India's Energy Shift: Coal Decline, Renewables Surge
Update: 2025-12-02
Description
Indias electricity generation experienced a second consecutive monthly decline, with a one percent drop in November compared to October. This decrease is due to reduced industrial activity and mild weather. While overall generation decreased, coal-fired power dropped by nearly six percent, reflecting lower demand. Conversely, low-carbon generation, including renewables, surged by forty-two percent, thanks to capacity additions. Despite coals dominance, India aims to expand wind and solar capacity to five hundred gigawatts by 2030. However, rapid expansion poses challenges, such as grid overload and infrastructure development lag.
