India’s power sector emissions from fossil fuels have surpassed Europe’s due to the increased use of high-polluting coal. Europe has seen a reduction in coal and natural gas use and an increase in renewable energy generation, resulting in a decrease in power emissions. However, India’s reliance on coal for electricity generation has led to a 4.5% increase in power emissions. If these trends continue, India’s emissions will consistently exceed Europe’s, making it a leading global source of climate-warming pollution.
