The Brookings Foreign Policy Studies Energy Security Series: India—Executive Summary 1 Now at a critical juncture, India’s policymakers are increasingly aware of the need for an effective and diversified energy strategy—or at least an integrated set of policies to bal- ance foreign policy, economic, environmental, and social issues with the rising demand for energy. While there is little consensus over how best to proceed, there is no doubt To date, India has that India’s need for oil and other forms of energy will continue to grow. Meeting this need will have a decisive impact on the country’s actions not just in the energy sector, but developed a cluster in its efforts to achieve its broader strategic goals at home and abroad. of energy policies This monograph focuses on India’s need for oil and how this demand fits within its broader set of energy policies. The paper is divided into three sections. Part 1 surveys the rather than country’s overall energy demand-supply situation, the “energy security” debate in the country, and the issues, actors, processes, and politics involved in energy policy and deci- an overarching sionmaking. Part 2 focuses on India’s search for oil, including its supply-side policies, such as efforts toward domestic E&P, acquisition of upstream assets abroad, supply and energy strategy. fuel diversification, and the development of strategic oil stocks. It also examines India’s demand-side policies, including regulatory, price and tax reform, fuel conservation, and efficiency measures. The concluding section offers observations about India’s likely actions in the energy sector at home and abroad and suggests further areas for research. A number of key findings result: ■ India is likely to continue to have a set of separate energy policies formulated by dif- ferent entities rather than an overarching energy strategy. Integration of these poli- cies will likely improve over time. ■ Reform of India’s energy sector will continue—but at a slow pace. Implementing policies will be harder than formulating them. ■ Unless there is a non-BJP or non-Congress-led government at the center, India will continue to encourage private participation in its energy sector, as much out of neces- sity as out of choice. he Brookings Institution is a pri- Tvate nonprofit organization devot- ■ India’s energy-related actions in the global arena will reflect its current foreign policy ed to independent research and inno- path of “enlightened self-interest” and maintaining diverse options.

As a consequence, its country-by-country energy diplomacy and purchase of overseas assets will continue. However, its energy interests are not likely to trump the country’s larger strategic goals. ■ India’s energy interests are also likely to factor into its military strategy and behavior in the future. For example, India might be willing to take on a greater share of the international security burden related to protecting oil and gas supply lines.

  • India: Inventory of Estimated Budgetary Support and Tax Expenditures for Fossil-Fuels
    INDIA: INVENTORY OF ESTIMATED BUDGETARY SUPPORT AND TAX EXPENDITURES FOR FOSSIL-FUELS Energy resources and market structure India is one of the fastest growing energy markets in the world. The country is the world’s third largest coal producer owing to its large deposits. Coal is the leading primary fuel in India’s energy mix, accounting for 44% of the country’s total primary energy supply (TPES), with thermal power plants making up the majority of coal consumption. Biomass accounts for 25% of total energy use, followed by oil and natural gas, which account respectively for 22% and 7% of the country’s energy needs. Remaining energy sources, such as nuclear power and hydro-electricity, account for about 1% each. The country’s proven reserves of oil were 5.5 billion barrels as of December 2012; nonetheless, domestic production falls far short of domestic demand and the country depends heavily on imported crude oil. The state-owned coal company, Coal India Limited (CIL), retains a near monopoly of coal extraction, with over 90% of domestic coal extraction attributed to government-controlled mines. Most coal mining occurs in the states of Bihar, Chhattisgarh, Jharkhand, Madhya Pradesh, Orissa, and West Bengal. Market reforms are being implemented to bring competition and transparency to the coal sector. The government has been grappling to get an effective regulatory framework in place, which includes the loosening of regulations for the coal industry, with the objective of moving some grades of coal closer to international market prices, and allocating additional coal blocks through a transparent open bidding process.

    Joint Statement on the occasion of the 7th India-Japan Energy Dialogue between the Planning Commission of India and the Ministry of Economy, Trade and Industry of Japan 1. H.E. Mr. Montek Singh Ahluwalia, Deputy Chairman of the Planning Commission of India and H.E. Mr. Toshimitsu Motegi, Minister of Economy, Trade and Industry of Japan held the 7th meeting of the India-Japan Energy Dialogue on September 12, 2013 in New Delhi. 2. Senior officials of the relevant ministries and departments of both sides participated in the discussions. Both sides welcomed the progress achieved so far in the previous six rounds of the Energy Dialogue and in the deliberations of the various Working Groups. They appreciated the sector-specific discussions by experts of both sides and the progress made in various areas of cooperation. 3. During the dialogue, both sides recognized that it is important to hold the India-Japan Energy Dialogues annually, and that the issues of energy security and global environment are high priority challenges requiring continuous and effective action. In particular, to overcome challenges such as the global-scale changes in the energy demand structure seen in recent years and soaring energy prices, both sides confirmed to strengthen consumer-producer dialogue on LNG and deepen cooperation in energy conservation and renewable energy sectors. In addition, both sides decided to strengthen programs to further disseminate and expand model business projects that have thus far been implemented by both sides, and to enhance cooperation in upstream development of petroleum and natural gas. 4. Both sides recognized the need to promote industrial cooperation to expand bilateral energy cooperation on a commercial basis, based on the Joint Statement issued at the 6th India-Japan Energy Dialogue.

  • Public Policy
    Public Policy View Political Science Department website Public policy decisions touch nearly every aspect of daily life, although we often fail to recognize or understand their impact. Daily, we are exposed to the policy proposals and preferences of those in or seeking office and they are in turn influenced by the preferences of the public and the pressures of organized interest groups. Given the impact that policy choices can have on our lives, it is essential that we have an understanding of how policy choices are made and how we might evaluate those choices. Why do we need this knowledge? Policymakers are more responsive to the demands and interests of an active and informed public. The purpose of the public policy major is to equip students with sufficient competence in analytical skills supported by social science theory to prepare them for graduate or professional study. Majors should be sufficiently prepared to seek positions in organizations which deal with public policy issues: business firms, trade associations, lobbying organizations, and government agencies. The major provides students with the factual, analytical, practical, and theoretical skills necessary for contemporary policy design, implementation, and evaluation. Public policy is interdisciplinary in nature; it is affected by social and economic conditions; political as well as cultural values; and the structure of government. The study of public policy requires the integration of knowledge from multiple disciplines to understand and critically assess public problems and potential solutions. The public policy major draws upon the knowledge and experience usually available through separate majors such as anthropology, economics, sociology, and political science.
