HYDERABAD: Driven by the twin objectives of reducing dependence on imported fossil fuels to check the outflow of foreign exchange and meeting its commitments to decarbonisation and sustainability, the Union Budget has laid emphasis on advancing green energy initiatives by proposing an additional `10,000 crore for the renewable energy sector. Union finance minister Nirmala Sitharaman stated that a substantial amount would be used to expand renewable energy infrastructure and thereby the capacity.
