Target of 10GW in new green energy policy

BENGALURU: With the state government having crossed the target of renewable energy generation, especially solar and wind, Karnataka Renewable Energy Development Limited (KERDL) officials have raised the bar in the new policy, which is before the state cabinet for approval.

KERDL has proposed, for 2022-27, a target of generating 10 gigawatt of renewable energy, up from the present 6000MW. That is not all — two new ventures have been given more thrust on hybrid power generation and green hydrogen policy.
