Which of the following statements about India's Green Energy target is/are correct? 1. ONGC Green has set a plan to achieve 10 GW of green energy capacity by 2030. 2. ONGC Green and IIM Nagpur have signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU), which aims at contributing to India's broader goal of achieving net zero emissions by 2050.

  1. A.1 only✓ Correct
  2. B.2 only
  3. C.Both 1 and 2
  4. D.Neither 1 nor 2

Explanation

ONGC Green Limited, the renewable energy arm of ONGC, has set a target of achieving 10 GW of green energy capacity by 2030, so statement 1 is correct. However, India's net zero target announced by Prime Minister Modi at COP26 in Glasgow is 2070, not 2050. Therefore statement 2 is incorrect because it misstates the year of India's net zero commitment. Hence only statement 1 is correct.
