GLOBAL SOUTH ADVISORY

RISING GLOBAL SOUTH

The world has come to be reimagined in the last two decades. Hitherto relevant mental maps have been dismantled as global geopolitics and economics first moved from bipolarity to unipolarity, then to multipolarity, and now beyond it.

This realignment has been coupled with the rise of the Global South—Africa, most of Asia, Middle East and South America—and the consequent shift in global economic power, since these nations are key drivers of global growth.

In this context, India’s rise has been phenomenal. One of the largest and fastest growing economies, India has emerged as a central actor in global affairs and geopolitics. Bullish on economic reforms, India has leveraged tech for expansive growth.

India’s strategic initiatives have positioned it as the leader of developing nations, attested to by India’s growing heft at global forums such as BRICS, the G20, and the Non-Aligned Movement. New Delhi has continued to push for South-South cooperation and has advocated for the interests of the Global South on the international stage.

Your New Energy Transition Experts

The New Energy Transition marks a fundamental shift from fossil fuel-based energy to renewable sources, aiming not just to introduce new energy options but to transform the energy foundation of today’s $100 trillion global economy.

However, current investment levels in new energy technologies fall short. To put the world on a sustainable path, energy transition investment must triple compared to 2023 levels. The International Energy Agency (IEA) forecasts that global clean energy investment in 2024 will nearly double that of fossil fuels, with total energy investment surpassing $3 trillion for the first time.

India’s commitment to achieving net-zero emissions by 2070 and meeting 50% of its electricity demand from renewable sources by 2030 marks a pivotal moment. The country’s rapid economic growth over the past two decades is phenomenal, with urban expansion adding cities the size of London each year.

Amid this backdrop, an organization's planned shift towards renewable energy faces significant challenges, particularly in policy and technology. In India, renewable energy policies vary across states, and frequent changes in tariffs and grid access policies add further complexity. Some state governments are reluctant to move away from fossil fuels due to the potential economic impact.

The ongoing energy crisis sparked by the Ukraine war has also forced governments to reassess their energy security strategies, balancing public support with the need to avoid severe economic disruptions.

Navigating these complexities and risks can be challenging. This is where Global South Advisory (GSA) steps in.
