India's clean power just crossed a line it never had before: 100 billion units in a single quarter

For the first time ever, India's renewable generators — solar, wind and other clean sources, not counting large hydro — produced more than 100 billion units of electricity in one quarter, according to analysis from the Centre for Research on Energy and Clean Air. Solar led the surge, jumping 39% in a year to supply a tenth of all India's electricity for the first time, while wind rose 29%. It happened even as national demand hit a record peak.
