India Energy Week 2026 kicked off in Goa with a strong message — India is no longer just part of the global energy transition, it is shaping it.
On Day 1 of the conference, Union Petroleum and Natural Gas Minister Hardeep Singh Puri highlighted that India will drive nearly 35% of global energy demand growth over the next two decades, underlining the country’s growing influence in the global energy landscape.
The Minister outlined three key priorities guiding India’s energy transition:
Availability, Affordability and Sustainability, signalling a pragmatic and inclusive approach to the future of energy.
Technology and innovation dominated the discussions, with a key focus on repositioning natural gas — not as a bridge fuel, but as a destination fuel that supports renewable energy while ensuring grid stability.
From policy to innovation, Day 1 set the tone for a week of critical conversations shaping India’s clean and secure energy future.
