Coal accounted for the highest installed thermal energy capacity in India, valued at nearly 210 gigawatts as of February 2024.
Although, the country is heavily reliant on coal, the government of India is committed to increasing the use of clean energy sources and through small and large scale projects. In addition to renewable energy generation, the projects also aimed to create employment opportunities, especially in the rural areas.
