In this episode of Energonomics, host Richa Mishra speaks with Sunil Mani, Policy Advisor at IISD, about a new report on India’s clean‑cooking transition. They explore why decentralised biogas and electric cooking though clean and cost‑effective still struggle to scale, and what financial, policy, and service‑delivery reforms are needed.

Richa and Sunil also discuss the affordability barriers, state‑level challenges, maintenance gaps, and how India can diversify beyond LPG to build resilient, indigenous clean‑cooking systems. A crisp, insightful explainer on the future of clean energy for Indian households.
