Indian PM to dedicate 5 NTPC RE projects to the nation

These include the two largest floating solar projects in India.

Indian Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi will dedicate to the nation five renewable energy projects of NTPC, India’s largest integrated energy producer, including the two largest floating solar projects in the country.

In a statement, NTPC said the 100-megawatt (MW) Ramagundam Floating Solar Project in Telangana and the 92MW Kayamkulam Floating Solar Project in Kerala were amongst those that will be dedicated to the nation.

Modi will also lead the stone laying for three NTPC projects which are the 735MW Nokh Solar Project in Rajasthan, Green Hydrogen Mobility Project in Ladakh, and Green Hydrogen-Natural Gas Blending Project in Gujarat.

“The renewable projects will further reinforce government’s commitment towards achieving the target of 500 GW (gigawatts) of renewable capacity by 2030,” it said.

NTPC plans to reach over 60GW of renewable energy capacity by 2030, making up 50% of its overall total generation capacity. This is in line with India’s commitment to the UN Climate Change Conference at Glasgow, and its goal to achieve 500GW of non-fossil energy capacity by 2030.

Global clean energy tech market to hit $2t by 2035

This is fuelled by investments as countries aim to enhance energy security.The global clean energy technology market is projected to grow from $700b in 2023 to over $2t by 2035, nearing the scale of the crude oil market, according to the International Energy Agency (IEA).This growth is fuelled by significant investments in clean technology manufacturing as countries aim to enhance energy security, maintain economic competitiveness, and cut emissions. Investment is concentrated in regions with established positions in clean energy, particularly China, the European Union, the UK, and increasingly, India.Whilst the US, EU, and India have taken measures to support their clean energy sectors, China is expected to remain the world's manufacturing hub. By 2035, China's clean technology exports are forecasted to exceed $340b—comparable to projected oil export revenues from Saudi Arabia and the UAE.Southeast Asia, Latin America, and Africa contribute less than 5% of global cleantech production value, yet the IEA suggests that these areas still hold opportunities within the clean energy economy. Developing economies, for instance, could leverage competitive advantages to advance in the value chain beyond resource extraction.The IEA said Southeast Asia could become one of the most cost-effective regions for producing polysilicon and wafers for solar panels over the next decade.
