columnsUpdated: Dec 05, 2020, 20:44 ISTPrime Minister (PM) Narendra Modi recently told a conference of global renewable energy investors hosted by India that the country’s renewable energy capacity would reach 220 gigawatts (GW) within two years. The largest supply of renewable energy is to be provided by the sun, with wind coming a poor second. The American bank, Goldman Sachs, is as optimistic about renewable energy as the Indian PM. Solar energy development also raises environmental issues. The lack of solar cells and modules manufacturing capacity is another problem.
