Sun shines over renewable energy

摘要

The Indian renewable energy industry has never had it so good. Wind power installations in 2011-12 where the highest in a single financial year, at 3,163 MW, taking the total installed capacity to 17,320 MW. The Centre has announced an ambitious national solar mission under which 20,000 MW of solar power capacity will be added in the next decade. The first phase of the solar mission envisages 1,000 MW of capacity, both solar thermal and solar photovoltaic.
