India Ends Clean Energy Subsidy, Raising Costs

India Ends Clean Energy Subsidy, Raising Costs

India has stopped giving money to help build solar and wind farms, which could make clean energy more expensive.

Starting Tuesday, companies building these farms will have to pay extra fees to send electricity across state lines.

The clean energy industry wanted the government to keep the subsidies to keep costs down.

Now, electricity prices might go up, and it might be harder for companies to make deals to sell their power.

Some states may decide to build their own solar and wind farms within their borders instead of buying from elsewhere.
