Environment Minister Bhupender Yadav has said that India emerged as the world's second-largest solar market, surpassing the United States in annual solar capacity additions in 2025. He stated this achievement highlights the nation's rapid clean energy growth, helping ensure efficient, reliable, and sustainable solar infrastructure.
According to him, while the country's solar capacity stood at 2.8 GW in 2014, it has crossed 155 GW as of June 03, 2026, representing a 5,370 per cent rise.
Further, he stated that India has crossed 50 per cent non-fossil installed capacity and met its nationally determined contributions (NDC), the non-binding, voluntary climate action plans that every country is obligated to decide upon and implement under the 2015 Paris Agreement, targets ahead of schedule. Moreover, he added more than 40 lakh households have been powered by solar energy under the Prime Minister Surya Ghar Muft Bijli Yojana.
