Union Minister for New and Renewable Energy Pralhad Joshi announced India has reached a significant milestone by achieving 250 GW of non-fossil fuel electricity capacity. This capacity comprises solar (123.13 GW), wind (52.68 GW), hydro (55.22 GW), biomass (11.60 GW), and nuclear (8.78 GW) energy. The government has set an ambitious target to increase this capacity to 500 GW by 2030, in line with its Paris Agreement climate commitments. As part of promoting clean energy, the Centre has already supplied free solar power to 20 lakh households and plans to expand the benefit to 1 crore homes, especially for those lacking rooftop installations.
