India reframes its renewable revolution: The next big leap from speed to system strength for Viksit Bharat

Contributing sentiments towards policy:

66% : India continues to be one of the most attractive destinations for investment in the clean energy sector, and international interest remains high.
65% : Integration of renewables is further strengthened through the Green Energy Corridor Phase III.
64% : The Ministry of New and Renewable Energy (MNRE) underscores that India's renewable growth story remains one of the fastest and most forward-looking in the world, evolving from speed to system strength, from quantity to quality, and from expansion to enduring integration.
64% : To complement physical grid expansion, Virtual Power Purchase Agreements (VPPAs) and other market-based instruments will play a crucial role in accelerating the deployment of renewable energy.
63% : Tenders for RE power with energy storage or peak power supply now dominate auctions, signaling a move toward firm and dispatchable green power.
63% : These measures signal a shift from expansion-led growth to a more resilient, quality-driven, and system-integrated renewable energy architecture.
63% : Despite short-term delays, India remains a magnet for clean energy capital.
62% : According to the release, India's renewable energy capacity has grown more than fivefold in the last decade, from under 35 GW in 2014 to over 197 GW (excluding large hydro) today.
62% : The Government is prioritising investment in transmission infrastructure through the Green Energy Corridors and new high-capacity transmission lines from Rajasthan, Gujarat, and Ladakh.
62% : Additionally, the recent amendments to the CERC General Network Access (GNA) Regulations, 2025 have significantly improved the outlook for transmission readiness.
62% : India's next phase of clean energy growth is already taking shape: large hybrid and RTC projects are moving into execution across Rajasthan, Gujarat, and Karnataka, while offshore wind and pumped hydro storage are gaining strong momentum.
61% : After a decade of record expansion, the focus is now shifting toward creating a robust, dispatchable, and resilient clean energy architecture that can support the nation's ambitious goal of achieving 500 GW of non-fossil capacity by 2030, said the release.
61% : Distributed solar and agrovoltaic initiatives under PM Surya Ghar and PM KUSUM are deepening rural engagement, and the National Green Hydrogen Mission is linking renewable energy with industrial decarbonization.
60% : Additionally, Commercial and Industrial Consumers are likely to add nearly 6 GW of renewable energy capacity in calendar year 2025.
59% : India's clean energy transition is entering a phase where the core challenges are about integration, reliability, and scale efficiency.
58% : New Delhi [India], October 22 (ANI): India's renewable energy sector is entering a transformative new phase, one defined not merely by the pace of capacity addition, but by the strength, stability, and depth of its systems.
58% : Such mechanisms are in the process of being strategically incorporated under the Electricity (Amendment) Bill or through CERC market regulations, with enabling policy support from MNRE and MoP, to align corporate procurement, grid flexibility, and national decarbonisation targets.
57% : In the current year, Central Renewable Energy Implementing Agencies (REIAs) have issued bids for 5.6 GW, while State agencies have issued bids for 3.5 GW.
51% : India's clean energy transition is not defined by quarterly numbers but by institutional durability and stickability.
