♦ India will implement electricity efficiency requirements of International Maritime Organization (IMO), for ships and carbon intensity necessities throughout all of its coastal or global vessels in order to help IMO in accomplishing greenhouse gasoline reduction targets. India is presently offering shore energy to vessels with energy demand of much less than 150 kW.
♦ Nationally Determined Contributions (NDC) of India below the Paris Agreement for 2021-2030 contains “cutting the emissions intensity of its gross domestic product by 33%-35% by 2030”.
