If you add 8,180 MW of nuclear capacity to this, the country’s total non-fossil fuel-based power capacity stands at 46.3 per cent of the total installed electricity generation capacity. Rajasthan (31.5 GW), Gujarat (28.3 GW), Tamil Nadu (23.7 GW) and Karnataka (22.3 GW), are the top four states in renewable energy capacity, according to data provided by the Central Electricity Authority. Module prices have more than halved since early 2023, the agency says in its latest report on the renewable energy sector. RE projects hurt by grid-acheRenewable energy projects globally are increasing but not quite on the trajectory to meet the ambition of “tripling of global renewable energy capacity by 2030” — from 2022. The IEA report on renewable energy finds that current trends would take the global capacity to 9,760 GW, or 2.7 times increase from 2022.
