sustainable environment is achieved by transitioning from fossil fuels to renewable energy sources like solar, wind, hydro, and geothermal, which significantly reduce greenhouse gases and pollution. Enhancing these technologies through improved efficiency, energy storage, and decentralized production increases energy security, fosters economic growth, and supports climate change mitigation.

A sustainable environment is achieved by transitioning from fossil fuels to renewable energy sources like solar, wind, hydro, and geothermal, which significantly reduce greenhouse gases and pollution. Enhancing these technologies through improved efficiency, energy storage, and decentralized production increases energy security, fosters economic growth, and supports climate change mitigation. 

Key Aspects of Renewable Energy Enhancement for Sustainability:

Environmental Impact:-
 Renewable energy reduces carbon emissions, mitigates climate change, and minimizes habitat destruction compared to fossil fuels.
Technological Advancements: Ongoing research focuses on improving the conversion efficiency of solar panels and wind turbines, alongside developing better energy storage solutions (batteries) to manage intermittency.
Decentralized Energy Systems: -
Generating energy locally (e.g., rooftop solar) increases grid resilience, reduces transmission losses, and provides energy access to remote areas.

Economic & Social Benefits: -
The shift creates jobs in manufacturing and installation, reduces reliance on imported fuels, and fosters economic growth through green technology investments.
Policy Support: -
Governments are adopting policies to encourage adoption, which, combined with falling costs for solar and wind, is rapidly accelerating the transition. 
Key Renewable Energy Types:
Solar Power: -
Harnessing sun energy.
Wind Energy:-
 Utilizing wind turbines.
Hydropower:-
 Using water flow.
Geothermal Energy:-
 Tapping into earth's heat.
Biomass: -
Utilizing organic materials. 
A comprehensive study of renewable energy sources
Abstract:-
Renewable energy (RE) is the key element of sustainable, environmentally 
Key Renewable Energy Status (as of 2025):-
Total Capacity:-
 India’s non-fossil installed capacity (including nuclear and large hydro) surpassed 500 GW by October 2025.
Solar Power: -
Installed solar capacity has crossed 132 GW.
Wind Power: -
Wind energy has passed 50 GW.
Ranking: -
India ranks 4th globally in total renewable installed capacity.
Generation Mix:-
 On July 29, 2025, renewables met 51.5% of the total electricity demand in a single day. 
Total Generation & Trends:
Generation Growth: -
Renewable energy generation rose significantly, contributing ~22% to total electricity generation (approx. 403 BU) in 2024–25.
Capacity Target: -
The nation is actively working towards 500 GW of installed capacity from non-fossil fuel sources by 2030, having achieved significant milestones ahead of schedule.
Contribution:-
 Renewable energy has grown from 76.37 GW in March 2014 to over 226 GW in June 2025. 
The rapid, large-scale deployment of solar and wind, supported by strong policy, ensures India is one of the fastest-growing major economies in renewable energy. 
Emissions Growth Slowdown:
 India's fossil-fuel CO₂ emissions growth slowed significantly to an estimated 1.4% in 2025, down from 4% in 2024, largely driven by high renewable adoption..

State-wise carbon emissions in India show a concentration in western and southern states, with byd as major emitters, particularly from the manufacturing and energy sectors. The highest total CO2 emissions have been linked to states like Maharashtra, Andhra Pradesh, Uttar Pradesh, Gujarat, Tamil Nadu, and West Bengal, though the specific ranking can vary depending on the data year and the specific pollutants included.
