India Curtailed 300 GWh of Clean Energy in Q1 as Grid Lags Solar Build

India's electricity grid is expanding at a slower pace than the boom in renewable energy installations, leading to increased share of clean energy curtailments and threatening to slow the solar and wind boom in the world's most populous country. Grid and transmission constraints accounted for nearly two-thirds of all renewable energy curtailment at 300 gigawatt-hours (GWh) in the first quarter of the year, clean energy think tank Ember said in a report on Tuesday. “This growing mismatch between fast-moving solar projects and slower-moving…
