Beyond energy independence: Backward integration as India’s edge
Countries reliant on imported minerals and components are rethinking energy strategies in solar, batteries, and green hydrogen. Securing upstream and midstream processes is no longer optional but essential for flexibility. India’s integrated approach across mining, processing, and manufacturing positions the country as a challenging player on the world stage.
Nearly half of solar capacity will be co-located with storage by 2060, says DNV
DNV’s Energy Transition Outlook 2025 report also predicts that distributed generation solar should begin outpacing utility-scale installations in some parts of the world by 2060. It adds that the levelized cost of electricity for solar is beginning to plateau and is expected to slow to an annual drop below 1% by the 2050s.
How India’s move to secure rooftop solar data with stricter inverter protocols will help to protect energy sovereignty
India’s decision to tighten inverter protocols and secure rooftop solar data under national jurisdiction is a critical step toward reinforcing its energy sovereignty. With ambitious rooftop solar targets already underway, these measures help ensure that growth in clean energy does not come at the cost of vulnerability in grid security, data privacy, or foreign dependence.

PMSGY accelerates residential rooftop solar, yet supply and financing hurdles remain
Despite a nearly fourfold increase in applications between March 2024 and July 2025, only 13.1% of the target of one crore (10 million) residential rooftop solar installations had been achieved, and just 14.1% of the allocated INR 65,700 crore ($7.5 billion) in subsidies released under the PM Surya Ghar: Muft Bijli Yojana as of July 2025. Given this context, achieving the FY2027 target of 30 GW capacity remains a considerable challenge, according to a new report by IEEFA and JMK Research.
