When it comes to combating climate change and global warming, the best course of action is to promote the use of renewable energy sources (RESs) and reduce reliance on fossil fuels. In this regard, most nations have resolved to boost the use of solar photovoltaics (PV) and wind turbines (WTs) to generate clean green energy and curb carbon emissions. India is actively contributing to the international change of the energy sector. When it comes to renewable energy and encouraging the use of electric vehicles, India is among the top five countries in the world. There has been a recent push to increase the world's renewable energy generation capacity to 450 GW by 2030, up from its current level of around 400 GW. Getting India's total generation beyond 60%using the low-carbon energy sources is encouraged because it will help the country meet its larger climate goals and push it above the amount agreed upon in the Paris Agreement. Economic growth, increased energy security, and expanding access to energy for the rural population are only a few of the goals, roles, and responsibilities of government. As part of India's progress toward modernization, this paper details a number of related efforts, policy shifts, technical and economic hurdles, and regulatory rules for rolling out renewables and EVs.

Renewable Energy resources contribution is increasing in power generation because of fast depletion of fossil fuels. Solar power generation is one of the major sources of renewable energy resources in tropical countries like India. But solar power generation is facing the challenge of continuous and reliable power supply because of its infrequent nature. Hence reliability evaluation of Photovoltaic (PV) system has become a demanding research area. The impact of unreliable power supply can be improved by using energy storage system viz. battery. In this paper, power generation probability of PV system is obtained using Monte Carlo Simulation (MCS) technique and reliability of PV system with and without battery storage system is evaluated by considering failure rate and repair time for every component in the PV system which provide accurate results. The proposed methodology was implemented on K L E F 161.72 kW PV power plant connected to a load of 160 kW. The proposed methodology was implemented on K L E F 161.72 kW PV power plant connected to a load of 160 kW, the results obtained are presented and are analyzed. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
