The Ministry of New and Renewable Energy (MNRE) in India celebrated a significant achievement by adding 25 GW of renewable energy capacity in the fiscal year 2024-25, marking a remarkable 35% increase from the previous year. This growth was predominantly led by the surge in Solar Power, with capacity additions soaring from 15 GW to nearly 21 GW. The country also achieved a milestone by surpassing 100 GW in installed solar capacity. Additionally, India witnessed a substantial increase in solar module manufacturing capacity, almost doubling to 74 GW, and solar PV cell manufacturing capacity tripling to 25 GW. A two GW ingot-wafer manufacturing facility commenced production, showcasing the nation's commitment to expanding renewable energy infrastructure. Notably, the production linked incentive (PLI) Scheme for high-efficiency solar PV modules attracted investments worth Rs 41,000 crore, leading to the creation of around 11,650 job opportunities. In the green hydrogen sector, India demonstrated proactive measures by offering incentives totaling Rs 2,220 crore for electrolyser manufacturing and allocating Rs 2,239 crore for green hydrogen production. The National Green Hydrogen Mission received Rs 454 crore to fund seven pilot projects aimed at decarbonizing the steel sector and Rs 208 crore to support five projects in the transport sector, facilitating the introduction of 37 hydrogen-fueled vehicles and nine hydrogen refueling stations. Furthermore, under the PM-KUSUM Scheme, significant progress was made with the installation of 4.4 lakh pumps under Component B, showcasing a 4.2-fold increase from the previous year, and solarization of 2.6 lakh pumps under Component C, a 25-fold rise. This initiative has now surpassed the milestone of 10 lakh solar pumps, with financial expenditure escalating to Rs 2,680 crore, emphasizing India's commitment to sustainable energy initiatives and the transition towards greener practices.
