- Ministry of Non Conventional Energy Sources is actively promoting generation of renewable energy sources in India. Presently India is generating 1702 MW of renewable wind energy, 1463 MW of Small Hydro, 468 MW of Biomass, 53 MW of Biomass Gasifiers, 107 MW of Solar and 25 MW from Municipal wastes. Jatropha farming is being promoted in a very big way, which is useful for generating bio-diesel. In turn this bio-diesel can be used to generate thermal power in a major way.
