Why Energy Journalism Matters More Than Ever

Four decades of covering energy markets teaches you one thing: complexity never simplifies, it just shifts. I began as a journalist in Kolkata when energy meant keeping lights on. Two decades later, I joined ONGC for another twenty years—learning how boardroom strategies translate into operational reality. Training across India and Europe on energy transition revealed a truth: everyone’s improvising, some just do it more elegantly. Today’s energy paradoxes fascinate me. Shell invests billions in renewables while expanding oil operations. Governments promise net-zero while securing gas imports. Solar costs collapse, yet grid infrastructure requires trillions. This isn’t contradiction—it’s transformation at civilizational scale. Newscript Energy World was conceived for this momen...

ONGC JOINED HANDS WITH TATA POWER RENEWABLES TO DEVELOP BATTERY STORAGE

Tata Power Renewable Energy and Oil and Natural Gas Corporation have joined forces to develop large-scale battery storage, marking a decisive step by India’s biggest oil producer into clean energy. The agreement was signed at India Energy Week in February, as ONGC faces growing pressure to reduce dependence on fossil fuels. Chairman Arun Kumar Singh said energy storage was vital to stabilise the grid as more solar and wind capacity comes online. ONGC has set a goal of 10GW of renewable power by 2030 and pledged net zero emissions by 2038. Tata Power adds operational know-how. It runs India’s largest solar-battery plant, a 100MW facility with 120MWh of storage in Chhattisgarh. Chief executive Deepesh Nanda said the partnership would scale solutions across utilities, industrial consume...

Reliance bets big on green hydrogen with new Gujarat complex

Reliance Industries is moving ahead with construction of a green hydrogen complex in Jamnagar, Gujarat, positioning itself at the centre of India’s nascent hydrogen economy. The $10bn project, announced by chairman Mukesh Ambani, will anchor Reliance’s broader push into renewable fuels. It will integrate solar and wind capacity with electrolyser technology to produce green hydrogen at scale, with first output targeted for 2027. India has set a goal of producing 5m tonnes of green hydrogen annually by 2030 as part of its clean energy transition. Reliance intends to supply both domestic industry and export markets in Europe and Asia, where demand is growing under net-zero mandates. The Jamnagar complex will also manufacture electrolysers and advanced fuel cells. Reliance executives ...
