Whales, Windmills & Other Wild Energy Claims

2023: "

Windmills are driving whales crazy"…and causing deaths “in numbers never seen before”

Repeating the claim in 2025:

.. offshore wind farms were linked to increased whale strandings,

Latest rant in Scotland (2025):
During a meeting next to European Commission President von der Leyen, Trump declared

windmills are “killing us”—claiming they blight the landscape and harm marine life

Truth Social meltdown (August 19, 2025):
Trump posted an all-caps rant:

windmills cause energy price spikes, electricity shortages, environmental harm—including whale and bird deaths—and cance

So completely tangential to the point being made in that article I posted.

The missing part of these statistics is the huge "captive power" segment, where renewables and nukular (SMR) can play a major and accelerated role. This intersects the green hydrogen mission strongly.

Taza khabar: India signs pact with Japan for low carbon technologies

Recent accord between India and Japan marks a significant strengthening of bilateral climate collaboration. It offers India access to advanced low-carbon technologies and financing, while providing Japan a credible pathway to offset its emissions—benefiting both countries and bolstering global climate action.


Among other things, JCM offers a mechanism to channel Japanese investment, projects, and policy alignment towards India’s green hydrogen landscape too. Already underway are exports, power plant pilots, and knowledge exchanges—setting the stage for deeper collaboration.

Here is one link for one kind of project : Japan to set up green hydrogen production centre

Summarizing current news from various sources:

India is currently making headlines with ambitious and concrete steps across its green energy and climate policy landscape, driven primarily by major leaps in solar power and an aggressive push into green hydrogen.  

Summary of the some of the interesting current news..

1. The Solar Surge: India Achieves Key Targets Ahead of Schedule
The most significant recent news is India's unprecedented progress in renewable energy deployment:  

Non-Fossil Capacity Milestone: India has officially surpassed 50% of its total installed electricity capacity from non-fossil fuel sources (including solar, wind, and hydro). This achievement met a key conditional commitment from its Nationally Determined Contributions (NDCs) for the Paris Agreement five years ahead of the 2030 deadline.  

Global Rank: India is now the world's third-largest solar energy producer, behind only China and the US, demonstrating the scale of its deployment.  

Rooftop Revolution: The PM Surya Ghar Muft Bijli Yojana (rooftop solar scheme) has driven a massive expansion in household solar. Rooftop solar installations doubled in Fiscal Year 2023–24, with cumulative capacity reaching 22 GW.  

Manufacturing Boom: To support this growth, India's solar module manufacturing capacity nearly doubled in a single year (FY 2024–25), accelerating the "Make in India" initiative for the clean energy sector.  

2. The Green Hydrogen Pivot: Becoming a Global Hub
India's National Green Hydrogen Mission is the current focal point for advanced "climate control" technology and industrial decarbonization.  

Massive Ambition: The goal is to achieve 5 million metric tonnes (MMT) of annual Green Hydrogen production by 2030, establishing India as a leading global production and export hub.  

Tenders and Tariffs: The sector is moving from pilot projects to commercialization. Recent news includes major tenders for hydrogen production facilities and the discovery of a benchmark tariff (around ₹397/kg at the Indian Oil Panipat Refinery project) that will shape the economics of future projects.  

Global Partnerships: India is forging crucial international alliances, such as one with the Port of Rotterdam in Europe, to establish a supply chain capable of exporting up to one million tonnes of hydrogen-fuel derivatives annually, positioning India in the global clean energy market.  

Policy Innovation: To ensure credibility, the government recently introduced the Green Hydrogen Certification Scheme (GHCI), which sets a standard defining hydrogen as "green" if its lifecycle emissions are kept below 2 kg of CO₂e per kg of hydrogen produced.

The Solar Surge: India’s Bold Leap Toward a Net Zero Future
Posted On: 19 AUG 2025 5:25PM
"Green Future, Net Zero" aren't just fancy words but reflect India's need and commitment, making it the best destination for investment and innovation in renewable energy.[1]

A new push to maximize hydropower generation using the Brahmaputra basin:

This is significant (42 GW by 2035, and then additional 68 GW after that)...total 110 GW.

At the same time, there is some new high-efficiency koila capacity being built: https://www.powermag.com/india-invests- ... ectricity/

As discussed earlier in the thread, the sarkar is ensuring power supply needed to continue rapid economic growth while renewables take hold. I fully expect koila to add new capacity (and also retire old plants) until 2035 or so. It may sound counter-intuitive, but for a growing economy like Bharat, koila is a critical transitional resource, especially since Bharat has an abundance of it. This will greatly help the renewable energy transition under a sarkar that has a clear vision, plan, and purposeful execution.

"Beyond the numbers: The untold costs of India's ethanol breakthrough
India's ethanol blending program achieved 20% blending in petrol five years ahead of schedule, driving major foreign exchange savings, farmer payouts, and emission cuts, while facing challenges around water use, food security, and vehicle impacts."

Hi All, A friend is involved in a e-waste recycling business in south India. We are not focusing on any rare earth or critical minerals but on copper and aluminum. The through put is about 20-30MT per month. Struggling to find honest & GST complaint buyers. Any leads or guidance any what value added alloys or items could help enter niche markets would be much appreciated. Thanks
