India's renewable energy capacity has reached 250.52 GW, according to the International Renewable Energy Agency — with solar alone crossing 150 GW, at 150.26 GW, alongside 56.09 GW of wind. In a single year the country added a record 55.29 GW of non-fossil power, nearly doubling its solar additions, and in June 2025 non-fossil sources reached half of all installed electricity capacity, ahead of its 2030 schedule. On one July day, clean energy met a record 51.5% of the country's electricity demand.
