Introduction
The development of renewable energy (RE) is necessary for the sustainable development of any country due to rising population, growing economy, changing lifestyles, depleting fossil fuel level, climbing fossil fuel prices across the world and more recently pressure for reduction emission level.

Problem Areas
Solar Power is costly and suffers from supply shortfall
Rs 9.30-12.40 Rs 1.50-3.30
Non-Solar sources of energy such as wind have few takers, hence hindering the returns of already established projects
Rs 3.37-3.56 Rs 1.50-3.30

Problem Areas
Installed: 6548 MW
There are Immense Opportunities in this sector and India has capability of becoming Renewable Energy Superpower but due to lack of proper policy, initiative it is not been utilized at it full
potential.
Artificial Ethanol should be made from biological material such as sugar cane.
