Cutting emissions by capturing methane from coal mines and substituting it for imported gas could save India up to £741m

Indias coal mining methane emissions could rise by 106% by 2029, driven by increased coal production to meet energy demands, warns Ember report.

India's plans to expand coal mining could double emissions of the potent greenhouse gas methane from its domestic coal sector by 2029, threatening its climate goals, a report warned Thursday.The planned expansions could more than double coal mine-related methane emissions by 2029 from a decade earlier,

India has an opportunity to curb coal mine methane emissions and achieve economic gains. Ember's analysis indicates that with effective mitigation strategies, India could reduce these emissions by up to 35% annually by 2030.
