Renewable Energy Sector in India

The renewable energy sector in India is developing rapidly; India is the 4th most desired renewable energy market across the world and the installed capacity of renewable energy exceeds 100 gigawatts.

By 2022 India could attain its target of 40%. India is among the top three nationalities globally to have the most impact on the growth of green energy sources. In the last seven years, Govt has invested more than 70 billion US$ in Solar energy and renewable energy sources. India has the third-largest solar power capability established in the world.

In recent years, across India, the role of solar and other renewable energy sources has increasingly become more prominent. The country is targeting about 450 Gigawatt (GW)* of installed renewable energy capacity by 2030 – about 280 GW (over 60%)* is expected from solar.The government with various initiatives and policies boosting the renewable energy sector in the country.

 

Future
