Tamil Nadu Targets South Asian Renewable Energy Corridor

30 Sep 2025 CW Team

Tamil Nadu is setting its sights on creating a South Asian Renewable Energy Corridor to enable round-the-clock clean power, according to the state’s Transport and Electricity Minister S S Sivasankar.

Speaking at the 6th International Energy Conference and Exhibition in New Delhi on Tuesday, the minister said, “Together with Sri Lanka and other regional partners, Tamil Nadu stands ready to serve as the gateway for renewable energy. We can create a South Asian Renewable Energy Corridor.”

The state has announced plans to add 10,000 MW of solar and 2,000 MW of wind capacity over the next five years as part of its energy transition goals. Leveraging its strong solar potential and extensive coastline, Tamil Nadu is focusing on synergies between solar, wind, and storage to deliver reliable renewable power around the clock.

Currently, Tamil Nadu has the highest installed wind capacity in India. The state is strengthening this position by repowering older turbines, developing new hybrid wind-solar parks, and reinforcing its wind business ecosystem through India’s first Wind Repowering Policy, launched in 2024.

In addition, Tamil Nadu has been at the forefront of renewable energy policy initiatives. It is the second state in India to introduce a Pumped Storage Policy (2024) and a Small Hydel Policy (2024). An Integrated Renewable Energy Policy is also under development to accelerate the state’s clean energy transition.
