The Indian renewable energy sector has witnessed a large influx of investments. The interest to invest in the sector has continued despite the pandemic and the global economic slowdown. The other parameters that have impacted, […]
The wind power segment in India has been facing persistent challenges since the change in tariff regime from feed-in tariffs to competitive bidding. While the direct impact has been the discovery of lower tariffs because […]
As India pushes towards achieving its target of 175 GW of renewable energy by 2020, we are seeing a wave of green energy projects, driven by wind and solar technologies. With this capacity addition, it […]
With the increase in the scale, size and number of solar and wind power installations and focus on cost efficiency, and effective operations and maintenance (O&M) has taken centre stage. The constant monitoring of equipment […]
Over the past decade, India’s net power generation capacity has increased by 212 GW – nearly the total grid size of France. Roughly 40 per cent of this addition came from renewable energy sources, including […]
Renewable energy has established itself as a preferred source for meeting energy needs across countries. Having added an unprecedented 200 GW of renewable capacity through the year, the total renewable power capacity (including hydropower) stood […]
India’s wind power segment has been sliding ever since the introduction of competitive bidding in 2016. The transition from a feed-in tariff (FiT) regime to an auction-based one has indeed been tougher than expected for […]
The year 2020 saw a mix of positives and negatives for renewable energy financing. The downside was a significant decline in debt activity, as Covid-19 worsened the condition of the banking sector and the stream […]
Enabled by strong policy support, incentives and focused attention from the government, India’s renewable energy sector has attracted many domestic and international players, including several entrepreneurs. Large and small independent power producers (IPPs), power utilities, diversified business houses, […]
In the past one year, the policy and regulatory environment in the renewable energy sector has experienced disruptions caused by Covid-19 and the financial stress of discoms. During the lockdown following the onset of the […]
With the Covid-19 crisis casting a shadow over new investment plans, lenders remained wary in 2020, especially on account of a liquidity crunch owing to banking sector issues, and regulatory and contractual uncertainties in the […]
Renewable energy manufacturers continue to face certain challenges in the industry. Although they have gained maturity over the years, wind equipment suppliers continue to struggle with capacity restrictions owing to competitive bidding and thin margins, […]
The Indian renewable energy sector has been growing at a rapid pace over the past decade. This growth has been fuelled by falling prices and aggressive auctioning. While about 15 GW of capacity was auctioned […]
The past decade witnessed both positive and negative changes that impacted the wind power segment. The period saw a capacity addition of 26 GW with a high of 3,200 MW during 2011-12 and 5,000 MW […]
A recent analysis of global project development success by Fitch Solutions highlighted that India suffers from having the highest number of cancelled or suspended power projects. This translated into the ratings agency downward revising its […]
Land acquisition has always been one of the most critical issues in setting up renewable energy projects, whether solar or wind. Solar and wind power projects are location dependent, and these resources are limited to […]
Wind energy has become an essential part of the global renewable energy landscape and dependence on it is anticipated to increase in the foreseeable future. At present, wind turbines are the most commonly used machines […]
The wind power segment has witnessed a slowdown in recent years due to low capacity addition and undersubscribed tenders, and is set to fall short of the government’s flagship target of 60 GW by 2022. […]
As the demand for wind power has been growing consistently over the years, efforts have been made to accelerate technological developments to keep pace with this growth. Wind turbine power capacities have increased by a […]
The Covid-19 pandemic has severely impacted the global economy. Investment and employment levels have been falling across industries. The global energy sector too has been hit hard. Amidst this grim scenario, there is hope of […]
