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.
