India delays wind and solar penalties until April 2027
India is giving wind and solar power companies an extra year before tougher penalties kick in, now set for April 2027 instead of 2026.
The government made this move after hearing industry concerns, hoping to give everyone more time to adjust while still working toward a more reliable power grid.

The updated rules will bring in higher "deviation charges" if renewable energy producers don't deliver the amount of power they promised.
This is supposed to help keep the grid steady, but some in the industry worry it could hit their earnings and slow down clean energy investments.
India keeps 500GW by 2030 target
Despite these bumps, India is sticking with its ambitious plan: reaching 500 gigawatts of renewable energy by 2030.
The delay aims to balance supporting green growth while making sure the country's electricity supply stays stable.
