Only four Indian states have been able to surpass their renewable energy targets under the country's plan to add 175 gigawatt capacity by 2022.
As of August 2022, Gujarat was the latest state to hit its target after Rajasthan, Karnataka and Telangana, according to an analysis of data from the Ministry of New and Renewable Energy by Ember Climate.
It highlights that while renewable power, especially solar, is getting mainstream, the progress still widely differs by state.
A study has revealed that Germany generated a fifth of its total electricity supply from solar power this summer, the second highest proportion in Europe.
It’s a delicate moment in the energy war. European resolve is about to go through its toughest test, and a harsh winter or a fresh price spike could shift the calculus.
