India always faces a Hobson's choice as far as feeding coal-fired generators goes - even if the government is reluctant to admit it.

A cursory look at the balance sheet of India's climate progress since November reveals ponderous progress towards meeting the renewables target even as the country is scrambling to expand coal-fired generation in the face of a power crisis.
