INTERNATIONAL SUPPORT FOR DOMESTIC CLIMATE POLICIES
The document identifies three primary policy areas for GHG mitigation in India's power sector: the adoption of supercritical and ultra-supercritical coal technologies, the replacement of inefficient agricultural pump sets, and the upgrade of distribution networks to High Voltage Distribution Systems (HVDS). It argues that while these options have large mitigation potential, implementation is hindered by resource constraints, poor financial health of utilities, and political challenges regarding metering. The author advocates for moving beyond the Clean Development Mechanism (CDM) toward long-term North-South cooperation to facilitate technology transfer and financing.
