India added 1,139.5 MW of wind power capacity in the second quarter (Q2) of the calendar year 2023, representing a 165% year-over-year increase, according to Mercom India Research. Installations grew 54% quarter-over-quarter from 737.85 MW in Q1 2023. The increase in installations was spurred by enabling policies by the government, such as the implementation of the Renewable Purchase Obligation trajectory until 2029-2030.
