About Renewable Energy Industry 
Indias renewable energy industry is the 3rd
largest in the world with 40 of energy
capabilities added in the year 2022. Also, the
country is 3rd largest consumer of electricity in
the world. India is committed to increasing its
energy production with non-fossil fuel sources by
2030 and the country is doing well in this
direction.

Hydroelectric Power In India

• Hydroelectric power is one of the most important
  renewable energy resources in India and this is
  evident from the current world rank of the
  country. The total installed capacity of
  hydroelectric power in the country is 5th in the
  world. 
•   
• Indias exploitable hydroelectric potential is
  estimated to be 148,701 MW
• The country can add 6,780 MW from hydro schemes
• It has also identified 56 sites for pumped
  storage producing 94,000 MW

5
Wind Power In India

• Wind power is also one of the important renewable
  energy sources in India and the country has been
  developing its capacity to exploit wind power
  since 1990. Although a late starter in wind power
  generation, India has achieved considerable
  growth in this field. 
•   
• There are over 800 wind-monitoring stations
  across the country
• Indias gross wind power potential is estimated
  to be 302 GW
• Wind power accounts for 10 of the total
  installed power generation capacity

6
Waste To Energy In India

• Considering the pile of solid and liquid waste
  generated in the country, it can also become a
  renewable energy industry. Also, the country has
  already started taking steps towards electricity
  generation with urban waste. Indias waste
  production has increased with the increase in
  urban population. 
• Approximately 5.5 crore tonnes of municipal solid
  waste is generated daily in the country
• The daily sewage generation of the urban
  population is estimated to be 3,800 crore liters 
• Presently Indias wastewater treatment plants
  produce renewable energy from sewage gas

7
Solar Power In India

• Solar is a fast-developing industry in India. The
  country ranks 4th in solar power generation in
  the world. The solar energy companies in India
  are doing a commendable job in increasing Indias
  installed capacity.
• As of October 2022, the total installed capacity
  of the country is 61.625 GW
• India achieved the initial target of 20 GW four
  years in advance
• Rooftop solar power accounts for 2.1 GW or 70 of
  industrial products

8
Solar Powered States In India

• With over 300 clear and sunny days in a year,
  India has a vast potential of generating solar
  electricity. Leading solar companies in India are
  working in every state. Heres the list of
  solar-powered states in the country.
• Rajasthan (14,454.70 MW)
• Gujarat (7,806.80 MW)
• Karnataka (7,597.92 MW)

9
How Do Solar Panels Work? 

• Solar panels are vital for generating energy from
  solar light. The panels capture sunlight in the
  form of radiant energy and convert the energy
  into electricity in DC form. A solar panel making
  company in India makes these panels with silicon
  semiconductors that absorb sunlight. 
• Solar panels generate electricity through the
  photovoltaic effect
• Solar panels are placed southwards in the
  northern hemisphere and northwards in the
  southern hemisphere
• These panels are tilted to get maximum radiation
