This book explores the multifaceted aspects of India's energy
security concerns. Bringing together a set of opinions and analysis
from experts and policymakers, it sheds light on the context of
India's energy insecurity and explores its various dimensions, its
nature and extent. Contributors examine the role that trade,
foreign and security policy should play in enhancing India's energy
security. It is argued that the key challenge for India is to
increase economic growth while at the same time keeping energy
demands low. This is especially challenging with the transition
from biomass to fossil fuels, the growth of motorized private
transport, and rising incomes, aspirations and changing lifestyles.
The book suggests that at this time there are strong arguments to
lessen the fossil fuel path dependence and it argues for a need to
engage with all the key sources of this dependence to implement a
process of energy change.
India's Energy Security is a timely contribution given the
national and international interest in the issue of energy security
and the possibility that energy concerns have the potential of
becoming the cause of serious international conflicts. It will be
of interest to academics and policy makers working in the field of
Asian Studies, Energy Policy, International Relations and Security
Studies.
