World Resources Institute is an independent global research organisation working to improve people’s lives, protect nature and stabilise the climate. Its energy practice addresses clean-energy supply, decarbonised consumption, energy access, equity, critical minerals and the financial and governance systems shaping the transition. In India, WRI combines data, policy research and stakeholder engagement to examine renewable-energy markets, city-level energy transitions, electricity-market reform, industrial decarbonisation and the material requirements of batteries and energy-storage systems.

WRI’s participation strengthens the Bharat Renewable Energy Summit by bringing an independent, evidence-led perspective to complex policy and implementation questions. Its work demonstrates that the energy transition must involve states, cities, utilities, industries, communities and financial institutions rather than remain confined to central targets or large projects. By connecting global research with Indian realities, WRI can help the Summit explore market reform, urban clean-energy action, critical-mineral security and an equitable transition, ensuring that renewable-energy growth produces durable benefits for the economy, society and the environment.
