India achieves Non-Fossil targets Nine Years ahead, says PM Modi

Highlighting India's remarkable climate commitments, Prime Minister Narendra Modi proudly announced the country's leadership in climate action during a video message to the G20 Energy Ministerial Meeting in Goa. India has already achieved its non-fossil installed electric capacity target nine years ahead of schedule, showcasing its dedication to green growth and energy transition.

PM Modi emphasised the vital role of energy in shaping the future, sustainability, and development of individuals and nations. India stands among the global leaders in solar and wind power, firmly committed to its climate goals despite being the most populated nation and the fastest-growing large economy in the world. The country now sets its sights even higher, aiming to achieve 50 per cent non-fossil installed capacity by 2030.

The G20 Energy Ministerial meeting, chaired by Union Minister for Power and New and Renewable Energy, R K Singh, brought together ministers from G20 countries. PM Modi urged the G20 to lead the way in ensuring a sustainable, just, affordable, inclusive, and clean energy transition, taking care not to leave the Global South behind.

The Prime Minister emphasised the achievements of India's energy initiatives, including providing LPG connections to over 119 million families in the last nine years and connecting every village to electricity. India's domestic electrical market is projected to reach 10 million annual sales by 2030. Additionally, the country has taken significant steps in the adoption of renewable energy sources, such as launching a large-scale LED distribution program, saving billions of units of energy annually.

Looking to the future, India is working diligently on green hydrogen as an alternative, with the aim of becoming a global hub for its production, use, and export. Decarbonisation remains a priority for India, and the country is actively working on advancing green hydrogen technology.

During the meeting, PM Modi called for low-cost finance for developing countries, bridging technology gaps, promoting energy security, and diversifying supply chains. The Energy Ministerial meeting also witnessed the launch of the Green Hydrogen Innovation Centre and the Global Biofuel Alliance, further underlining India's commitment to clean energy initiatives.

The G20 Energy Ministerial Meeting followed a two-day 4th Energy Transition Working Group meeting held in Goa, demonstrating India's dedication to global cooperation in combating climate change and advancing sustainable energy practices.
