Our mission is to inspire and inform 203 Blackfriars Road policy and practice which lead to the reduction of poverty, the alleviation of suffering and the London, England achievement of sustainable livelihoods in developing countries. [...] The aim of the study is to enhance transparency and dialogue on energy choices in India and assist in tracking the shift in government support from fossil fuels to renewables, in line with the country’s goals of increasing access to low-carbon and energy-efficient services. [...] For example, the Clean Environment Cess on the use of coal discourages the production and consumption of coal by increasing its cost, while part of the government revenue from the cess is reallocated to support renewable energy development. [...] Inventory of Energy Subsidies in India This report presents the first inventory of all energy subsidies in India, apart from subsidies to nuclear power and large hydropower, which were excluded due to the lack of data. [...] The total values of subsidies in each of the four groupings are reported only for subsidies conferred at the level of the central government.
