WHAT IS BEHIND RENEWABLE ENERGY SURGE IN INDIA?
EPR Magazine (Electrical & Power Review)
|March 2025
Innovative solar solutions, including high-efficiency modules, energy-efficient inverters and smart grid integration, are shaping the growth of renewables.
-
The renewable energy sector of India is experiencing rapid expansion, fuelled by strong government policies, technological advancements and rising investments. With an ambitious target of achieving 500 GW of renewable energy capacity by 2035 and a net-zero goal for 2047, the solar industry is growing at an impressive annual rate of 25-30 percent. This growth is being driven by initiatives like the Production Linked Incentive (PLI) scheme, Basic Customs Duty (BCD) on imports, and the 'Make in India' programme, which is fostering domestic manufacturing and reducing reliance on foreign components.
Industry leaders analyse the transformative role of innovative solar solutions, including high-efficiency modules, energy-efficient inverters, and smart grid integration, in the country's renewable growth. Advances in bifacial panels, perovskite solar cells, and AI-powered energy management systems are enhancing performance and affordability, making solar a mainstream energy source. The strong policy framework, coupled with an increasing focus on sustainability, is attracting global and domestic investors. This momentum is not only accelerating the country's transition to clean energy but also positioning India as a global leader in renewable technology and manufacturing. By building a resilient and self-reliant solar ecosystem, the nation is paving the way for a sustainable and energy-secure future.

FY26 to attract $20-25 bn in renewable investments in India
The renewable energy sector in India has just hit a turning point. Between April and August 2025, the country added a record 20.1 gigawatts (GW) of renewable power capacity, a 123 per cent increase compared to the same period last year, when additions totalled just 9 GW. According to data from the Ministry of New and Renewable Energy (MNRE) and market observers like ICRA, this pace positions India to cross 35 GW of new capacity by the end of FY26, the highest annual addition in its clean-energy history.
