COP30 chief hails India, China for leading global clean energy transition

COP30 President Andre Corra do Lago has praised India and China for playing a transformative role in the global energy transition, saying both countries have embraced climate action "in a very clear way" and are driving down the cost of clean technologies worldwide. Addressing a press conference at the opening of COP30 in Belem, Brazil, do Lago said China has "embraced this agenda in an extraordinary way" by combining scale, technology and affordability, three crucial ingredients that have accelerated the world's progress towards cleaner energy systems. He said both China and India are shaping the future of the global energy transition. China has very advanced technology and has a scale that can only be compared to India. And India is somehow doing the same, because they also have brilliant companies and engineers and incredible people. They are going in the same direction, he said in response to a question on China's contribution to the fight against climate change Do Lago emphasi

Adani Solar ships 15k MW solar modules, boosting India's clean energy push

Adani Solar has crossed a major milestone by shipping over 15,000 megawatts (MW) of solar modules across domestic and international markets - becoming the first and fastest Indian manufacturer to achieve this feat. Of the total shipments, 10,000 MW were deployed within India and 5,000 MW exported abroad, equivalent to 28 million modules covering nearly 7,500 football fields, officials said. Around 70 per cent of these modules were produced using Adani's India-made solar cells, reinforcing the company's role in advancing the Make in India and Atmanirbhar Bharat initiatives. Adani Solar plans to more than double its production capacity from 4,000 MW to 10,000 MW by the next financial year and aims to ship another 15,000 MW in the coming years. The company is the only Indian manufacturer listed among the world's top 10 solar module producers by research firm Wood Mackenzie.

India on track to peak coal power emissions before 2030: CREA report

India could see its coal power emissions peak before 2030 if it meets its 500 gigawatt (GW) non-fossil power capacity target, according to a new analysis published on Tuesday. The report by the Centre for Research on Energy and Clean Air (CREA) said China, India and Indonesia, the three largest coal growth markets and top drivers of global CO2 emissions since the Paris Agreement, are now on track to peak power sector emissions by 2030, provided they sustain their clean energy momentum. Together, these countries accounted for 73 per cent of global coal consumption in 2024. According to the study, India's clean electricity growth has accelerated sharply, with a record 29 gigawatt (GW) of non-fossil capacity added in 2024 and 25 GW more in the first half of 2025. "Meeting India's 500 GW of non-fossil power capacity set by Prime Minister (Narendra) Modi could in fact peak coal power before 2030. The country has already crossed the 50 per cent mark well ahead of its 2030 deadline, even
