Held comprehensive discussions on India’s unprecedented journey of energy diversification and transition under the visionary leadership of PM Sh @narendramodi Ji, in the Meeting of the Consultative Committee of MPs of Ministry of Petroleum and Natural Gas on Diversification and Energy Transition.
We discussed the transformation achieved across India’s energy landscape in the last decade, encompassing infrastructure advancement, diversification of sources, and progress towards a sustainable energy future.
I highlighted how, under the decisive leadership of PM Modi Ji, the energy sector has witnessed remarkable strengthening and expansion with retail outlets nearly doubling from 51,870 in 2014 to over 1 lakh by 2025, LPG distributors rising by 127%, and City Gas Distribution now covering the entire mainland. India today stands proud as the 4th largest refiner globally, with natural gas pipeline length increasing to 25,429 kms and LNG capacity more than doubling to 52.7 MMTPA.
Also underscored the major strides made in enhancing energy security through diversified supply chains, with crude now sourced from 40 countries, long-term LNG agreements with 15, and structured LPG contracts covering about 10 percent of imports. Equally noteworthy were the sweeping reforms in Exploration and Production that opened over 1 million square kilometers for exploration and ushered in the Revenue Sharing Model.
The Committee appreciated the strides in our energy transition strategy, achieving 19.24 percent ethanol blending, commissioning of 170 Compressed Biogas Plants, establishment of Green Hydrogen projects by PSUs, and India’s first ISCC CORSIA-certified Sustainable Aviation Fuel production by IOCL. These achievements reaffirm India’s commitment to building an affordable, sustainable, and self-reliant energy sector.
