If India 100% Electrifies Its Transport Network, What Is The Net Change in Carbon Emissions?
Modeling transport electrification impact as a function of grid carbon intensity.
At India's current 75% coal grid, full electrification reduces national emissions by ~6%; with a fully clean grid, reduction reaches 13%.
India's Clean Electricity Trajectory: Will the 500 GW Target Be Met by 2030?
Time-series regression analysis of India's renewable capacity growth and generation outcomes.
India will reach 500 GW by 2033 (3 years late). Generation share lags significantly behind capacity due to intermittency.
The Mumbai Coastal Road Project: Examining Induced Demand of Traffic
Elasticity-based modeling of induced demand and congestion equilibrium.
Induced demand erodes MCRP's promised 67% travel time reduction to 42–58% within a decade.
Nuclear, Hydro, or Solar? A Multi-Criterion Decision Analysis of India's Clean Electricity Triarchy
AHP-WSM based MCDA of India’s clean electricity technologies.
Nuclear ranks highest across most MCDA scenarios due to superior reliability and low lifecycle emissions; hydro overtakes only in cost-first conditions.
Next Original — Coming Soon
A new analysis is in progress. ASL projects are published when the math has been tested and findings are clearly stated. Unfortunately this is a time-consuming process.

Policy-Based Remedies for Environmental Impacts of the International Container Transshipment Port, Great Nicobar
Explores the environmental impacts of the ICTP, evaluates multiple environmental policies that can mitigate these impacts. Paper settles on environmental performance bonds, adaptive management mandates, open-data platforms, and community-based environmental monitoring as strong policy remedies for mitigation.
Read ArticleEnforcement & Practicality: A Response Paper to International Principles for Best Practice EIA Follow-Up, By Marshall, Arts, and Morrison-Saunders (2012)
Summarises, examines, and responds to Marshall, Arts, and Morrison-Saunders (2012). Extension of the paper to bridge principles with reality by including societal situations, contexts, and execution methods of EIA is required.
Read ArticleSealing the Cracks: Methods for Combating EIA’s Major Problems.
India's EIA procedure suffers from corruption, public involvement concerns, and poor quality. EIA must be legislatively reinforced and practically supported through independent evaluations, strengthening of quality checks, and enforcement of accessible, transparent public involvement with opportunities for opposition.
Read ArticleEnvironmental & Social Effects of Mumbai Metro Line 3
Mumbai Metro Line 3 has several severe socio-environmental effects on the urban environment. However, the metro remains a good investment for the public, but mitigation and management measures should be carefully followed, without spare of expenses.
