India's March to Clean Energy
In August 2022, India submitted its targets to the UN Framework Convention on Climate Change: to reduce emissions intensity by 45% by 2030 (compared to 2005 levels) and to achieve 50% of cumulative electric power capacity from non-fossil fuel sources by 2030. These targets form part of the country's Nationally Determined Contributions (NDCs) under the Paris Agreement.
In addition, the country has raised its target for installed non-fossil energy capacity to 500 GW by 2030, up from 175 GW of renewable energy by 2022. According to the Union Ministry of Power, this aligns with the 50% non-fossil energy target pledged under the NDCs. In other words, India aims to have 50% of its energy infrastructure powered by clean sources by the end of this decade, gradually displacing coal-based power plants as the primary energy driver.
17
The official government estimate of how India's energy generation profile will evolve through to 2030 is as follows:
Steady Progress Towards Clean Future
The share of fossil fuels in total installed capacity is projected to decrease to 36% by 2030, down from the current 55%. Meanwhile, the share of new renewables is expected to increase to 55%, up from 33%.

reports: ** Report on Optimal Generation mix 2030 version 2.0. April 2023, CEA
18
In 2023, the Central Electricity Authority (CEA) updated its projections for the country's optimal energy mix by 2030. It stated that energy demand will rise to 2,440 billion units (BU) by 2030, up from 1,255 BU in 2022. Meeting this demand will require an installed capacity of 777 GW, with the majority of growth expected to come from new renewable sources.
According to the data, by the end of this decade, India will undergo a significant shift in its energy generation mix. The targeted 500 GW of non-fossil energy capacity is expected to supply 44% of the country's electricity demand.
As of March 2024, fossil fuels-coal, gas, and lignite- accounted for 54% of the installed capacity but were generating 77% of the electricity. While fossil fuel-powered electricity will not disappear under the new plan, its share in total electricity generation is projected to decline to 56% by 2030. The major change will come from new renewables, which currently generate around 13% of electricity but are expected to contribute up to 32% by the end of the decade.
Data Centres Adoption of Renewable Energy
India's data centre industry is experiencing rapid expansion, driven by the nation's growing digital economy and increased internet usage. This growth has led to a significant rise in energy consumption, prompting data center operators to seek sustainable solutions to mitigate environmental impact and operational costs. Consequently, there is a concerted effort to adopt renewable energy sources, such as solar, wind, hydrogen, and nuclear, to power these facilities.
The Indian government has outlined an ambitious roadmap to accelerate renewable energy adoption, targeting 500 GW of non-fossil fuel capacity by 2030. This includes plans to add 250 GW of renewable energy capacity over the next five years, with annual bids of 50 GW, incorporating at least 10 GW of wind power each year. The government is also prioritizing the development of green hydrogen, having approved a USD 2.11 Billion incentive plan to boost domestic production and aiming for an annual output of 5 million tonnes by 2030. Additionally, the 2025 Union Budget introduced the Nuclear Energy Mission for Viksit Bharat, with a goal to expand nuclear capacity to 100 GW by 2047 and develop at least five indigenously designed Small Modular Reactors by 2033.
Despite these promising initiatives, significant challenges remain in the transition to renewable energy. The intermittent nature of sources like solar and wind raises reliability concerns, particularly for data centers that demand uninterrupted power supply. Additionally, regulatory barriers limit the ability to store excess energy generated during peak periods for use during shortfalls. Overcoming these hurdles will require substantial investment in energy storage technologies and the creation of a more adaptive and resilient power grid capable of managing the variability of renewable sources. While green hydrogen offers a compelling alternative, its adoption remains in the early stages and will depend on continued research,
Corporate Overview
development, and infrastructure advancement before it becomes a viable mainstream energy solution for data centers.
Looking ahead, India's roadmap for data centres emphasizes both sustainability and resilience. The government's strategy includes strengthening power transmission infrastructure to support renewable energy projects and integrating advanced technologies to enhance energy efficiency. Public-private collaborations are expected to play a pivotal role in achieving these goals, ensuring that India's data centres can meet rising digital demands while advancing environmental objectives. The focus on diversifying energy sources-including solar, wind, hydrogen, and nuclear-underscores a comprehensive approach to building a sustainable and reliable energy ecosystem for the country's growing data centre industry.

Sustainability Measures
Sustainability has been a nearly two-decade journey at Sify, beginning with the integration of wind & Solar power into our energy mix. As of now, over 100 MW of green power has been commissioned for operations.
Sify Infinit Spaces began its renewable energy transition in 2021 with the integration of clean energy, bringing 99 MW online from a contracted total of 231 MW. Recently, an additional 31 MW was added, with a further 44 MW currently under development.
In Phase I, Sify Infinit Spaces has implemented the following measures:
A customized dashboard has been developed for the first cluster of 3 data centers.
Annual Report 2024-25
Real time data about solar and wind generation has been integrated into this dashboard on a continuous basis.
Image below shows the complete overview of the dashboard.
This real-time data provides Sify Infinit Spaces with detailed insights into power consumption from various sources, enabling engineers to adjust the type of energy used based on incoming data traffic or processing volume. While not claiming to be unique, the dashboard's granularity allows SISL to monitor real-time generation, total renewable energy generated to date, and cumulative carbon emission savings from both solar and wind sources.
If there is reduced generation from a solar or wind plant, the dashboard also displays the amount of power currently being drawn from the state grid to meet total energy demand. In the event of data errors or generation outages, the software triggers alerts to enable prompt action and an immediate switch to alternative energy sources.
