Uttarakhand is making significant strides in harnessing renewable energy, leveraging its abundant natural resources to meet growing energy demands sustainably Join industry leaders, innovators, and policymakers at the Renewable & Hydro Energy Expo 2026, a premier event showcasing the latest advancements in clean energy technologies. This dynamic expo brings together the global energy community to explore solutions that drive sustainability, reduce carbon emissions, and promote green innovation. Discover cutting-edge products, attend expert-led seminars, and network with professionals shaping the future of renewable and hydroelectric power. From solar and wind to hydro and emerging storage systems, this event is a hub for clean energy transformation.

Solar Energy Initiatives: Under the Uttarakhand Solar Energy Policy 2023, the state aims to achieve 2,500 MW of solar energy capacity by 2027. This includes 1,100 MW for utility-scale projects, 750 MW for domestic use, and 350 MW for institutional applications. As of early 2025, 575 MW of solar projects have been approved, with 235 MW currently under development. 3The Mukhyamantri Solar Swarojgar Yojana has been launched to promote solar entrepreneurship among rural youth, fostering employment and sustainable energy practices.

Hydropower Development: The state is capitalising on its riverine topography to develop hydropower projects. Notably, the Tapovan Vishnugad Hydropower Plant in Chamoli District is a 520 MW run-of-river project expected to generate approximately 2,558 GWh annually. The Kishau Dam, a 660 MW hydroelectric project on the Tons River, is under construction and slated for completion by 2028.

Wind Power Development: The National Institute of Wind Energy (NIWE) estimates Uttarakhand’s installable wind power potential at approximately 161 MW at an 80-meter hub height . While this is modest compared to other states, it presents opportunities for localized, off-grid, and hybrid renewable energy solutions. The Bachelikhal Wind Power Project in Tehri Garhwal district is Uttarakhand’s first wind energy initiative, with a proposed capacity of 2 MW. Currently in the conceptualization phase, this project is overseen by the Uttarakhand Renewable Energy Development Agency (UREDA) In 2017, Dehradun witnessed the establishment of its first wind-solar hybrid charging station. This facility, set up by local entrepreneurs, generates 4–5 units of electricity daily, sufficient to charge over 150 smartphones

Community and Infrastructure Initiatives: The state government has approved the installation of 500 solar-powered streetlights in disaster-prone and rural areas, enhancing safety and promoting renewable energy usage at the community level. Districts like Tehri Garhwal and Uttarkashi are leading in the adoption of distributed solar energy projects, with numerous installations contributing to local energy needs.
