At India Energy Week 2026 in Goa, Minister Hardeep Singh Puri delivered insights into India’s energy renaissance. Thursday’s session saw him laud the $500 billion investment landscape and $100 billion E&P prospects as tangible realities under PM Modi’s guidance, with rapid progress underway.
Post a global CEO dialogue with the PM on January 27, Puri shared with media how these opportunities align energy security with sustainable growth and economic vitality.
A highlight was his endorsement of the EU-India Free Trade Agreement, termed the ‘mother of all trade pacts’ by European leaders. It opens zero-tariff doors for 98% of Indian exports to 27 affluent EU countries, a win-win catalyzing trade volumes and India’s international footprint.
Puri drew attention to thriving deals in ports and shelters propelling industry forward. In the face of global adversities—precession events closing routes, escalating freight due to detours, yet stable insurance—India has commendably frozen energy prices for the masses. BJP states exemplify this balance, prioritizing sustainability alongside affordability.
These developments signal India’s strategic prowess, turning challenges into opportunities for long-term resilience and prosperity.
