Over the past eleven years, India has seen a substantial transformation in its renewable energy sector, evolving from facing energy shortages to emerging as a top player in clean energy globally. Under Prime Minister Narendra Modi's leadership, the government has introduced structural reforms to expand renewable energy capacity, enhance infrastructure, and attract investments. As of mid-2025, India has installed over 232 GW of renewable energy capacity and ranks high globally in solar and wind power. The shift to competitive bidding models, government schemes like PLI, and policy consistency have played key roles in the sector's growth. The focus on decentralised energy access, offshore wind power tenders, and the National Green Hydrogen Mission highlights India's commitment to innovation in clean energy. Private and international investments in the sector have surged, and India has actively participated in global renewable energy cooperation initiatives. Domestically, electrification efforts have extended to underserved areas, and skill development programs are nurturing a workforce for the green economy. India aims to achieve 500 GW of non-fossil fuel power capacity by 2030 and has set a long-term goal of 1,800 GW by 2047. While challenges persist, the country's momentum in the renewable energy space reflects the significant impact of sustained clean energy focus. India's strides have not only transformed its own energy landscape but have also positioned it as a key player in the global energy transition.
