India's future as a country stands seriously threatened if its energy crisis is not resolved at the earliest. At Shakti Sustainable Energy Foundation, we work to address this situation by aiding the design and implementation of policies that support the efficient use of existing resources as well as the development of cleaner alternatives. Shakti is also a part of an association of technical and policy experts called the ClimateWorks Network. Being a part of this group helps Shakti connect the policy space in India to the rich knowledge pool that resides within this network.
