Energy access, energy security, and energy transition are vital both at the global and national levels. This necessitates the availability of robust, consistent, and reliable energy data, which can help in understanding the energy profile of a country. Furthermore, it aids in assessing the impact of various policies and programs. In the current era, where energy transition holds high priority, having robust energy data can assist policymakers in formulating data-backed policies that support countries in achieving their environmental and developmental commitments in the coming years.
