State ranks fourth in country in terms of installed capacity
Though Maharashtra ranks fourth in the country in terms of installed capacity of renewable energy, the State Economic Survey 2020-21 showed it had failed to tap even 50% of its potential capacity.
According to the report, Maharashtra has a potential capacity of 21,250 MW and as on November 30, 2020, the installed capacity was 9,817 MW.
The report said, “The GoM has adopted the policy of achieving the target of renewable purchase obligation up to 15% in line with GoI. Accordingly, policies have been announced for grid connected electricity generation through renewable energy sources. The State ranks fourth in India after Karnataka (15,315 MW), Tamil Nadu (14,827 MW) and Gujarat (11,826 MW) in terms of installed capacity of renewable energy.”
