2Nd Japan-India Government-Private Workshop for Clean Energy and Energy Efficiency

2nd Japan-India Government-Private Workshop for Clean Energy and Energy Efficiency

Result report

Environment and Energy Division

 Background：  With the effectuation of the Paris Agreement, the international framework for climate change countermeasures, countries around the world have accelerated decarbonization efforts to achieve the 2-degree-Celsius target. At the same time, many developing countries regard this as an opportunity for their economic growth and are trying to transform from conventional energy systems through innovation and create new businesses.  In order to accelerate such market transformation, systematic promotion of 1) policies, 2) regulations, and 3) technologies is critical, and the governments and private sectors both in Japan and India should closely cooperate in designing regulations and developing innovative technology projects.

 Overview：  Based on the above background, Ministry of Economy, Trade and Industry (METI) held "2nd Japan-India Government-Private Workshop for Clean Energy and Energy Efficiency" on June 8th this year.  As India has adopted a policy to introduce large-amount of EVs and renewable energy, they have great expectations for cooperation from developed countries including Japan with policies, systems and technology. The Government and private sectors of Japan will lead the market transformation of the country, prompting early entry into this huge market. This Workshop is also one of the efforts to implement the “Japan-India Energy Transition Cooperation Plan” signed by Mr. Hiroshige Seko, Minister of Economy, Trade and Industry (METI) of Japan and H.E. Mr. Raj Kumar Singh, Minister of State for Power and New and Renewable Energy of India on May 1st this year.

Copyright (C) Mitsubishi Research Institute, Inc. 7 Topics discussed in the Workshop (1/5)：Opening  Opening Remarks: Mr. Matsumura, Director, METI  This workshop is regarded as one of the efforts to implement the “Japan-India Energy Transition Cooperation Plan”. Market transformation will be promoted through close cooperation between the governments, finance institutions and the private sectors in inducing innovation, planning legitimate policies, designing appropriate regulations and financial support. We greatly expect this workshop to be a place to find partners and to have suggestions from private companies.  Special Address: Mr. Miyake, Counsellor, Embassy of Japan  Following the first workshop last year, I am very pleased that the second workshop is held today. This workshop covers the fields of Renewable Integration and Energy Efficiency with digital technology, both of which are suitable topics for current trend in India. We are expecting concrete project implementation that will contribute to technological innovation and human resource development in both fields and technical cooperation in hydrogen utilization.  Special Address: Mr. Pankaj Batra, Member (Planning), CEA  This is my second participation following the first workshop. Later on, I will give an address on integration of renewable energy sources in India and ensuring the necessary balancing generating capacity. The workshop in which Japan-India governments and private sectors participate is very valuable and we hope that it will lead to further results.  Special Address: Mr. Abhay Bakre, Director General, BEE  Since the workshop last year, Japan-India public-private partnership and cooperation have been actively made, which is very useful for India's progress. Especially as for energy conservation, high efficiency of air conditioning is important in India where demand is growing. Successful energy transition requires learning from successful cases in other countries, and promoting clean energy sources and energy conservation from both demand and supply sides. We hope the participants will build long-term relationship each other.  Special Address: Mr. Raj Pal, Economic Advisor, MoP  In India, both demand and supply sides have made various efforts to respond to increasing energy demand. We set the goal of large scale grid integration of renewable energy sources, and BEE has established an energy conservation framework and regulations to assist the central government and state governments. The Government of India is also promoting EVs. I hope MoP, BEE and CEA will play a key role to implement suggestions given in this workshop.  Vote of thanks: Dr. Ashok Kumar, Director, BEE (controller of the workshop)  Upon holding of the workshop, I would like to thank the secretariats, MoP, BEE, CEA, METI, and MRI, and I also would like to thank Copyrightall the (C) participants Mitsubishi Research including Institute, companies Inc. and organizations that will8 give addresses and presentations today. Topics discussed in the Workshop (2/5) : Solution 1

 Solution１: On the theme of “Integration of Variable Renewable Energy and EVs into Power Systems”, a total of 10 addresses / presentations and question-and-answer sessions were conducted by the Indian and the Japanese companies.  At the beginning of the session, Mr. Batra of CEA gave an address on integration of renewable energy in India, and the challenges and technical needs that India is facing were clarified.

 Role of this workshop:  It is a place for dialogue between stakeholders of “Japan-India” x “Government-Private”, and a platform to lead to early-mover projects by sharing early-mover project examples (best practice).

 Achievements of this workshop:  From the Indian government, high-level government officials from Ministry of Power (MoP), Bureau of Energy Efficiency (BEE) and Central Electric Authority (CEA) participated and gave addresses. It showed India’s expectations for Japan as a partner, as well as the importance of a platform to encourage continued sharing of both Japan and India’s knowledge.  From the private sectors, a total of 61 companies (33 from Japan and 28 from India) including Japan-India energy industries and Japanese companies operating in India participated in the workshop and it indicates high level of interest among the market. In addition, a total of 13 presentations (6 from the Japan-side, 3 from the India-side and 4 joint presentations) were conducted, and it impressed progressing cooperative relationship between Japan and India.  A total of 129 participants, which greatly exceeded the initial expectation, gathered and held active discussions till the end of the workshop, utilizing it as a networking opportunity to collect information on presentations even during tea breaks and lunch time.  Expectation for the next step:  By increasing the number of presentations by Indian companies (e.g. Tata Power Delhi Distribution) and related private organizations (e.g. FICCI) that are expected to collaborate with Japanese companies, understanding of Indian market will be deepen and opportunities for network building will be enhanced. It is expected that it will promote creation of early-mover project, which is the purpose of this workshop.  By collaborating with international organizations such as IEA and UNIDO that participated in this workshop, it is expected to form a "ecosystem for early-mover project creation" which comprehensively provides various kinds of support required in projects and each action phase (e.g. recognition building, knowledge & know-how sharing, and capacity building such as demonstration and technical support), without limiting to support from both governments.
