India Renewable Energy Capacity Expansion

planned

India has set a target to achieve 1,800 GW of renewable energy capacity by 2047 to support its growing energy demand. The country is ramping up solar manufacturing capacity with 91 GW of solar module manufacturing registered and 25 GW of solar cell manufacturing, along with 18 GW of wind turbine manufacturing. The government aims to become a global manufacturing hub for solar modules and has set a target of 236 GWh for energy storage by 2032. Challenges such as grid integration, land, and transmission constraints need to be addressed through collaboration between central and state governments and the industry.
