The report says India generated about 70 billion units of solar in 2021, an 18% increase over the previous year. In all, India generated about 1600 billion units of electricity in 2021.
That would mean that about 4.5% of all power generated in 2021 was solar.
If you thought 4.5% was small, consider these:
- In 2010, solar power contribution was practically zero
- In 2021, nuclear power produced about 45 billion units, about 3% - India started nuclear power generation way back in 1969!
- Wind power, which started growing in the mid-1980s, generated only about the same as solar power in 2021 - about 70 billion units.
