In Short : According to ICRA, the share of renewable energy (RE) and hydro in India’s power generation is expected to rise to 35% by FY2030, up from 21% in FY2024. This projection aligns with India’s Renewable Purchase Obligation (RPO) target, which requires significant investments to boost current renewable energy capacity. The focus will also […]
In Short : India’s renewable energy share is set to rise to 35% of its total power generation by FY2030, a significant increase from 21% in FY2024. This growth is driven by the country’s ambitious renewable energy goals, including achieving 50% of installed capacity from non-fossil fuel sources by 2030. Meeting these targets will require […]
A solar-plus-storage installation in North Carolina. More than one-third of the solar in the interconnection queues is proposed as a hybrid plant. A record amount of solar capacity and energy storage is currently in US transmission interconnection queues, according to a new study from Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory (Berkeley Lab). At 462GW, solar accounts for […]
