India’s power sector CO2 emissions fall for only 2nd time in 50 years: Study
New Delhi: India’s carbon dioxide emissions from the power sector fell by 1 per cent year-on-year in the first half of 2025 and by 0.2 per cent over the past 12 months, only the second decline in nearly five decades, a new analysis showed on Thursday.
The study, conducted by the Centre for Research on Energy and Clean Air (CREA) for UK-based Carbon Brief, said India has contributed nearly two-fifths of the global energy sector emissions growth since 2019.
