The Centre for Policy Research, Prayas (Energy Group), and the Oxford India Centre for Sustainable Development, University of Oxford have been holding annual roundtable discussions on India’s residential electricity consumption for the last three years. These discussions aim to provide a forum for researchers and practitioners working on residential electricity demand to substantively share recently completed and on-going work as well as discuss challenges and future directions. Like last year, we will hold this event online. The detailed agenda for this two-day event can be accessed here.
