  • Solar energy led the expansion, with solar parks and wind farms reducing reliance on fossil fuels and bolstering energy security.
  • Government initiatives like the Production-Linked Incentive scheme and focus on green hydrogen have spurred investments and domestic manufacturing.
  • Technological advancements, including solar tracker technology and green hydrogen production, have enhanced energy generation and market competitiveness.
India's renewable energy sector witnessed substantial growth in 2024, surpassing 200 GW of installed capacity and solidifying its position as a global clean energy leader. The country's focus on solar energy, wind power, and green hydrogen reflects a commitment to decarbonization and energy transition. Industry experts emphasize the importance of sustainable practices and policy frameworks for long-term sustainability. While challenges in project execution persist, advancements in technology like solar trackers and energy storage systems are driving efficiency and reliability. The government's support through initiatives like the Production-Linked Incentive scheme has attracted investments and boosted domestic manufacturing. However, the industry acknowledges the need for better execution practices to ensure timely delivery and quality. Technological innovations such as solar tracker technology and green hydrogen production are addressing intermittency challenges and improving project economics. Investments in renewable energy infrastructure are on the rise, indicating a positive market outlook. Looking ahead, India aims to integrate renewables with storage, advance green hydrogen technologies, and diversify the energy mix to drive sustainable growth. With the government's continued support and private sector participation, India's renewable energy sector is poised for further expansion, contributing significantly to the global shift towards a greener future.
