India's five climate commitments

🎯Net-zero emissions by 2070
500 GW non-fossil energy capacity by 2030
☀️50% energy from renewable sources by 2030
📉Reduce projected emissions by 1 billion tonnes by 2030
🏭Reduce carbon intensity 45% by 2030 (from 2005 baseline)

Progress: India achieved 50%+ non-fossil installed capacity in 2024—five years ahead of target. However, coal still provides ~75% of actual generation.
