In September, while speaking at the United Nations Climate Action Summit in New York, Prime Minister Narendra Modi committed to setting up 450 gigawatts (GW) of non-fossil fuel power by 2022. With this, he more than doubled the initial target of 175GW of green energy that his own government had set in 2018. Back home, however, the renewable energy industry that Modi is resting his hopes on is flailing. India’s installed green energy capacity stands at about 65GW today. It was expected to cross 100GW by December 2022, definitely short of the government’s 175GW target and far behind 450GW.
