| Competition
in India’s Energy Sector |
Even though private participation and competition
in the Indian energy sector have been encouraged
since the early 1990’s, limited progress
has been observed. Issues relating to industry
structure, regulations, pricing that potentially
impact competition in the energy sector still
confront India. One needs to identify various
issues that affect competition, examine policy
interventions required to create a level playing
field in the sector, and take remedial steps accordingly.
With these objectives, the FIAS (a joint service
of the World Bank and International Finance Corporation),
the DFID, and the CCI (Competition Commission
of India) assigned TERI the task of reviewing
the competition issues in this sector. |

| Building
an energy secure future for India through a multi-stakeholder
dialogue process |
 India
is faced with a sharply rising energy demand on various
counts: large and growing population, economic growth,
and large unmet energy needs. In meeting this demand,
the country is challenged not only by supply and price
shocks in the global energy market, but also by pressures
to reduce its carbon intensity. The ongoing project
‘Building an energy secure future for India through
a multi-stakeholder dialogue process', with support
from the Nand and Jeet Khemka Foundation, seeks to examine
India’s energy concerns and arrive at an inclusive
energy security policy for the country. |
