The South Asia region is one of the fastest growing regions of the world in terms of energy consumption. With No South Asian economy (India, Bangladesh and Pakistan) being a major energy producing nation, Their current and forecasted dependence on international markets and domestic coal ( especially for power generation) to meet their energy requirements remains a major challenge. Therefore the project as part of the global movement to push for a complete ban on the use or extraction of fossil fuel and shift to non- fossil fuel based energy source aims to shout out loud about the need for South Asian Countries to eliminate dependence on fossil fuels (coal, oil & gas) by 2050 and ensure clean energy and energy security in the region.
The Project is supported by Stand.earth
