How India scripted its renewables growth story
Hindustan Times Chandigarh
|February 21, 2026
In 2024, Nirmal Das Swami, a farmer in Rajasthan, began harvesting the power of the sun.
Nirmal installed a one-megawatt solar park on his land, enough to power his entire community. With access to steady, affordable, and clean energy, Nirmal's income grew. Nirmal is part of a larger transformation happening in India. Boosted by the increasing economic viability of renewables, India is outpacing other major developing countries in scaling cost-effective clean energy. Itis set to add more renewables to its grid than the US thisyear. Non-fossil fuel sources now account for 50% of its installed capacity.India’s progress here is a result of three key factors — the government's big bet on universal energy access, a willingness to experiment, and strong public-private-philanthropic partnerships.

Since 2000, CAPTCHA has been the trusty internet gatekeeper, evolving from distorted text to image grids, audio prompts, mini games. Over the past decade, this test has been slipping into the background. Take a look at how we created a form of invisible surveillance, who gets left out at the gate, and how we're inadvertently teaching the machine to see and think like us
