Just a few years ago,
. . . India relied almost exclusively on coal to fuel its rapid development,
. . . opening new coal-burning power plants, and
. . . increasing coal mining, and imports.

This year, however,
. . . India cancelled plans for an additional 14 gigawatts of coal power, and
. . . announced that it won't build any new coal plants for at least a decade,
. . . thanks to a rapid rise in renewable energy.

India, the 3rd-largest emitter of climate pollution, seeks to lift
. . . 1.3 billion people out of poverty,
.. . while tackling climate change.
