New Delhi, June 26 (IANS) India generated $110 billion in green revenues in 2025, emerging as one of Asia’s fastest-growing green economies as the country’s clean energy and sustainability-related businesses continued to expand, according to a report.
A report by London Stock Exchange Group (LSEG) showed that India’s green revenues have grown at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 20 per cent over the past five years, which is higher than Asia’s average growth of 12 per cent and the global average of 10 per cent during the same period.
Despite accounting for only around 4 per cent of Asia’s total green revenues, India is steadily strengthening its position in several specialised segments of the green economy, it noted.
Moreover, India contributes nearly 87 per cent of Asia’s green revenues from biogas energy equipment and accounts for 75 per cent of the region’s revenues from advanced irrigation systems and devices.
These segments highlighted the country’s growing capabilities in areas such as sustainable agriculture, decentralised energy systems, waste-to-energy technologies and rural infrastructure.
In addition, Asia remained the world’s largest green revenue-generating region in 2025, contributing 47 per cent of global green revenues.
India remained among Asia’s leading destinations for clean energy investments.
The report has estimated that the nation attracted around $100 billion in clean energy investments, with nearly 83 per cent of power-sector capital expenditure directed towards renewable energy, energy storage, nuclear power and energy efficiency projects.
It also pointed out that coal continues to play a significant role in Asia’s energy mix, with Asian countries accounting for a large share of global coal demand.
The findings underline India’s rapidly expanding green economy, driven by strong growth in niche sectors even as the country continues to build its overall presence in Asia’s broader green revenue landscape, according to LSEG.
