How India and the six SuCRIT states are moving from fossil to clean power
Clean power, the grid and storage
India and the six states on the five indicators that can be compared fairly
Pick a column to compare it below; pick a state to filter.
Not compared here: 1 (India only, modelled), 5 and 6 (national storage), 2B (jumps too much in small states), 7, 7A and 8 (programme counts), and 2 in GW (state sizes differ too much, so growth is used instead).

Out of every 100 units, how many are clean? Power plants on the left, the electricity they actually produce on the right.
Each bubble counts the policies introduced in that financial year. Click a bubble to narrow the list.
CO₂ released for each unit of electricity used. Lower is better.
Storage lets solar power be used after sunset. Each square is 1% of all storage ordered since 2023 (batteries and pumped hydro).
By law, power companies must buy a rising share of clean power. The dashed line is what the law requires; the solid line is what they actually bought (proxy values until official BEE figures arrive).
SuCRIT's goal is an extra ~15% cut in emissions per rupee of GDP by 2030, beyond what India would cut anyway. Modelling says 21.7%, but no measured figure exists until India's next climate report (BTR).
Beyond the power numbers, SuCRIT tracks money raised for clean projects (Indicators 7 and 7A) and ideas that one state copies from another (Indicator 8). Counted up to Sept 2026.
