35 lac jobs: India could be the job hub for Renewable Energy

By 2030, the renewable energy industry has the potential to employ approximately 3.5 million people, with the majority of these new jobs coming from small-scale renewable energy projects. 

In contrast to utility or large-scale projects like solar parks, the majority of new jobs would be created by small-scale renewable energy projects like rooftop solar and mini and micro-grid systems, according to the study "India's Expanding Clean Energy Workforce."

Since renewable energy is becoming more affordable than conventional energy sources, this will also assist the nation in reducing its reliance on oil imports and provide economic benefits.

There are currently approximately 700,000 renewable energy jobs in India. 

Because renewable energy is anticipated to cost less than traditional methods of electricity production, India will be less dependent on fossil fuels and will have a greater economic impact. India is quickly moving toward going green in its steel industry. India currently ranks fourth in terms of installed renewable energy capacity.
