Sustainable Energy: Assessing the Opportunities & Challenges for City Gas Distribution in Maharashtra

Abstract

The research examines the prospects and constraints of expanding City Gas Distribution (CGD) in Maharashtra, India, with a focus on sustainable energy. Energy consumption and environmental challenges are developing in Maharashtra, one of the most populous and industrialized states. This study seeks to determine the characteristics that make CGD expansion viable and effective for urban sustainable energy promotion.

A comprehensive evaluation of Maharashtra's CGD growth, sustainable energy, and urban development research and policy frameworks will begin the project. Data will be summarized after intensive resource study.

Energy availability, infrastructure, technological capabilities, legal frameworks, financial incentives, and market dynamics will be assessed. The study will also examine CGD expansion's environmental and socioeconomic benefits, such as lower carbon emissions, better air quality, and energy security.

This research will illuminate Maharashtra's CGD expansion prospects and constraints, with a focus on sustainable energy. The results will aid policymakers, energy planners, and industry stakeholders in creating effective strategies and policies to promote the widespread adoption of CGD, thereby facilitating the transition to cleaner and more sustainable energy practices in urban areas.
