The power sector was responsible for the largest share of India's greenhouse gas emissions in 2022, at roughly 32 percent (excluding LULUCF). More than 95 percent of India's power sector emissions are produced by coal-fired power plants - the country's primary source of electricity generation. The second-largest contributor to greenhouse gas emissions in India is the country's important agriculture sector.
