The country's renewable energy expansion boosts significant demand for advanced electrical equipment, necessitating smart grids, sensors, energy storage, and robust grid management systems. Digital technologies like IoT, AI and predictive maintenance are transforming grid operations by enhancing efficiency, reliability and resilience. The Production Linked Incentive (PLI) scheme further accelerates domestic manufacturing of critical components, reducing import dependency and promoting technological innovation. However, integrating 500 GW of non-fossil fuel energy by 2030 presents challenges, including manufacturing scale, supply chain limitations, grid stability and regulatory complexities. Addressing these challenges through collaboration, investment, and innovation is essential for the country's successful energy transition.

How is renewable energy adoption driving demand for advanced electrical equipment, and how are digital technologies enhancing grid modernisation?
