Status of Renewable Energy in India

Renewable Energy Is Energy Obtained From Natural Sources That Regenerate At A Higher Rate Than They Consume. The Two Main Types Of Energy Are Renewable Energy And Non-Renewable Energy. On The Other Hand, Fossil Fuels Like Coal, Oil, And Gas Are Non-Renewable Resources That Take Hundreds Of Millions Of Years To Form. When Fossil Fuels Are Burned To Produce Energy, They Emit Harmful Greenhouse Gases Like Carbon Dioxide. The Solution To The Global Warming Crisis Lies In A Change Away From Fossil Fuels, Which Now Produce Most Emissions. Renewable Energy Sources Contribute A Lot To Reducing The Emission Of Greenhouse Gases. Renewable Energy Sources Are The Answer To India's Energy Demands, Having Several Socio-Economic Advantages Compared To Carbon-Based Fossil Fuels. Renewable Energy Plays An Important Role In Achieving Sustainable Development In The Future. Through The “Make In India” Initiative Of The Indian Government, Renewable Energy Will Account For Significant Job Creation In Urban Areas As Well As Rural Areas Along With Several Other Renewable Energy Policies Which Cover Solar Energy, Wind Energy Among Other Renewable Energy Sources. This Paper Aims To Analyze The Current Total Generation And Sector-Wise Distribution Of Renewable Energy In India. To Identify The Initiatives Undertaken By The Government Of India In The Field Of Renewable Energy
