Change Performance Index (CCPI) 2021
Context: India remained in the top 10 for the second year in a row in this year's Climate Change Performance Index (CCPI) 2021, occupying rank 10.
Key findings:
- It received high ratings in all CCPI categories, except renewable energy, where it had a medium performance.
- Under the renewable energy category, India performed medium and high for its current shares of renewable energy and development of renewable energy supply in the last year, respectively.
- Country experts attribute these positive developments to India's policy frameworks. They recognised the need, however, for long-term planning.
About CCPI
- The CCPI analyses and compares climate protection across 57 countries (plus EU as a whole) with the highest emissions, which together account for 90 per cent of global emissions.
- The current index analyses emissions before the coronavirus crisis and does not reflect emissions reduction during this unusual situation.
- CCPI, published by Germanwatch in cooperation with NewClimate Institute and Climate Action Network (CAN).
- Germanwatch, is a non-profit, non-governmental organization based in Bonn, Germany. It seeks to influence public policy on trade, the environment, and relations between countries in the industrialized north and underdeveloped south
