Reports indicate that India's coal and natural gas power generation experienced the largest year-over-year decline in over three decades in May 2025. According to Michael Barard of Clean Technica, this steep reduction, which excludes the anomalies caused by the COVID-19 pandemic, signals a fundamental transformation. The decline is attributed to economic slowdowns, rapid growth in renewable energy projects, especially solar and wind, and increasingly competitive prices for these clean energy sources.
