인도의 신ㆍ재생에너지 시장 및 정책 분석과 한-인도 협력 방안(Analysis of India’s New and Renewable Energy Market and Policies and Implications for Korea-India Cooperation)

최근 인도 신‧재생에너지 시장이 급속히 성장하고 있으며, 미국, 일본, EU, 중국 등 주요국의 진출과 협력이 본격화되고 있다. 본 연구는 상대적으로 정체된 한-인도 신‧재생에너지 협력을 위한 정책 과제 도출을 목적으로 추진되었으며, 이를 위하여 인도 신‧재생에너지 시장 구조, 관련 정책 및 제도, 주요국의 협력전략, 민간 부문의 협력 수요 및 정책 수요를 분석하였다. 본 연구는 한-인도 신‧재생에너지 협력을 확대하기 위하여 한-인도 에너지 대화 설립, 한-인도 기후변화 협력 협정 체결, 한-인도 신‧재생에너지 시범사업, 해외 진출을 위한 국내 기업 경쟁력 강화의 정책 과제를 제안한다. The importance of new and renewable energy has been a prominent issue since the Paris climate agreement in 2015. The Paris Agreement aims to keep the average temperature rise below2°C compared to before industrialization, and to limit the future temperature rise to 1.5°C or less. The main responses to the Paris climate agreement are centered on the active use of eco-friendly energy such as new and renewable energy and policies to supportthe ecosystem of low-carbon industries. Responding to the global green movement, the Korean government declared carbon neutrality in 2020 and announced policy plans to create a low-carbon ecosystem. However, the small size of the domestic renewable energy market is making it difficult to mass-produce renewable power generation plants. Also, as the international community’stransition to a low-carbon ecosystem is rapidly taking place, Korea needs to actively meet its Nationally Determined Contributions (NDCs) through various overseas cooperation projects if it is to achieve carbon neutrality by 2050. Therefore, it is clear that energy cooperation with developing countries will be needed to explore new markets and secure NDCs through overseas expansion.Considering India’s recent expansion of the renewable energy market and its active policy supports, India is likely to grow into a major partner for Korea in the renewable energy sector. India is currently active in expanding new and renewable energy to solveits domestic air pollution issue, and the demand for renewable energy is expected to grow in the long term. Currently, India’srenewable energy market is a major market on the global level. Specifically, the volume of India’s renewable energy production is second in the world, right after China. Therefore, in light of the growing importance of renewable energy and NDC needs, research on India’s renewable energy market is necessary. This study aims to produce a report on India’s renewable energy market and policy implications for Korea-Indiacooperation in renewable energy sector through analysis of India’s energy and renewable energy market, renewable energy policies and systems, and firm-level cases.(the rest omitted)
