Powering the Transition: India's Clean Energy Bet
Give feedback
India is building clean energy faster than its grid can absorb it. What does that mean for your business?
India's energy transition is moving faster than expected on generation and slower than needed on grid, financing and supply chain. Non-fossil sources now account for more than half of India's installed electricity capacity, yet transmission bottlenecks, DISCOM stress and a significant financing premium mean the gap between what is being built and what the system can absorb is where the real corporate risk lives. This session, led by Akanksha Golchha, will assess what the transition means for Indian business leaders making decisions on energy procurement, supply chain exposure and capital allocation today.

Key Takeaways

What India's clean energy milestones mean for corporate energy strategy and where the ground reality diverges most from the headline numbers.

A framework for the energy procurement decision: open-access renewables, captive generation, or DISCOM-sourced power.

Where India's EV and clean energy supply chain is a genuine opportunity, and where upstream import dependence remains a structural constraint.

Green hydrogen viability and CBAM exposure: what Indian business leaders need to plan for now.
