NEW DELHI – August 2025 – The Indian government has approved a US$10 billion infrastructure package aimed at doubling the country’s renewable energy capacity by 2030. The plan prioritizes solar, wind, and green hydrogen projects, offering subsidies, tax breaks, and low-interest loans to both domestic and foreign investors.
The initiative is expected to create more than half a million jobs and significantly reduce carbon emissions. International investors, particularly from the Gulf states and Southeast Asia, have already expressed interest in co-financing large-scale projects.
Market Insight:
This policy shift could drive substantial growth in India’s green bond market and open opportunities in project financing and equipment supply. Investors with expertise in emerging markets and renewable technologies may benefit from early entry.
Editor’s Note:
India’s renewable sector is entering a decisive growth phase, but execution risks remain, including land acquisition delays and grid infrastructure challenges. Partnering with local entities could mitigate some of these risks.
