to Rs 12,639 crore from Rs 11,941

India needs to scale up its non-fos-
sil fuel capacity to 600 gigawatts
GW by 2030 to meet its growing
electricity demand reliably and
affordably,
a
report
by
New
Delhi-based think tank has said.
The Council on Energy, Environ-
ment and Water (CEEW) study,
released, said if India's power
demand
continues
to
outpace
current projections due to a warm-
ing planet or strong economic
growth over the next five years, it
needs a plan to raise its non-fossil
energy capacity to 600 GW, mainly
due to cheaper RE resources.
"This would include 377 GW of
solar, 148 GW of wind, 62 GW of
hydro, and 20 GW of nuclear
energy,” the study titled How can
India meet its rising power demand?
Pathways to 2030 said.
It found that if India’s electricity
demand grows in keeping with the
Central
Electricity
Authority’s
(CEA) projections, India’s existing,
under-construction,
and
planned
generation capacities would be
adequate to meet power needs in
2030.
