(40% of overall score)<\/strong><\/li>\n<li><strong>Renewable Energy (20% of overall score)<\/strong><\/li>\n<li><strong>Energy Use (20% of overall score)<\/strong><\/li>\n<li><strong>Climate Policy

findings:<\/strong>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Top-Ranked Countries: Denmark remained the highest-ranked country<\/strong>, followed by <strong>Lithuania<\/strong> and <strong>Luxembourg<\/strong>.\n<ul>\n<li>The <strong>United Kingdom and Morocco<\/strong> were<strong> overtaken in the rankings.<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<li><strong>No Country Achieves \u2018Very High\u2019 Overall Rating: No country performed sufficiently well<\/strong> across all assessment categories to <strong>receive an overall \u2018Very High\u2019 rating in CCPI 2027.<\/strong>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Denmark<\/strong> retained the highest position, at <strong>4th place with 84.05 points<\/strong>, as the first three positions were left vacant.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<li><strong>Performance of G20 Countries:<\/strong>\n<ul>\n<li>The <strong>United Kingdom was the only G20 country<\/strong> to receive an<strong> overall \u2018High\u2019 rating.<\/strong><\/li>\n<li><strong>Ten G20 countries<\/strong> received the<strong> lowest overall \u2018Very Low\u2019 rating.<\/strong><\/li>\n<li><strong>Saudi Arabia (65th), Russia (66th) and the United States (67th<\/strong>) were th<strong>e lowest-ranked G20 countries.\u00a0<\/strong><\/li>\n<li><strong>G20 countries collectively<\/strong> account for over <strong>75% of global greenhouse gas emissions<\/strong>, making their climate action particularly important.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<li><strong>European Union&#8217;s Performance:<\/strong> The <strong>European Union improved by one position to rank 19th<\/strong>, retaining its<strong> \u2018Medium\u2019 rating<\/strong>.\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Nine individual EU member countries<\/strong> were<strong> classified as \u2018High\u2019 performers.<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<li><strong>Findings related to India<\/strong>:\n<ul>\n<li><strong>India&#8217;s Global Ranking Declines: India slipped five positions<\/strong> to <strong>28th place<\/strong> in CCPI 2027, scoring 60.85 points.\n<ul>\n<li><strong>It was ranked 23rd in 2026 and 10th in CCPI 2025<\/strong>, reflecting a decline of 18 positions over two years.<\/li>\n<li>However<strong>, India retained its overall \u2018Medium\u2019 performance rating.<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<li><strong>Renewable Energy Progress: India received a \u2018High\u2019 rating for its renewable energy trend,<\/strong> recognising progress in:\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Expansion of solar and wind energy.<\/strong><\/li>\n<li><strong>Rooftop solar installations.<\/strong><\/li>\n<li><strong>Electric vehicle adoption.<\/strong><\/li>\n<li><strong>Competitive procurement and incentives<\/strong> for domestic renewable energy manufacturing.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<li><strong>Achievement of Renewable Energy Target Ahead of Schedule:<\/strong> By June 2025, non-fossil fuel sources accounted for <strong>50% of India&#8217;s installed electricity capacity<\/strong>, achieving its 2030 target five years ahead of schedule.\n<ul>\n<li>However,<strong> this figure includes nuclear power and represents installed capacity,<\/strong> not the actual share of electricity generated.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<li><strong>Inadequate Grid and Storage Infrastructure:<\/strong> The report highlighted that <strong>electricity grids and energy storage infrastructure have not kept pace with the rapid expansion of renewable energy,<\/strong> affecting the effective utilisation of clean energy.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Curtailment of Solar Power:<\/strong> The report noted that<strong> India curtailed<\/strong> <strong>2.3 terawatt-hours (TWh) of solar electricity generation between late May and December 2025<\/strong> to maintain grid stability.\n<ul>\n<li>This <strong>indicates a gap between installed renewable energy capacity and actual electricity generation.<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<li><strong>Continued Dependence on Fossil Fuels:<\/strong> India&#8217;s <strong>continued reliance on coal for electricity generation and imports of crude oil, natural gas and certain types of coal remain major concerns.<\/strong>\n<ul>\n<li>The report observed that<strong> India&#8217;s 2070 Net Zero target provides long-term direction but lacks a comprehensive roadmap for transitioning away from fossil fuels.<\/strong>\n<div>\n<div><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>News: India has slipped five ranks down to 28th
