Renewable energy refers to energy generated from natural sources that are constantly replenished, such as sunlight, wind, water, and biomass. It is crucial in mitigating climate change, reducing greenhouse gas emissions, and transitioning towards a sustainable, low-carbon future. It helps reduce dependence on finite fossil fuel resources, which are both environmentally damaging and subject to price volatility. By harnessing renewable sources, countries can enhance energy security and promote self-sufficiency in meeting their energy needs. Renewable energy sources are cleaner and have lower environmental impacts than traditional fossil fuels. They do not emit harmful pollutants or contribute significantly to air pollution, thus improving public health and reducing the negative consequences of climate change. Moreover, renewable energy technologies have experienced significant advancements in recent years, leading to cost reductions and increased efficiency. This has made renewable energy increasingly competitive with fossil fuels, driving its widespread adoption and deployment across various sectors, including electricity generation, transportation, and heating.

The market in India is majorly driven by increasing government support by implementing supportive policies. These initiatives have attracted investments and created a favorable environment for renewable energy development. Furthermore, the declining costs of renewable energy technologies, particularly solar and wind, are significantly contributing to the market. The lowered prices of solar photovoltaic modules and wind turbines have made renewable energy more competitive with fossil fuels. Apart from this, India's rapidly growing economy and expanding population have resulted in an accelerating demand for energy. To meet this increasing demand, renewable energy sources are being utilized as a sustainable and clean alternative to conventional fossil fuels. The decentralization of power generation through renewable energy projects also helps to address energy access challenges in remote areas. Furthermore, the Indian government's focus on increasing energy access and electrification in rural areas has amplified the demand for renewable energy solutions. These areas often lack reliable access to the grid, and decentralized renewable energy systems offer a practical and sustainable way to meet their energy needs.
