India achieves 50% non-fossil fuel power capacity, 5 years ahead of target
India has made a significant leap in its clean energy transition, achieving 50 per cent non-fossil fuel-based power generation capacity, five years ahead of its ambitious 2030 target under the Nationally Determined Contribution (NDCs). Union New & Renewable Energy Minister Pralhad Joshi announced this achievement on Monday, highlighting the nation's accelerated progress towards a sustainable energy future. Minister Joshi took the social media platform X and said, "Under the visionary leadership of Prime Minister Narendra Modi, a major climate commitment has been fulfilled.' India's total installed power capacity currently stands at 484.8 GW, with 242.8 GW now sourced from non-fossil fuels. This is particularly significant given India's international commitments to increase its non-fossil fuel-based power generation and its ambitious national target of establishing 500 GW of renewable energy-based electricity generation by 2030. Over the years, the government has launched a number of flagship programmes such as PM-KUSUM, PM Surya Ghar: Muft Bijli Yojana, solar park development, and the National Wind-Solar Hybrid Policy , which have laid a strong foundation for this transformation.
