India's Power Demand to Grow 6% Annually with Strong Renewable Capacity Additions
India's power demand is projected to grow about 6% annually over the next four to five years, driven by renewable energy capacity additions of 45-50 GW per year, according to a Centrum Institutional Research report. The country added 6.8 GW of solar and 712 MW of wind capacity early in FY27, supporting targets of approximately 500 GW non-fossil fuel capacity by 2030. Renewable energy companies and independent power producers are expected to maintain growth amid favorable demand and regulatory support.
