The State Energy and Climate Index is the first index that aims to track the efforts made by states and UTs in the climate and energy sector.
Gujarat has topped NITI Aayog's State Energy and Climate Index (SECI) with a score of 50.1 points in the larger states category.
Kerala and Punjab are ranked second and third respectively. While Goa has topped the category of small states, followed by Tripura and Manipur.
According to NITI Aayog, the State Energy and Climate Index is the first index that aims to track the efforts made by states and UTs in the climate and energy sector.
It is hoped that an in-depth analysis of individual states will help in enhancing the service delivery on various parameters of energy. These parameters have been devised keeping in mind India's goals for climate change and clean energy transition.
