Israel-Iran Conflict A ‘Huge Opportunity’ For India: Amitabh Kant Pushes Energy Independence

Amitabh Kant, former CEO of NITI Aayog, says tensions involving Iran highlight both risks and opportunities for India. India imports about $240 billion worth of fossil fuels, making it vulnerable to rising oil prices, with a $10 increase adding nearly $15 billion to the import bill. He argues this underscores the urgency of accelerating the shift to renewable energy to reduce dependence on imported fuels and strengthen energy security. Erik Solheim, former Environment Minister of Norway, adds that India is well positioned to become a major exporter of clean energy. He emphasizes simplifying bureaucratic processes, engaging local communities, and using land effectively for solar and wind projects to boost energy independence and reduce exposure to global market volatility. #amitabhkant #eriksolheim #iranconflict #indiaenergy #renewableenergyindia #cleanenergy #solarpowerindia —————————————————————————————————————————— TOI Bharat – Your Window to India And Its Neighbourhood TOI Bharat delivers the latest news, biggest voices, sharpest views and in-depth coverage of India’s political, social and economic landscape.
