India’s renewable energy expansion continues to deliver impressive numbers, but the story beneath those numbers is becoming more complex. The country has already crossed 280 gigawatts of non fossil fuel capacity, with solar contributing over 150 gigawatts, placing India among the fastest growing renewable markets globally. These milestones reflect scale, but they do not fully capture how efficiently that energy is being used. What is beginning to emerge is a system where clean energy is being produced in large volumes, but not always at the time when it can generate the most value. The gap between generation and monetization is…
