Given its vast solar potential, Rajasthan is well-positioned to benefit from the clean energy transition. Unlike coal-mining regions, it is not weighed down by the immense challenges of phasing out fossil fuels and stands to gain from new opportunities created by clean energy investments. However, the state has significant public and private investments in thermal power generation. 

The energy transition presents complex challenges due to spatial differences in thermal and renewable energy infrastructure, deep multi-dimensional vulnerabilities of contractual and informal workers, and broader macroeconomic conditions.

CEEP's research and advocacy prioritises transition resilience for impacted workers and communities. It focuses on building appropriate safeguards and fostering an inclusive policy response to mitigate socio-economic transition risks.
