IWTMA Delhi Roundtable Conference 2025

India is facing a rise in energy demand that corresponds to its rapid economic expansion. To meet this sustainably, India has embedded clean energy at the centre of its growth strategy, committing to net-zero by 2070 and targeting 500 GW of non-fossil capacity by 2030, according to the Ministry of Power and the Ministry of New and Renewable Energy.

Wind energy stands as a key pillar of India’s strategy to achieve energy transition at low cost. India has set an ambitious target of 500GW by 2030 for non-fossil fuels, out of which 20% i.e. 100GW is expected to be share of wind-based power installations. 

Over the past decade, India has laid a strong policy foundation for wind sector growth, with measures targeting both demand creation and manufacturing development. On the demand side, visibility has been driven by the government’s commitment to a 10 GW annual tendering trajectory and the rollout of hybrid renewable tenders offering round-the-clock supply.

To achieve this target, Indian Wind Turbine Manufacturers Association (IWTMA) organised a meeting with various government representatives from state and centre in Delhi on 26th August 2025 at the Hotel Taj Mahal, Mansingh Road, New Delhi. The roundtable conference discussions centered around the RE-RTC (Renewable Energy Round The-Clock), Resource Adequacy Planning, Wind-Solar Hybrid power deployment, Grid Construction and Allocation, RoW, PSAs, Wind Bidding Trajectory, and Repowering Potential of older Wind Turbine models. The conference concluded with an agreement to the need for creating a targeted task force to resolve industry issues to keep India on track to achieve 100 GW of Wind Power by 2030.
