International Energy Agency says India's oil demand will be driven by diesel/gasoil requirements in contrast to the rest of the world, where EV boom will lead to lower demand.
According to the report released at the India Energy Week (IEA) 2024 in Goa, India is on track to lead an increase in oil demand of nearly 1.2 million barrels per day.
Fatih Birol said that, since India has abundant renewable energy capacity, the country should not miss the opportunity to become a superpower in the green hydrogen business.
The plunge in consumption at the world’s third-biggest crude consumer will weigh on sentiment on oil prices and damp expectations for a strong global demand rebound in the summer.
The ‘great rivalry’ angle was also blown out of proportion, given that India now holds a handsome record of wins against Pakistan in T20 World Cup matches—8-1.
This is the game every nation is now learning to play. Some are finding new allies or seeing value among nations where they’d seen marginal interest. The starkest example is India & Europe.
