India is now the World's Third Largest Solar Generator

India overtook Japan to become the third-largest solar power generator in 2023, providing 5.9% of global growth in solar.

Solar generation in 2023 was 17 times higher than in 2015, but coal is still meeting the majority of India’s demand growth.

India’s per capita emissions from the power sector are the fourth lowest in the G20, despite high coal reliance.
