One of the world's largest employers set to progress with renewable ambitions by installing 500MW on rooftops, another 500MW on land and adding 200MW of wind by 2021-22.

UPDATE: Second attempt at auction hailed for significantly raising renewables deployment trajectory.

As part of early coal-plant retirements, NIPSCO looks to cheaper renewables.

Mineral recycling and renewable-powered mines will be backed through US$50m scheme to offset environmental impacts of race for lithium and others.

India's total solar PV deployment hit 25.21GW by the end of last year, according to figures supplied to parliament by the minister for new and renewable energy and power, R.K. Singh.
