In a world where energy is essential for every aspect of our daily lives, it’s crucial to find ways to conserve it and ensure a sustainable future. World Energy Conservation Day, celebrated on December 14th, serves as a reminder of the importance of responsible energy usage.
World Energy Conservation Day is an annual global observance that encourages individuals, organisations, and governments to take action to reduce energy consumption and promote a more sustainable approach to energy use. This day serves as a call to action, reminding us of the limited nature of fossil fuels and the environmental consequences of their overuse.
The role of renewable energy in world energy conservation is paramount and multifaceted. Renewable energy sources play a pivotal role in addressing our planet’s growing energy demands while simultaneously reducing our environmental footprint.
As of 2020, the Indian renewable energy sector is the 4th most attractive renewable energy market in the world. The country has been ranked 4th in wind power, 5h in solar power and 4th in renewable power installed capacity. The nation has surpassed its target of installing 175 GW of renewable energy capacity by 2022, with a projected capacity of 280 GW by 2025.
By 2040, around 49% of the total electricity will be generated by renewable energy as more efficient batteries will be used to store electricity. This is likely to cut the solar energy cost by 66% compared to the current cost. In the upcoming 4 years, the country’s renewable energy sector is anticipated to attract investment worth US$ 80 billion.
The Government is actively pushing green energy and is now working on a number of large-scale sustainable power projects as part of its commitment to using more clean energy. The sector is fully backed by the attractive schemes launched by the Government. For example, it allocated ₹19,500 crore (US$ 2.57 billion) for a PLI scheme to boost the manufacturing of high-efficiency solar modules in the Union Budget 2022-23.
World Energy Conservation Day serves as a valuable reminder of our responsibility to protect our planet and secure a sustainable future.
