Sep-22-2020

In the wake of the ongoing COVID-19 crisis, International Energy Agency (IEA) in collaboration with NITI Aayog has launched a ‘Special Report on Sustainable Recovery’. The report proposed a number of actions that could be taken over the next three years to revitalize economies and boost employment while making energy systems cleaner and more resilient.

The report also mentioned key sectors for creating jobs: electricity, transportation, buildings, industry and sustainable biofuels and innovations. A combination of policy actions and targeted investments will offer huge benefits to the economy and generate jobs. However, the measures highlighted in the report remains the sovereign choice of the country.

As governments around the world respond to COVID-19, the IEA’s report, prepared in cooperation with IMF, details energy-focused policies and investments that could help boost economic growth, create jobs and put emissions into structural decline while making energy systems lower-cost, secure and resilient.
