India’s wind power sector is entering a phase where capacity addition is increasingly being shaped by the requirements of firm and round-the-clock (RTC) power, rather than standalone renewable procurement. Hybrid, firm and despatchable renewable energy […]
At a recent industry event, Pralhad Joshi, Union Minister of New and Renewable Energy and Consumer Affairs, Food and Public Distribution, outlined the government’s vision for accelerating wind energy development alongside broader renewable energy expansion. […]
Solar energy has firmly established itself as the backbone of India’s renewable energy mix, growing from a marginal contributor a decade ago to the single largest source of clean power capacity in the country. As […]
The regional rapid transit system (RRTS), being implemented by the National Capital Region Transport Corporation (NCRTC), is a rail-based high speed, high-capacity and safe commuter service connecting regional nodes, which is expected to reduce road […]
The year 2024 was a record year for renewables in India, with the total renewable energy capacity reaching over 205 GW (as of November 2024), of which solar accounted for over 94 GW and wind […]
The year 2022-23 saw capacity addition of 16,854 MW, which was lower than the 20,330 MW added in 2021-22. Renewables accounted for 15,274 MW of capacity addition in 2022-2023, followed by thermal (1,460 MW) and […]
Mitigating climate change and decarbonising the economy have been at the centre stage… […]
Renewable energy capacity additions have dominated the country’s power sector in the past year given the growing attention to decarbonising the economy and fulfilling the commitments made at the COP26 summit, that is, to meet […]
India’s renewable energy sector is growing rapidly, with emerging opportunities in hybrids, energy storage, green hydrogen, electric vehicles (EVs) and other segments. The country’s policy and regulatory regime is also transitioning simultaneously, with adequate adjustments […]
Promoting renewable energy development, maintaining a stable and balanced power grid and ensuring a just transition of the country’s mammoth thermal power capacity to the new normal are high on the agenda of the government […]
In recent years, energy management has been a key focus area of Indian Railways (IR). It has undertaken a number of initiatives to curtail fuel costs. Energy costs (comprising diesel and electricity costs) roughly account […]
It was a transformational year for the power generation segment. In 2016-17, for the first time in the country, the capacity addition by the renewable segment was the highest across all the sources of generation. […]
The Indian renewable energy deal space is becoming increasingly active with at least one new move or plan being announced every week on an average. The relatively mature wind power segment is witnessing consolidation while […]
The past year was marked by key developments across various segments in the power sector. […]
Until now, the Indian solar market has been driven by independent power producer-led utility-scale projects. […]
