India Oct 08, 2026

India's planning to revamp 25 GW of aging wind energy projects, Union Minister Pralhad Joshi shared at the Windergy India 2026 conference.

The goal? Keep the country's wind power strong (currently at 59 GW) and push toward an ambitious 100 GW target by 2030.

This upgrade will focus on states like Tamil Nadu, Gujarat, and Andhra Pradesh, which are the leading states in installed wind capacities.

India added 6.05 GW wind capacity

India just added 6.05 GW of new wind capacity in FY26 and plans to beat that this fiscal year.

As Joshi put it, updating old projects is key for hitting future renewable goals, so expect more wind in India's energy mix soon!
