India Aims for 412 GW Renewables by 2030

India has unveiled an ambitious target to achieve 412 gigawatts (GW) of renewable energy capacity by the year 2030, with the objective of reducing the share of fossil fuels to 41%. The Central Electricity Authority (CEA) envisions a significant transformation in the country's energy mix, with renewables such as solar, wind, and hydro playing a pivotal role in achieving this ambitious target.

The CEA's projection aligns with India's commitment to transitioning towards a more sustainable and eco-friendly energy landscape. The emphasis on renewables reflects a strategic move to reduce dependence on fossil fuels, mitigate environmental impact, and contribute to global efforts in combating climate change.

The envisioned 412 GW from renewables by 2030 signifies a substantial increase from the current renewable energy capacity in India. The country has been actively working towards expanding its renewable energy infrastructure, and this target reinforces its dedication to accelerating the pace of renewable energy adoption.

Solar, wind, and hydro are expected to be key contributors to achieving this target. The focus on diverse renewable sources emphasises the importance of a well-rounded and balanced approach to sustainable energy generation.

As India positions itself as a renewable energy leader on the global stage, the ambitious target signals a paradigm shift in the country's energy trajectory. The proactive efforts to boost renewables align with the broader global agenda of transitioning towards cleaner and greener energy sources, creating a more sustainable future for India and the world.
