Is India a potential source of power from wind and solar?

Reports indicate that this focus on wind and solar is likely to continue and indeed to expand beyond this initial target date 3. Our estimate for the potential source of power from wind in India assumes deployment of a fleet of 2.5 MW Goldwind turbines onshore, with larger, 8.0 MW Vestas, turbines designated for placement offshore.

Should India change its energy system?

This growth would call for a fundamental shift in India's energy system. Such an adjustment would be demanding but not impossible; for perspective, the Chinese government installed over 750 GW of renewable generation capacity (wind, solar and hydro) over the past decade with ambition to reach 1000 GW of installed wind power by 2050 23.

How much solar power does India need?

Since 2010, India has installed ~25 GW of wind power and 35 GW of solar PV. The 80% renewables scenario studied here would require addition of approximately 1000 GW of wind power and 500 GW of solar PV by 2040. This growth would call for a fundamental shift in India's energy system.

Will India integrate 390 GW of solar power by 2030?

We would note, however, the tenfold increase in wind and solar PV capacity realized over the last decade in China and would point further to the report by the Climate Policy Initiative 24 which concluded that India could integrate as much as 390 GW of low-cost wind and solar power by 2030.

Is offshore wind available in India's EEZ?

For offshore wind, we assumed that the wind resource available over a given location in India's EEZ was under the jurisdiction of the country's nearest region. These regional divisions, along with the mean of on- and offshore wind and solar PV CFs over the year 2016 are indicated in Fig. 2.
