India Launches $15B Green Energy Corridor to Boost Renewable Power

India officially launched its $15 billion Green Energy Corridor project on July 7, 2026, aiming to enhance the transmission of renewable energy across the country. The project will connect solar and wind farms in Rajasthan, Gujarat, and Tamil Nadu to the national grid, improving power reliability and reducing carbon emissions. According to Reuters, the corridor is expected to add 30 gigawatts of clean energy capacity by 2030, supporting India’s goal to reach 500 GW of renewable energy. The initiative is a key part of the government’s infrastructure push to modernize the energy sector and ensure sustainable growth. Construction has already started on several high-voltage transmission lines and substations under this project.
