That's a surprisingly small total capacity for a country of one billion. China has almost 8x India's total capacity, and 5x India's renewable capacity.<p>What is that going to look like as the country develops further? Will low carbon continue to grow, or will they be forced to reach for easier alternatives to scale quickly?
I keep seeing more and more stories like this, like how the UK recently closed down its last coal plant. Or how MS and Google are investing in committing to buy nuclear because of their thirst for energy to feed the great AI in the Sky™. Surely having buyers will accelerate the development of some of these nuclear technologies.<p>Are these all cause for optimism, that we are making good progress towards renewable energy?
