India is undergoing a Green Energy Revolution as part of its commitment to combat climate change and promote sustainable growth. With a rapidly growing population and economy, India faces the dual challenge of increasing energy demand while reducing carbon emissions. The government has set ambitious renewable energy targets, aiming for 500 GW of non-fossil fuel energy capacity by 2030. This includes massive investments in solar, wind, and hydroelectric power.

The country is now one of the world’s leaders in solar power, with initiatives like the National Solar Mission and the development of solar parks driving significant growth in clean energy capacity. Wind energy is also expanding rapidly, especially in coastal regions.

Additionally, India has introduced various policies, such as the Pradhan Mantri Kisan Urja Suraksha Evam Utthaan Mahabhiyan (PM-KUSUM) and Green Energy Corridors, to decentralize energy production and improve grid infrastructure, paving the way for a cleaner, greener future.

According to the Renewable Energy Statistics 2024 published by the International Renewable Energy Agency (IRENA) India ranks 5th globally in overall renewable energy generation. Specifically, India holds 4th position in Solar power energy generation.

Asia region leads with the largest expansion of 1325.94 GW in installed capacity under Renewable energy sources during 2015 to 2023.

Government Programme on New & Renewable Energy

Ministry of New & Renewable Energy (MNRE) has implemented several initiatives aimed at promoting the widespread deployment and production of renewable energy (RE) technologies. Government Key schemes to achieve the Renewable Energy:

Pradhan Mantri Kisan Urja Suraksha Evam Utthaan Mahabhiyan (PM-KUSUM): This initiative focuses on decentralizing solar power to energize agricultural pumps, providing farmers with solar-powered solutions for irrigation.
Roof Top Solar (RTS) Programme: This program encourages the installation of solar panels on rooftops of residential, commercial, and industrial buildings, promoting self-consumption of solar energy and reducing grid dependency.
Central Public Sector Undertaking (CPSU) Scheme for Grid-Connected Solar Photovoltaic (PV) Power Projects: This scheme aims to support the establishment of large-scale grid-connected solar power projects by public sector entities, enhancing India’s solar capacity.
Development of Solar Parks and Ultra Mega Solar Power Projects: The government is working on the development of large solar parks and ultra-mega solar power projects to generate substantial solar energy and reduce the cost of solar power production.
Performance Linked Incentive (PLI) Scheme for the National Programme on High-Efficiency Solar PV Modules: This scheme incentivizes domestic manufacturing of high-efficiency solar photovoltaic modules, promoting self-reliance in solar component production.
Green Energy Corridor Scheme: This initiative focuses on the construction of intra-state and inter-state transmission lines to facilitate efficient power evacuation and grid integration, enabling better distribution of solar and wind energy.

Most Important Note: It is important to highlight that renewable energy is not solely dependent on solar or wind power. A comprehensive infrastructure is essential to build a robust renewable energy ecosystem. This includes key components such as transformers, cables, mining and metals, logistics, Printing , Glass, Steel Structure, Battery , Forging. Means Company/ Industry who are the key players in niche category will see the booming growth in coming years.

Additionally, the Ministry has introduced various policies and schemes to harness the potential of other renewable energy sources, such as wind power, bioenergy, and small hydro power, to diversify and strengthen India’s renewable energy sector. These efforts are integral to the country’s goal of reducing fossil fuel dependence and promoting sustainable energy solutions.
