At the recent India Energy Week 2024 in Goa, leaders and enthusiasts in the energy field came together to talk about how India is moving towards more sustainable and efficient energy practices. This event is a big deal—it's the third largest in the world for oil and gas industries, and over 4,000 people from 100 countries attended. ES Ranganathan, a well-known figure in India's energy scene and former head of IGL, was there too. He shared some important insights about what went down at the event.
One big topic at the India Energy Week was the need to switch to renewable energy sources. With climate change being such a big issue, people talked a lot about how important it is to use more solar, wind, and hydroelectric power to cut down on carbon emissions and protect the environment. Ranganathan pointed out that India is setting ambitious goals in this area and making good progress.
Another thing people talked about was how technology can help shape the future of energy. They discussed using things like artificial intelligence, blockchain, and the Internet of Things to make energy production, distribution, and use more efficient and sustainable. Ranganathan emphasized how important it is for the industry to embrace these new technologies.
