India added 706.5 MW of wind energy capacity in Q3 2024, a 72% increase year-over-year from 411.5 MW in Q3 2023, according to Mercom India Research. The increased demand for wind energy by state distribution companies and other obligated entities to fulfill their renewable purchase obligations drove capacity additions in Q3. The capacity additions fell 8% quarter-over-quarter from 769.9 MW installed in Q2 due to delays in grid connectivity, limited availability of transmission infrastructure, land acquisition, and right-of-way issues.
