“The United States is pleased to work with India. The United States is working to help India provide funding and technology to advance its efforts,” Kerry said.
The US envoy pointed out that India had previously set a target of reaching 450 GW (now 500 GW) of installed renewable energy capacity by 2030.

“India has made a very important commitment to deploy 450 GW of renewable energy by 2030. The Prime Minister of India has personally made this commitment… If India achieves this, India will be a major contributor to limiting global warming to 1.5 degrees Celsius,” Kerry told Times Now.
Modi last year raised the non-fossil power capacity target from 450 gigawatts to 500 GW by 2030. India will have about 450 GW of solar and wind power, while 70 to 100 GW will come from hydroelectric plants.
“The United States is confident that India has the capability to do this,” he said, adding that India’s role in climate change was critical.
