8. India could attract $4.1 trillion in green investments by 2047: CEEW
• India could attract $4.1 trillion in green investments and create 48 million full-time equivalent
(FTE) jobs by 2047, according to a new study by the Council on Energy, Environment and Water
(CEEW).
• The analysis also projects an annual green market worth $1.1 trillion by 2047, driven by 36 green
value chains across the energy transition, circular economy, and bio-economy and nature-based
solutions.
• Nearly 92% of required investments—about $3.79 trillion—would flow into the energy transition,
across renewable energy, storage, clean mobility, and green hydrogen. These sectors, while highly
capital-intensive, would create a significant share of high-skilled jobs.
• The study highlights that India’s green economy extends beyond solar and EVs to a far broader
spectrum spanning bio-based materials, agroforestry, green construction, sustainable tourism,
circular manufacturing, waste-to-value industries, and nature-based livelihoods.
• Bio-economy & nature-based solutions could unlock $415 billion in annual market value and
create 23 million jobs by 2047. Major contributors within this segment include chemical-free
agriculture and bio-inputs, agroforestry and sustainable forest management, and wetland
management.
• Circular economy could generate $132 billion in annual economic output and create 8.4 million
FTE jobs by 2047 across waste collection, recycling, repair, refurbishment, and material recovery.
Of these, 7.6 million FTE jobs would arise from waste-related activities, including roles in
collection, sorting, aggregation, recycling operations, and last-mile resource recovery.
• The CEEW study also lists significant challenges: lowering capital costs for early-stage sectors,
improving supply chains for raw and recycled materials, strengthening R&D and innovation,
building a technically skilled workforce, and establishing trusted product standards for emerging
green technologies. It states that coordinated action across ministries, state governments,
