India is targeting 500 GW of non-fossil power generation by the end of the decade with having 152.9 GW of renewable capacity installed in February 2022, generating the fourth-largest wind sector globally, Bloomberg NEF estimates. Firetrace International, a provider of fire suppression technology, has opened facilities in India and China, bringing its fire safety support to these rapidly expanding renewable energy markets.Ĭhina is targeting 1200 GW of wind and solar energy by the end of 2030, with a current capacity of 687GW at the end of 2021, according to Bloomberg New Energy Finance, while also hosting seven of the top 10 wind turbine manufacturers in the world. ![]()
