India, May 14 -- India aims to achieve 500 gigawatts (GW) of installed electricity generation capacity from non-fossil sources by 2030, necessitating more than a doubling of the non-fossil capacity installed as of late 2024. Most of this growth is planned from renewable energy (RE), specifically solar and wind. This non-fossil capacity target surpasses India's commitment for 50% of its electric power installed capacity to derive from non-fossil fuel-based energy, as part of its Nationally Determined Contribution (NDC) to the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC). This NDC target is based on capacity, and an important question is: what does it mean in energy terms? In this paper, we translate energy and capacity an...
