The biggest threat to Indian energy sector actually is our over-dependance on conventional sources of energy like oil and coal. More efforts should be made towards research and development of alternative and renwable sources like wind, solar etc. Efforts should also be made to expand power production from the nuclear energy sector. Towards this end, the PM's deal that was signed with the US recently should be the beginning. While it's true that we have abundant resources of coal, the path to the future surely has to be paved with the alternate sources. Towards this end, there should be a minstry created at the center that will focus on these non-polluting , renewable sources.
