Renewable Energy

India now assembles one in every five iPhones sold globally, cementing its position as a critical manufacturing hub in Apple’s supply chain diversification strategy. Yet, this manufacturing triumph masks an uncomfortable truth: the vast majority of Apple’s Indian suppliers are failing to embrace renewable energy, threatening the company’s ambitious 2030 clean electricity commitments. A new […]

India’s economic trajectory towards becoming a $30–35 trillion economy hinges on an unlikely hero: renewable energy. Whilst most growth projections focus on digital infrastructure, manufacturing prowess, or demographic dividends, Aryaman Birla, director of the Aditya Birla Group, argues that the renewables sector will serve as the primary engine driving this transformation. His reasoning is compelling—power

A decade ago, sceptics questioned whether India could meaningfully shift away from its coal-dependent energy infrastructure. Today, those doubts have been emphatically answered. India has crossed a historic threshold, reaching 250.64 GW of renewable energy capacity—a figure that positions the nation amongst the world’s fastest-growing clean energy markets. This isn’t merely an incremental achievement; it

Some milestones arrive quietly, marked only by bureaucratic announcements and statistical tables. Others crash through expectations with such force they demand the world’s attention. India’s renewable energy sector has just delivered the latter. The country has recorded its highest-ever annual non-fossil energy capacity addition—31.25 GW in FY 2025–26—with solar power alone contributing a staggering 24.28

When nations gathered in Paris in 2015 to chart humanity’s response to climate change, India made an ambitious pledge: achieve 50% non-fossil fuel electricity capacity by 2030. Skeptics questioned whether a rapidly developing economy could balance growth imperatives with environmental commitments. Today, those doubts have been decisively answered. India has reached this historic milestone five

Solar panels glinting across Rajasthan’s desert expanses, wind turbines spinning along Gujarat’s coastline, and battery storage facilities humming in Karnataka—India’s renewable energy landscape is being redrawn at breathtaking speed. In just the first five months of FY2026, the country added over 20 GW of clean energy capacity, a pace that would have seemed fantastical merely

There’s a moment in every nation’s development when the impossible becomes inevitable. For India, that moment arrived quietly in September 2025 when the country’s total installed power capacity breached the 500 GW mark, reaching 500.89 GW—half a terawatt of electricity generation capability. But the truly revolutionary detail lies hidden within that headline figure: more than

A Himalayan state has just solved one of renewable energy’s most vexing regulatory puzzles. On 27th November 2025, Uttarakhand became the first Indian state to formally incorporate battery energy storage systems into its renewable energy tariff framework, establishing clear technical and financial parameters that have eluded regulators nationwide. This isn’t merely administrative housekeeping—it represents a

The world’s most populous nation has just rewritten the rulebook on energy transformation. By June 2025, India achieved what many deemed impossibly ambitious—non-fossil fuel sources now constitute more than half of the country’s total installed electricity generation capacity, a milestone originally targeted for 2030 under the Paris Agreement. This isn’t merely a statistical victory or

Three hundred megawatts. Sixty turbines. Nine hundred million units of annual electricity generation. These aren’t merely statistics—they’re the opening salvo in India’s renewed wind energy offensive. Envision Energy‘s landmark order from UPC Renewables India arrives at a critical inflection point: whilst solar has dominated headlines and investment flows, wind energy—India’s original renewable champion—is staging a
