Introduction
We already have over 8 billion people, and the population is increasing dramatically every year! There are numerous issues related to the need for energy, which is increasing with the expanding population. Non-renewable energy sources are rapidly running out almost every day. This puts a serious question on the earth, which is why we need to find more sustainable power sources to satisfy our energy needs. Renewable energy is rapidly gaining global attention due to its multiple benefits.
Understanding Renewable Energy
The use of natural resources to generate electricity or energy that can be refilled daily is known as renewable energy. This includes sunlight, wind, and water. The term “renewable” states that these energy sources will be replenished, which means these will never run out. Thus, renewable energy sources can be taken as a feasible and sustainable substitute for fossil fuels.
These sources are also very beneficial for the environment. The characteristics of fossil fuel are to emit greenhouse gases (GHGs,) which are very harmful to the environment. However, renewable energy sources are opposite to them and emit very little amount of GHGs and other pollutants. Thus, renewable energy sources are free from both air pollution and climate change. Through this, it can be concluded that these sources are way safer and healthier for both the planet and its people.
The Global Shift Towards Renewable Energy
It is globally acknowledged that renewable energy sources are crucial yet vital for a more sustainable future. They can produce electricity without emitting excessive greenhouse gases. This helps to deal with climate change as well as have an abundance of energy sources. This ensures that the future generations are not deprived of energy sources. Not only this, but using renewable energy sources also allows the promotion of better public health, which also has the potential to spur economic growth. This spurs the growth of renewable energy sources.
Renewable energy sources have more benefits than non-renewable ones. Sustainability is a key benefit of renewable energy sources in contrast to the other energy sources. We all know that fossil fuels are finite and will be exhausted one day, creating a hollow of energy sources. However, wind, water, and sunlight are refilled every day which is a better option for energy security for mankind as well as for the environment. Renewable energy sources do not impact the environment negatively, which is a notable benefit of these sources.
India’s Role in the Renewable Energy Revolution
India had a vital part to play in the revolution of renewable energy. The country has addressed its potential in the energy sector and is consciously putting positive efforts to pave a path to a better future. That is why the government has introduced an ambitious goal of achieving 175 GW of renewable energy capacity. Additionally, it will also try to achieve 5 GW of small hydropower, 10 GW of biomass power, 60 GW of wind power, and 100 GW of solar power. India, which relied mostly on coal-fired power plants for energy, has taken this incredibly inspiring goal. So, we must look for sustainable solutions before the non-renewable options expire.
Government Initiatives Driving Renewable Energy Adoption in India
The energetic goal set out by the Indian government has started several initiatives. Among these are the National Solar Mission, the National Wind Energy Mission, and the National Bioenergy Mission. Through these promising initiatives, the adoption of renewable energy technology will be promoted, which will also develop this field of energy. This will also ensure that renewable energy is more accessible and affordable to the people of India.
To motivate and spread enthusiasm in this sector, the Indian government has developed several policies. This aims to promote the growth of the renewable energy sector. The government has deployed feed-in tariffs, net metering, and renewable purchase obligations. These policies are implemented to provide financial help to businesses and individuals through incentives so that they can invest in renewable energy. This will ensure that a more stable and predictable market for renewable energy technologies is developed in India.
India’s Renewable Energy Achievements and Global Standing
A round of applause for the initiatives taken by the government of India, which has made India a global leader in renewable energy. The country enjoys one of the largest sources of renewable energy capacity in the global context. This motivates India to be on the right path to achieving its ultimate goal. Additionally, India has reduced its carbon footprint noticeably due to this step, which in a way improved the environmental condition of the company. This has allowed India to create improved employment opportunities and offer jobs in the energy sector.
Permionics’ Contribution to Advancing Renewable Energy Solutions
India is going ahead in the journey of renewable energy, and so are we! Permionics is also getting inspired by the significant changes that India is making today in the sector of renewable energy. We have multiple projects in the pipeline which will take us towards a more sustainable and conscious future. Not only this but Permionics is already working with multiple clients to help them with renewable energy. It also aims to partner with government bodies to have a brighter future for India together.
The company has initiated solar wafer projects that produce solar panels to convert sunlight into electricity. The cutting-edge membrane systems at Permionics ensure that water used in solar wafer manufacturing meets stringent standards of purity. This helps the company to steadily achieve its goal of a more sustainable future.
Conclusion
Through this, it can be concluded that renewable energy sources are the only solution to the scarcity of energy sources. This not only brings a more environment-friendly solution but also fosters a sustainable future. India is also going ahead in the same direction and has become a leader in the global context in utilizing renewable energy sources. The innovative initiatives partnered with financial support have opened a lot of doors for India. Permionics has also taken inspiration from the Indian government which is why it is also improving the ongoing projects to welcome a brighter and better future.
