The Hindu Interpreting India’s climate budget for 2026–27: Big promises, cautious steps
In this episode of The Climate Economy, we break down what India’s Union Budget 2026–27 really means for the country’s climate and energy transition. From the ₹20,000 crore Carbon Capture, Utilisation and Storage (CCUS) mission to the massive scaling up of rooftop solar under PM Surya Ghar Muft Bijli Yojana, the Budget signals ambitious intent but also cautious execution. We analyse spending on decentralised solar, grid-scale solar and land conflicts, PM-KUSUM for agriculture, nuclear energy push, green hydrogen challenges, and adaptation funding.
