In a resounding call to action, Prime Minister Narendra Modi urged international investors to dive into India’s dynamic power sector during the ‘India Electricity Summit 2026’ in New Delhi. Delivered via a special message on the summit’s opening day by Power Secretary Pankaj Agarwal, Modi’s words painted a vivid picture of opportunities in generation, investment, innovation, and scaling up.
Positioned as a powerhouse economy, India is navigating a transformative phase in its energy narrative. PM Modi invited the world: ‘Come build in India, innovate here, invest boldly, and advance together.’ He anticipates the summit sparking deep conversations and solid alliances that will energize national development.
Bringing together power and energy stakeholders, the summit promises vibrant exchanges, collaborative synergies, and a unified strategy for industry evolution. It’s a strategic step toward sustainable growth, enhanced international ties, and realizing a developed India by 2047.
PM Modi detailed ongoing efforts to fortify energy infrastructure and ensure universal reliable power supply. Boasting over 50% non-fossil capacity already, India eyes 500 GW by 2030. The visionary ‘One Sun, One World, One Grid’ initiative exemplifies India’s push for worldwide energy harmony.
With resilient supply chains, booming battery production, green employment surges, and progressive policies, India is solidifying its role as a trusted energy ally. Emerging nuclear prospects via ‘Peace Act 2025’ and rooftop solar push through ‘PM Surya Ghar’ scheme are accelerating clean energy transitions.
Distribution sector overhauls have dramatically reduced losses and improved finances, rendering it a magnet for investments. This summit isn’t just an event—it’s a launchpad for India’s ascent as a global energy leader, beckoning investors to be part of the revolution.
