UNI ANALYSIS India’s energy shift gathers pace, IEA says non-fossil sources will power half of nation by 2035

By Muskan Bhatia
Non-fossil sources will provide over half of India’s electricity by 2035, according to the World Energy Outlook 2025 report published by the International Energy Agency (IEA) on Wednesday. Lauding early achievement of the country’s energy transition targets, Thomas Spencer, one of the main authors of the report, said, “India’s non-fossil electricity capacity has outpaced all previous projections, meeting the 2030 target five years early.”
Experts pointed out that in India, solar and wind power will witness a rise from the present-day 11 percent to over 25 percent by 2030 and to nearly 40 percent by 2035. While the country’s nuclear power capacity is expected to triple by 2035, from its current 8 GW, this will help lower the carbon intensity of electricity generation, the study highlighted.
