This report delves into the implications of regional energy trade on increasing the proportion of renewable energy consumption within the overall energy usage or the shift away from fossil fuel-centric economies in South Asia. The study employs data from seven nations, employing the Global Trade Analysis Project (GTAP) model to evaluate the consequences on economic growth and societal well-being within these analysed countries.
In an era of growing urbanization and the escalating challenges posed by climate change, cities worldwide are seeking innovative solutions to mitigate climate-related risks while simultaneously enhancing the well-being of their citizens. This ambitious project aims to customize the SSC's analytical engine, designed for cost-benefit analysis, to cater specifically to the unique needs of the city of Bhopal.
