Wind segment to enhance energy security
The revised renewable target for 2022 is 227 GW, including 67 GW. We welcome this move as it will also enable India’s energy security and transition to a low-carbon economy. It is also a testament of the government’s confidence in the sector to deliver the targets

Gearing up for 80 GW and beyond
Wind dominates the renewable energy (RE) segment with an installed capacity of over 34,000 MW. The segment, which was once the leader in RE, may lose its sheen as grid-connected solar energy may take over wind in the coming years

Facing headwinds
The wind power sector is going through a transformation with the entry of competitive bidding process. Though it could keep up the pace as of now, analysts say, it will slow down going ahead.

Solar shines!
The Union Budget is full of sops for solar - in terms of investment, village electrification and taxes. But, it calls for building renewable power compatible T&D infrastructure on a war footing.

Technology and innovation will continue to be the catalyst
Aligned with the´Make in India´ initiative and the government´s green commitments, we aim to install 20 GW in the next six years. This is more than our installations till date but, is well within reach. We have established a multi-prolonged strategy that covers R&D, manufacturing and design as we endeavour to meet our goals.

The Long Shot
Wind energy has been identified as a potential response to India´s crucial power challenges since the 1990s. The sector has undergone a major shift in India, and even after a good 25 years, we still await the full potential of this renewable source to be realised.
