India's Growing Power Demand and Rajasthan's Renewable Energy Expansion Plans
India's power demand is rising, driven notably by data centres seeking an additional 26.3 GW across 11 states, with 17 GW already applying for grid connectivity. Rajasthan is advancing its renewable energy goals by amending land rules to expedite large-scale projects and aims to add 75 GW to its existing 50 GW capacity by 2030. These developments align with India's national target of 500 GW non-fossil-fuel capacity, highlighting opportunities in solar, wind, energy storage, and green hydrogen infrastructure.
