India stayed away from the UK-led accord on stopping deforestation and declined to ratify the US and EU's "Global Methane Pledge," which aims to reduce global methane emissions by 30% over 2020 levels by 2030. The primary gas driving climate change, CO2, has a lifetime of 100–1,000 years, according to the 6th Assessment Report of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change.
According to an ANI report, over the last three years, the nation's solar capacity has expanded by nearly 91%. At the conclusion of the three following years, 2019–20, 2020–21, and 2021–22, respectively, the total solar energy capacity was 34,627, 40,085, and 53,996 megawatts.

In addition, in response to a query about whether the government has established any goals to boost solar capacity across the nation, the minister stated, "The Government has set a target to achieve 500 GW of installed capacity from non-fossil fuels by 2030, in line with the Hon'ble Prime Minister's announcement at CoP-26."
In total, 1098 solar panels have been installed by the Gurugram-based facilities management business Enviro India on its commercial and residential buildings throughout Delhi-NCR. By generating 4,941-kilowatt peak (kWp) units of energy each day, the effort has drastically reduced the expenditures associated with energy usage. Enviro India has contributed more than INR 50 million (mn) to numerous projects spread across several Indian cities. The company intends to purchase batteries and solar panels with the most recent technology from nations like Taiwan and Germany. Solar energy is a practical approach to lessen dependency on fossil fuels and achieve self-sufficiency as the globe progresses toward sustainable energy sources. As India works to replace fossil fuels with renewable energy, this Enviro India effort will show to be quite successful.
