NITI Aayog CEO Amitabh Kant on Monday stressed on the need for a clear ten-year road map to boost clean energy technologies and creating standards for innovations.
Kant also called hydrogen as fuel of the future especially for commercial vehicles which can ensure efficiency in movement across the country.
Speaking at the India Energy Forum by CERAWeek, Kant said, “We should provide 10-year roadmap on where we want to be in clean (energy) technology. We should provide policy clarity to innovation stakeholders because a lot of innovation will keep happening as we go along.”
Developing countries like India need to create standards for new technologies which sometimes become a hurdle for Indian entrepreneurs to disrupt the global market with local innovation, Kant said.
