Сводный обзор: 
The Twelfth Plan relies on an extensive range of government programmes, which cover a wide variety of sectors, to help achieve the inclusive and sustainable growth. These include health, education, drinking water and sanitation, provision of critical infrastructure in rural and urban areas, programmes of livelihood support for the weaker sections and disadvantaged sections of our population. The broad vision of the plan is to achieve a ‘Faster, Sustainable, and More Inclusive Growth’. The Plan document outlines an ambitious agenda for policy change. As for energy this includes policies related to energy pricing, energy efficiency and technology and greater involvement of the private sector in exploration and development of primary energy sources. The Volume 1 is structured as follows: 1 Overview; 2. Macroeconomic Framework; 3. Financing the Plan; 4. Sustainable Development; 5. Water; 6. Land Issues; 7. Environment, Forestry and Wildlife; 8. Science and Technology; 9. Innovation; 10. Governance; 11. Regional Equality.

Energy access targets: 
Provide electricity to all villages and reduce AT&C (aggregate technical and commercial) losses to 20 per cent by the end of Twelfth Five Year Plan.---Electricity, gas and water supply are projected to grow at 7.3 per cent on an average compared with 6.1 per cent achieved in the Eleventh Plan.
Efficiency
EE targets: 
The targeted energy saving in the first commitment period of 3 years (2012–2015) is estimated at 10 million metric tonnes of oil equivalent (mMtoe), which will amount to 4.2 per cent energy intensity reduction over three years. Please, see Table 4.2 "Initial Estimate of Energy Consumption and Energy Reduction Targets" for details.---Provide electricity to all villages and reduce AT&C (aggregate technical and commercial) losses to 20 per cent by the end of Twelfth Five Year Plan.
EE action plans: 
During the Twelfth Plan period, the Super-Efficient Equipment Programme (SEEP) for super efficient fans, LED bulbs and tube lights, seeks to incentivize the sale of these products to increase their volumes and bring down their prices for large-scale adoption.---Energy Conservation Building Codes, formally launched in May 2007, specifies the energy performance requirements of commercial buildings in India. [...] The purpose of this code is to provide minimum requirements for the energy-efficient design and construction of buildings. The code is presently in the voluntary phase of implementation and is expected to become mandatory during the Twelfth Plan.
Renewable Energy
RE priorities: 
Promoting alternative energy options;
RE targets: 
Add 30,000 MW of renewable energy capacity in the Twelfth Plan
RE capital subsidy, grant, or rebate: 
Solar Energy Research Initiative—Support 250 doctoral-level researchers from 10 institutions.
Public investment loans or grants: 
The government should immediately classify solar power projects as ‘priority lending’ so that banks start giving it due importance in their credit plans.
Environment
Energy environmental priorities: 
Development cannot take place without additional energy and the energy requirement of development will have to be reconciled with the objective of protection of environment.---During the Twelfth Plan period, attempt will be made to create capacity at the state level, and to provide some resources to incentivise state action in the area of adaptation and mitigation.
GHG emissions reduction targets: 
Reduce emission intensity of GDP in line with the target of 20 per cent to 25 per cent reduction over 2005 levels by 2020.
Decarbonization strategy: 
During the Twelfth Plan, financing of climate change related actions will be a major challenge. Low carbon strategies will particularly require enhanced deployment of renewable and clean energy technologies, and capital finance for improvements in technology. [...] Given that energy supply and end-use technologies are evolving rapidly, policy instruments should reflect the contemporary state of technology.
Energy-water nexus: 
New policies should support the new land use arrangements, enhance investment in water harvesting, promote small-farm mechanisation and efficient water use technologies. A package of financial incentives for improved land management, including resource conservation (water, carbon, energy) [...] may facilitate quicker adoption of these measures.
Ценообразование
Energy pricing: 
Coal: a system of pricing pooling [...] should be explored and it should be implemented urgently.---The electricity tariff policy of the Government should be neutral to the type of solar technology being deployed in the approved projects.---Export subsidies (explicit and implicit) available to foreign manufacturers must be matched by tariff/domestic policy to the extent it provides a level playing field to the domestic solar manufacturers.
Carbon tax: 
With a view to generate additional resources, a cess at the rate of `50 per tonne of coal was levied in the budget of 2009. The cess has become operational and its revenue[...] will go to a newly created National Clean Energy Fund (NECF), which will be used to finance innovative projects in clean energy technologies and to harness renewable energy sources to reduce dependence on fossil fuels.
Energy Supply and Infrastructure
Infrastructure development priorities: 
The next important short-term action must be to remove the impediments to implementation of projects in infrastructure, especially in the area of energy. The following steps are especially urgent. Fuel Supply to Power Station: [...] Coal India must take steps to enhance its domestic production capability as much as possible, including by exploring possible PPP arrangements with mine development operators working on a contract basis [...].
Trade
Energy export financial incentives: 
Export subsidies (explicit and implicit) available to foreign manufacturers must be matched by tariff/domestic policy to the extent it provides a level playing field to the domestic solar manufacturers.
Предварительные решения: 
Our customs duty structure should not be inverted along solar industry’s value chain (basic and intermediate inputs should not attract higher tariffs than finished products).
Investment
Financial incentives for energy infrastructure: 
The NCEF (National Clean Energy Fund) will support projects, programmes and policies that promote clean energy technologies. This fund can be used to establish a focused investment vehicle for companies investing in green technology, and environmentally supportive businesses such as renewable energy, green transport, and water and waste management among others.---With a view to generate additional resources, a cess at the rate of `50 per tonne of coal was levied in the budget of 2009. The cess has become operational and its revenue[...] will go to a newly created National Clean Energy Fund (NECF), which will be used to finance innovative projects in clean energy technologies and to harness renewable energy sources to reduce dependence on fossil fuels.---Innovative domestic markets mechanisms are being evolved under the Perform, Achieve & Trade (PAT) Scheme that is being implemented by the Bureau of Energy Efficiency for designated industries[...]. Efforts are being made to support this scheme by creating a Partial Risk Guarantee Fund with help from the Global Environmental Facility.
