India has been significantly increasing its renewable energy capacity to achieve its goal of 500 GW of non-fossil fuel capacity by 2030.

“India is one of the largest energy markets globally, and it must prioritise sustainable solutions to address climate challenges while enhancing energy security, creating jobs, and stimulating economic growth. We are optimistic about the future of India’s renewable energy sector and our expanding role in supporting its growth,” added Jain.
