Discussion
Consider the following statements in the context of the Clean Energy Ministerial (CEM) :
1. It is a global forum to promote policies and programmes that advance clean energy technology and to encourage the transition to a global clean energy economy.
2. India is a participating nation in the Clean Energy Ministerial.
3. India has denied to participate in the programme '21st Century Power' under Clean Energy Ministerial.
Which of the above statements are correct ?
Answer: C
Statements 1 and 2 are correct, so the answer is 1 and 2 only.
The Clean Energy Ministerial, launched in 2009 and first held in 2010, is a high-level global forum where energy ministers promote policies and programmes that advance clean energy technology and share lessons to speed the transition to a global clean energy economy (1). India is one of its participating members and has hosted a ministerial meeting (New Delhi, 2013) (2).
Statement 3 is false: India takes part in the CEM's initiatives, including the 21st Century Power Partnership, which works on integrating renewable power into electricity systems. So every option containing 3 is wrong.
