Speaking during the ADIPEC Conference inauguration thereafter, Mr Puri flagged the diverse opportunities that India offers to the world in energy sector and the prowess to provide momentum to India’s journey towards energy self-sufficiency.

He further said that while there is pressure on the economy that comprises 1.4 billion people, “one of the good unintended consequences of high energy prices has been that India has galvanized the movement towards sustainable energy sources like biogas and electric vehicles. Even in fossil fuels, we have opened up a substantial part of ‘No Go’ exploration areas for oil and gas. The energy transition would be undermined if the large hydrocarbon-consuming countries are not on board. High energy prices have consequences that flag the need to diversify the energy sources faster than we would have done otherwise,” the Minister added during ADIPEC 2022 inauguration at Abu Dhabi ADNEC.
