Project
Completed

India added a record 22 gigawatts (GW) of renewable energy capacity in the first half of 2025, including 18.4 GW of solar, 3.5 GW of wind, and 250 MW of bioenergy. This surge was driven by developers taking advantage of the government's Interstate Transmission System (ISTS) charge waiver, which lowers project costs. The country is progressing towards its goal of sourcing 50% of installed power cap
