Abstract
Energy is need of the hour and its demand is increasing day by day in the world. Emerging economies are demanding more energy for both industrial and financial growth. India with its ever-increasing population and rising electricity demand needs to address this. India’s automotive market is fourth-largest in the world. Rise in alertness about protecting our environment and the support for the cause by all major economies of the world through the Kyoto Protocol and Paris Agreement, United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change, the status of renewable energy has grown since it is free, clean and the most viable energy resource. As per extensive literature review, India is reported and having an enormous perspective as a superpower in terms of solar and wind energy. This paper analyses the role of government initiatives for switching from age-old petrol and diesel vehicles to electric vehicles, growth of sustainable energy and its impact on the environment. Developing countries and economics are demanding more power, putting an extra burden on fossil-based power plants to meet instant energy demand, thus increasing carbon emission.
