Abstract

Energy security plays a crucial role in any economy. For a developing country like India with rapidly increasing demand for energy it takes a multi-dimensional role with its economic, social and environmental facets to the issue. In this article we examine the status of energy security in India and the government and corporate response to this crisis and ends with an appeal to corporates to play a larger role in changing the narrative on energy.
