At the forefront of global sustainability, India beckons investors with $300 billion in opportunities across renewable energy, storage, green hydrogen, grid systems, and manufacturing by 2030, as proclaimed by Minister Prahlad Joshi at IRENA’s 16th gathering in Abu Dhabi.
Backed by consistent policies and fair markets, India emerges as a beacon for clean energy capital. Joshi spotlighted imperatives for global synergy in technology diffusion, accessible finance, capability enhancement, and norm alignment, empowering poorer nations for accelerated clean adoption.
India’s full-throated IRENA backing includes sharing hard-won insights and tech, with special outreach to the most vulnerable states to ignite planetary renewable revolutions.
Beyond infrastructure, India’s shift fosters communities, prospects, and intergenerational equity, rooted in ‘Vasudhaiva Kutumbakam’—envisioning one world family with inclusive, resilient frameworks.
Unyielding ambitions: 500 GW clean power by 2030, net-zero by 2070. India preempted its Paris pledge, securing half its capacity non-fossil by 2025, renewables now over 266 GW in a powerhouse lineup.
In its high-octane energy arena, India ramps up storage, grid tech, green corridors, and always-on supply schemes. Homegrown manufacturing in solar, wind, energy cells, and hydrogen gear ensures autonomy and chain fortitude.
Citizen empowerment defines progress: PM Surya Ghar delivers free solar power to 2.5 million homes rapidly, scaling to 10 million. PM-KUSUM aids 2.17 million farmers with solar alternatives to diesel.
Joshi’s dialogue on energy reinvention stressed people-led change with vital international inputs in resources, advancements, and structures for shared affluence.
Felicitations to Dominican Republic’s IRENA presidency and supporting nations signal hopes for fortified partnerships driving sustainable, equitable shifts.
Engagement with UAE counterpart deepened India-UAE bonds in environmental action, renewables, and sustenance, scrutinizing progress since 2014 toward UAE’s 2050 goals, homing in on distributed energy, factories, repositories, tech alliances, and finance blends for perpetual, people-centric energy.
