India's remarkable economic progress has set the stage for a transition into a global manufacturing hub, emphasizing the need for increased non-fossil fuel electricity capacity. With the goal of achieving 500 GW by 2030, the country is focusing on renewable energy sources, especially solar and wind power. Key government policies promote domestic manufacturing of solar modules and electrolyzers, while encouraging specific types of electricity generation. Initiatives like the green energy corridor in Ladakh and viability gap funding for offshore wind projects showcase a holistic approach towards renewable energy integration. The government's investments in the Production Linked Incentive (PLI) scheme and the Strategic Interventions for Green Hydrogen Transition (SIGHT) Program highlight a commitment to energy self-sufficiency and job creation. Furthermore, schemes like PM-KUSUM and PM Surya Ghar Muft Bijli Yojna aim to promote distributed solar generation in rural and urban areas, reducing reliance on diesel and equipping homes with solar panels. India's renewable energy transformation not only ensures energy security but also paves the way for a sustainable and greener future.
