The policy’s vision is to decarbonize the energy sector, reduce reliance on fossil fuels, and foster a resilient, low-carbon economy. It outlines a roadmap for scaling up renewable energy (RE) technologies, attracting investment, and building institutional capacity to support the transition.
Key Features and Targets
The policy sets ambitious goals:
6,145 MW RE capacity by 2030
17,470 MW by 2041
It includes a diverse mix of RE sources: solar, wind, biomass, waste-to-energy, biofuels, geothermal, tidal, hydro, and green hydrogen. Solar dominates the current RE landscape, accounting for over 80 per cent of installed capacity, with 1,265 MW already in place.
