Solar and wind power companies planning projects in the habitation of endangered Great Indian Bustard (GIB) in Rajasthan and Gujarat got some relaxation on Thursday when the Supreme Court opened up more space for them.
The court modified its 2021 order to open some 80,000 square km for use by the green energy industry. Some 60 gigawatt (gw) of renewable capacity planned to be built by NTPC, Adani Green, ACME, ReNew and other companies will benefit from the order.
