The report estimates an average annual growth rate of 33 per cent in rooftop solar installations over the next two fiscal years – driven by a combination of rising energy demands, falling technology costs, and supportive policy frameworks.
For renewable energy to truly fulfill its promise, the world must invest not only in expanding capacity but also in building a system that is resilient, adaptable, and informed by the best available climate science.
The report's optimism stems from the observation that 2023 marked the first year where the continued expansion of building construction was decoupled from the corresponding rise in sector greenhouse gas emissions.
Since 2014, India has improved electricity access, strengthened energy security, and set a foundation for clean energy transition. However, meeting the 2030 goal requires adding 56 GW of non-fossil capacity annually.
Transitioning to sustainable systems requires substantial investment and coordinated effort across sectors. Additionally, achieving these goals hinges on overcoming resistance from vested interests, such as industrial agriculture and fossil fuel industries.
Produced using renewable energy sources like solar, wind, hydro and biomass, Green Hydrogen offers a clean and sustainable alternative to fossil fuels.
The project reflects a broader commitment from the Indian government to assist Sri Lanka in its development goals. Over the years, India has engaged...
Nearly 5,000 elephants and 1,600 people have been killed in the last 15 years in clashes between elephants and humans in Sri Lanka, home to one of the largest remaining populations of Asian elephants, according to official figures.
Staying close to 1.5°C on the other hand preserves at least some glacier ice in all regions, even Scandinavia, with 20-30 per cent remaining in the four most sensitive regions; and 40-45 per cent in the Himalayas and Caucuses; stressing the growing urgency of the 1.5°C temperature goal and rapid decarbonization to achieve it.
Through the KCC framework, farmers benefit from revolving credit facilities for up to five years. This flexible structure allows them to draw and repay funds as per their seasonal requirements without having to reapply for loans each season.
