“We will harness Bharat’s renewable energy potential, targeting 500 GW of renewable energy through the establishment of mega solar parks, wind parks and the Green Energy Corridor project among others.”
India’s clean-energy transition has accelerated sharply: non-fossil installed capacity reached about 262.74 GW by November 2025 (around 51.5 per cent of total installed capacity), and India crossed the 50 per cent non-fossil milestone in June 2025, five years ahead of its 2030 NDC target. This is supported by mega solar parks, wind parks, the Green Energy Corridor transmission programme, ISTS-charge waivers and competitive bidding. The specific 500 GW non-fossil target is set for 2030 and is being progressed strongly but not yet met. Partial (strong action).
India crosses 50% non-fossil share of installed power capacity five years ahead of its 2030 NDC target; non-fossil capacity ~262 GW by Nov 2025.

We will provide free electricity to poor households under PM Surya Ghar Muft Bijli Yojana.
We have achieved record ethanol blending under the Ethanol Blended Petrol Programme. We will further increase ethanol blending in petrol to mitigate environmental degradation while providing additional income to farmers.
