Japan plans to support India in accelerating the switch to clean energy, expanding a program it started last year for Southeast Asian countries, said Economy, Trade and Industry Minister Koichi Hagiuda on July 13.
Japan’s Asia Energy Transition Initiative initially aims to help countries in the Association of South East Asian Nations (ASEAN) achieve net-zero emissions. The scheme includes a $10 billion fund for renewable energy, energy efficiency, and liquefied natural gas (LNG) projects.
