Notes:
Concentration of greenhouse gases in the atmosphere is steadily increasing leading to global warming. India is expected to be one of the major contributors to Green House Gases (GHGs) due to increased share of thermal power generation, which is a major contributor to carbon dioxide (CO2) emission. One way to limit these emissions is by implementing some economic instruments like carbon tax or energy tax. This study has been carried out to analyze the impact of carbon tax on the complete Indian power sector network. An Integrated Resource Planning and Analysis (IRPA) model and CPLEX software has been used to carry out the present study.
