Why IRES 2027

The room where India's energy future gets built.

India's Renewable Energy Summit 2027 (IRES) is a premier national platform convening the architects of the global clean energy transition.

As India advances toward its 500 GW renewable capacity target and assumes a leading voice in international climate diplomacy, IRES 2027 brings policymakers, ministers, global delegations, investors and technology innovators together under one roof to align on policy, capital and innovation at the scale this decade demands.

“Positioning India as the architect of the global clean energy transition, driving policy consensus, technology innovation and investment mobilisation at scale.”

Why this summit matters

The India story.

Five ideas frame every conversation at IRES 2027.

  1. 01

    Self-reliance first

    Indigenously developed solar, wind and hydro capacity is cutting import dependency and strengthening national energy security.

  2. 02

    500 GW by 2030

    The world's most ambitious renewable energy target. Already past 200 GW, India is on track to set a global precedent for rapid clean energy scaling.

  3. 03

    South-South leadership

    India exports clean energy expertise, technology and capital to 60+ developing nations through ISA, OSOWOG and bilateral green energy corridors.

  4. 04

    Innovation ecosystem

    From green hydrogen to grid-scale storage, India is building next-generation clean technology and 10 million green jobs by 2030.

  5. 05

    Climate justice champion

    India advocates for equitable climate finance, so developing nations are not penalised for historical emissions they did not cause.

By the numbers

India's energy landscape, today.

Scale is not a future ambition. It is already taking shape across the country.
