Reinforcing their dedication to clean energy, India and the EU pledged long-term research support for projects under the Trade and Technology Council Working Group, established in January 2023.

The adoption of the Work Plan for the 3rd Phase of the India-EU Clean Energy and Climate Partnership (2025-2028) underscores their joint focus on green hydrogen, offshore wind, regional connectivity, electricity market integration, smart grids, energy efficiency, and diplomatic efforts in these areas.

The group also welcomed the EU’s involvement in the International Solar Alliance and reaffirmed their cooperation with the International Energy Agency. They agreed to maintain close collaboration on clean energy initiatives within the G20 framework.
