India’s renewable power generation from solar, wind, hydro and bioenergy rose by a record 98 TWh (+24%) in 2025, driven by strong growth in solar and wind, according to a report by Ember. The increase was twice the nation’s electricity demand growth of 49 TWh, which was abnormally low owing to milder temperatures and slower industrial activity. As a result, India’s fossil power generation fell by 3.3%.
Indian solar manufacturer Saatvik Green Energy has acquired an 80% equity stake in Melcon Transformers and Electricals, a Jaipur-based transformer manufacturer.
