Author : Dr. Kamaxi and Dr. Basavaraja Malipatil

Abstract

India, a global trailblazer in sustainable energy solutions, strategically adopts renewables to address surging energy demands. As of December 31, 2022, the nation showcases significant achievements across solar (63.3 GW), wind (41.93 GW), bioenergy (10.73 GW), and small hydro (4.94 GW). Innovative projects contribute 11.06 GW, forming a robust pipeline of 218.1 GW. Large hydro adds 46.85 GW, resulting in a total renewable capacity of 167.75 GW. Diverse solar potential is evident across states like Jammu & Kashmir and Rajasthan. Wind power installations in Gujarat and Tamil Nadu underscore regional commitments. The consistent growth in wind energy generation, reaching 59,532 MU in 2022-23, emphasizes the efficacy of wind projects. With over 5 million small biogas plants installed nationwide, the New National Biogas and Organic Manure Programme reflects India's commitment to sustainable waste management, positioning the country as a key global player in the renewable energy transition.
