarly, China has also decided to
continue with nuclear energy. In US, too, the nuclear energy is being fully utilized. Given the
shortage of resources of fuel and the need for clean energy, which effectively means nonfossil fuel based energy, the need for nuclear energy is clear. India has, at this moment, less
than 2% of its total energy capacity based on nuclear energy and in generation terms it is 4%.
There are large possibilities for expansion for which areas have been identified. It is possible
to develop nuclear capacity plants of about 1700 MW capacity with the latest safety
features.
6.4 India has, in addition, the possibility of developing its thorium reserves for utilizing the
nuclear energy. At this moment, the technology available does not permit this. However,
with the development of fast breeder reactors, expected to be operational in 2013, the
potential for using thorium in the third phase of nuclear capacity development would arise.
The reserves of thorium in India are second largest in the world. In case this technology can
be developed, it may be possible, according to an estimate, to create capacities as high as
500,000 MW by 2050. In long-run this can, in the event, we need to create non-fossil fuel
based energy, a very major and important source. There is, however, also need in our country
to undertake simultaneous measures for strengthening safety and public awareness of these
power plants. For a developing nation like India if each power plant is to be accompanied by
an agitation, the country cannot move forward rapidly to meet its energy requirements.
Unfortunately, this has been the experience at several power plant sites in India.
Developing Energy Frontiers
7.1 There are new sources of energy which can come up with research and development in
the field. One of the recent developments in this area has been expansion of shale gas in US.
The global assessment is that it is possible to develop this gas across the world, including
India, China, Australia, South Africa and South America. This resource can lead to more
effective utilization of gas potential. Unfortunately, this form of gas production has also large
impact on environment due to need for fracturing of shale gas rocks through use of water.
The environmental impact has been adversely commented upon. If the country is short of
water resources, this becomes an important constraint. An assessment of resources of shale
gas has been made by number of agencies. As per the US Energy Information
Administration (EIA), the shale gas resources for four sedimentary basins of India have been
estimated at 63 trillion cubic feet (tcf). The other organizations like Schlumberger have
20
estimated shale gas reserves in the range of 600 to 2200 tcf. An exhaustive assessment of
shale gas reserves for all sedimentary basins is being carried out by Oil and Natural Gas
Corporation (ONGC). It is assumed that India may hold a good quantity of shale gas
resources given the vast coverage of both oil and coal bearing basins. These numbers need to
be further worked upon. The other area of new energy can come from fusion energy. Current
levels of research indicate that this resource may take time to develop. Unfortunately, so far
it has shown a very limited potential in India. Use of biomass for energy generation and other
resources like geo thermal energy and gas hydrates have potential too. These are, however,
areas which so far have been utilized in a limited way.
8.1 The economic development of Indian nation is very intensely linked with the energy
development. It is absolutely vital to manage energy demands and develop clean forms of
energy to make the growth process sustainable. In some areas like nuclear energy, the
research and development of third-stage can in the long-run provide an answer to the fuel
shortage. Energy researches can change the terms of the energy dialogue fast. Unfortunately,
so far very little seems to be on horizon which will do so. The best strategy for India, as a
nation and for the global community, therefore, is to reinforce energy efficiency measures
and work on sustainable energy resources for sustained economic growth.
