India will seek carbon emissions data linked to each cargo of liquefied natural gas (LNG), its oil minister said on Thursday, mirroring a growing trend among top Asian buyers of the cleaner fuel ahead of global climate talks in Glasgow from Sunday.
India, the world’s third-biggest emitter of greenhouse gases after China and the United States, wants to raise the share of natural gas in its energy mix to 15% by 2030 from the current about 6%, to cut its carbon footprint.
