Meta Description: The Gujarat Hybrid Renewable Energy Park in India, targeting up to 30 GW of combined solar and wind capacity, is among the largest renewable projects in Asia. This article critically examines its design, investment case, grid-challenges, and sustainability implications. Project Overview & Scale The Gujarat Hybrid Renewable Energy Park (sometimes called the Khavda RE Park) in the Kutch district of Gujarat, India is a massive endeavour. Covering approximately 72,600 hectares of wasteland, the site has been designated for up to 30 GW of renewable power generation — with a hybrid mix of solar PV and wind. Dundar Law +2 DIYguru +2 By comparison to many large utility-scale projects in Asia, this is a mega-project in more than name: multiple gigawatts, investment in storage, large land area, integrated manufacturing and supply chain ecosystems. For example, the developer notes ~16 million homes could be powered and ~58 million t of CO₂ emissions avoided annually whe...

Meta Description: Explore the five largest renewable energy projects in Asia set for commissioning by 2026. From India and the Philippines to Vietnam and beyond, these mega-projects illustrate how Asia is transforming its energy mix and shaping the global clean-energy future. Introduction Asia is rapidly becoming the heartbeat of the global renewable-energy boom. As major economies race to meet climate targets and rising electricity demand, several mammoth clean-energy projects are expected to come online by 2026, repositioning Asia at the forefront of the energy transition. These top-tier projects not only reflect scale in gigawatts (GW), but also innovation in storage, hybrid systems, and grid integration. Below we analyse the Top 5 biggest renewable energy projects in Asia, evaluating scale, technology, timelines, and strategic implications for the region. 1. Gujarat Hybrid Renewable Energy Park (India) – ~30 GW The massive Gujarat Hybrid Renewable Energy Park (Khavda, Kutch d...

Meta Description: Wind energy in Asia is entering a new growth phase, led by China, India, Japan, and Vietnam. Explore the trends, policies, and challenges shaping Asia’s wind sector. Introduction Wind power is fast becoming the next frontier of Asia’s clean energy expansion, complementing the region’s solar dominance. As turbine technology advances and governments commit to net-zero targets, both onshore and offshore wind projects are gaining scale across the continent. However, success varies significantly by country — shaped by geography, grid infrastructure, and policy frameworks. China’s Unmatched Wind Energy Scale China is the global leader in wind power, accounting for more than half of the world’s newly installed capacity in 2024. Total capacity: Over 400 GW of onshore and offshore wind combined. Offshore wind: Rapid expansion in coastal provinces such as Jiangsu, Guangdong, and Fujian. Technology edge: China’s turbine manufacturers (e.g., Goldwind, MingYang) now compet...
