Despite the fact that the world was aware of the potential for China’s economy to grow and it was a much talked of occurrence, the speed with which this transpired caught even the most optimistic observers unprepared. India along with Brazil and Russia, like China, are the economies where this phenomenon is next likely to take place. Being the second most populace nation on earth and starting from a very low base it is considered by some observers that India will be the next country where this could occur with unbridled
rapidity. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the role of coal in India in the context of the likely evolution of the economy. Particular attention is given to the impact of the many difficulties and inefficiencies of a country that is still a largely agricultural economy with one of the lowest consumptions of energy per capita in the world. Any material change in this energy consumption will have enormous consequences for the world’s energy
