The International Energy Initiative (IEI) recently awarded IIASA’s Narasimha Rao the 2011 Amulya K.N. Reddy Prize for his article, “Kerosene subsidies in India: When energy policy fails as social policy.” Rao’s research discusses the potency of subsidies targeted exclusively to kerosene-dependent urban areas in India. The IEI named it the best article accepted for publication in Energy for Sustainable Development (Elsevier) in 2011.
