India crosses 300 GW non-fossil capacity as solar reaches 164.59 GW

SolarNews Brief

India's non-fossil power capacity reached 300.50 GW at the end of July 2026, putting the country beyond 60% of its 2030 target. Solar is the largest component at 164.59 GW, ahead of wind, hydro, bio-power and nuclear.

India reported 300.50 GW of installed non-fossil electricity capacity as of July 31, 2026. The mix includes 164.59 GW of solar, 58.14 GW of wind, 57.24 GW of hydro, 11.75 GW of bio-power and 8.78 GW of nuclear capacity. The milestone matters because solar now anchors India's clean-capacity buildout while grid integration, storage and domestic manufacturing policy become the next constraints.
