India plans for 200GW of solar electricity by 2050

Developing countries like India and China are among the most polluting nations of the world. The only thing that can brighten these nations is the use of renewable energy at a scale no one has ever thought of before. Being the seventh largest country of the world, India receives about 5,000 trillion KWhs of solar energy each day, which is put to good use, can well provide more electricity than the country actually requires. India’s climate change plan is about to take a leap, with the developm
