India's ambitious plan to develop 25 GW of hydro-pumped storage projects, a crucial component of the country's renewable energy strategy, has faced significant delays.
India's ambitious plan to develop 25 GW of hydro-pumped storage projects, a crucial component of the country's renewable energy strategy, has faced significant delays. These projects, intended to enhance grid stability and facilitate renewable energy integration, have yet to commence due to challenges such as land acquisition, environmental clearances, and financial constraints. The government aims to overcome these hurdles by encouraging state participation, optimizing funding mechanisms, and aligning these projects with India's target of achieving 500 GW of renewable energy capacity by 2030.
