Solar Wind Energy Archives - Newscript EnergyWorld

By Pallab Bhattacharya Newscript, August 16, 2025 India’s renewable map is being reshaped by its western states. Rajasthan, with 37.4 GW installed capacity, and Gujarat, with 35.5 GW, have emerged as the epicentres of India’s green build out. Tamil Nadu, with its wind-solar mix, continues to anchor the south. Favourable land policies, high solar irradiance, and proactive state governments have made Rajasthan and Gujarat magnets for corporate investment. Developers from Adani to InSolare are funnelling capital into these hubs, supported by new transmission corridors that link projects to demand centres. The concentration of capacity raises questions of geographic balance, with eastern states lagging far behind. Analysts warn this could exacerbate regional disparities unless...

By Team Newscript, August 14, 2025 Thermal and Renewable Power: AUSC Coal Projects Hit Approval Roadblocks India’s ambitions to modernise its ageing coal fleet with advanced ultra-supercritical (AUSC) technology are running into bureaucratic delays. Announced in the Union Budget 2024–25, the projects were intended to replace over 130GW of coal capacity nearing 30 years of service. Industry executives say AUSC units, which operate at higher efficiency and lower emissions than conventional plants, are critical to meeting both energy security and climate commitments. However, multiple projects remain stuck awaiting environmental clearance and final techno-economic approvals. Developers warn that the cost of delay is twofold: rising maintenance bills for ageing units and a missed op...
