To be the most effective Member Committee truly representative of Indian Energy Sector and contributing to furtherance of energy goals of the country

How is the World Energy Council-Indian Member Committee (WEC-IMC) different from other energy organizations? And why is it important to be a member of WEC?

• Established in 1923, the World Energy Council is a global, non-profit, multi-energy organization which covers all forms of energy (coal, oil, natural gas, nuclear, hydro, new renewables ) and has national member committees in 95 countries around the world. So you get associated with an organization with a credibility of more than 8 decades and a network of largest energy producing and consuming countries
  
  
• WEC-IMC has the unique distinction of being the only NGO that enjoys the complete support of all Energy Sector Ministries
  
  
• WEC-IMC is different from single-sector energy organizations because it offers a “helicopter view”, an over-arching, cross-sector perspective to help business make realistic decisions and understand how those decisions fit into the overall energy context and the political, social, environmental and economic framework of the world today.
  
  
• WEC-IMC is different from local, national and regional energy organizations because the international dimension WEC provides adds a vital layer of global information and insight that can be invaluable to decision-makers in the energy business and can help companies, government and organizations make wise decisions today that will have positive impacts for the future.
  
  
• By joining the Indian Member Committee energy companies gain greater visibility in the community, resulting in more knowledge of the local energy industry and government and a reliable local/national network of contacts that can be helpful in leveraging and developing new business opportunities.
  
  
• WEC-IMC offers its members a unique opportunity to help shape the energy future through open dialogue and discussion with the most important players in the energy sector.
  
  
• Through WEC’s global network, members are nominated to various WEC global studies and task forces and can participate in the international energy debate and contribute to finding solutions to important global issues such as climate change, international energy governance, energy efficiency, investment in infrastructure and energy poverty.
  
  
• Through WEC’s & IMC’s studies & policy advocacy, members can help foster more coherent national regional and global energy policies and more effective regulation and standards.
  
  
• Members have free and open access not only to all of WEC’s studies, reports, technical work and regional reports but also to a wide variety of services and information available from and through WEC’s London based headquarter.
