on implementation of renewable energy resources in India. A detailed analysis of the renewable energy sector shows there are less policies and investments in the innovation of this energy. India has limited energy resources and one day it will only depend on renewable energy resources. For this‚ Indian government should implement several measures like sustainable planning; reasonable budget etc. so that renewable energy sources optimally utilized and conserves natural resources for future generation
