With the energy sector poised for major changes, Kerala has decided to draft a comprehensive energy policy to cater to the State’s long-term needs.
The proposed policy will act as an umbrella document focussing on meeting future energy requirements and tapping emerging energy sources, says K R. Jyothilal, Additional Chief Secretary (Power).
The policy is expected to serve as a guide for Kerala which aims to turn into a 100% renewable energy-based State by 2040 and net carbon neutral by 2050.
