Summary :

India is set to achieve its target of 50% total power capacity from non-fossil fuel sources by the end of 2025, according to Union Minister Manohar Lal. As of May 31, India’s installed power capacity stood at 475.59 GW, with 235.53 GW from non-fossil sources like solar, wind, hydro, and nuclear. This supports India’s Nationally Determined Contributions (NDCs) to the UNFCCC, aiming for 50% clean energy and a 45% emissions intensity reduction by 2030 from 2005 levels. The Minister stressed that renewable energy and energy storage systems are key for meeting rising power demand while ensuring grid stability. He noted that large-scale solar and wind deployment must be backed by energy storage investments to guarantee roundthe-clock power. The India Energy Storage Alliance (IESA) event attracted over 1,000 participants from 20 countries, showcasing India’s leadership in clean energy, supported by strong policies and rapid technology growth.
