How can India decarbonize its coal-dependent electric power system?

MIT Energy Initiative
India has pledged to reduce its carbon emissions, a difficult task as the country’s electric power system relies on many coal-burning power plants. While some of the plants are fuel-efficient (right), many more are not (left). MITEI researchers have explored and clarified India’s decarbonization options and have posted their methods and results for use by other countries in the midst of similar energy transitions.
