Summary/Abstract |
This paper elaborates the impact of the pursuit of energy security, focusing on the Sino-Indian quest for energy security. The geopolitical arena in which the quest has unfolded includes South, West and Central Asia - described as the energy geography - following the end of cold war in 1991 and the expansion of energy economics of China and India.

Summary/Abstract |
Eurasian Geopolitics as explained in the Heartland model has been reincarnated as Energy Geopolitics. Germany and India are the two strategic economies of the Inner Crescent of Mackinder's 'Heartland' Model and are largely similar in geopolitical focus to the rest of Eurasia. The article argues that in the coming decades at least, Russia will play an important role in these countries' energy vision. A similar unique convergence of goals regarding energy technology requirements will also be seen in the coming decades. India cannot abandon the developmental needs of its one billion plus people to the energy monopolies. Neither does Germany as a significant global economy wish to hang its globalisation efforts on similar energy uncertainties. Both countries therefore seek to spread their energy security through technology-centred geopolitical pluralism. Central Asian energy resources thus seem to be a geopolitical temptation that both nations find hard to ignore. Geopolitical contingencies, it is argued, might bring them together to explore a mixed set of options under some kaleidoscopic combination of an altogether new energy vision.

Summary/Abstract |
Energy affects almost all aspects of life and enormously contribute in economic, social and political development, which is sustainable as well. Energy, in this way, by ensuring socio-economic development augments the well-being of people and at the same time gives political leverage uplifting the country's position in the international realm. The present world is changing at a very fast rate and there is growing demand for hydrocarbon energy for the speedy development of the nations. Consequently, it can be said that the forthcoming decades will probably bring about significant modifications in the global energy scenario. Therefore, there is requirement to change the strategic orientation related to new concepts of energy and their implications.
