The theme of Earth Day 2026 - ‘Our Power, Our Planet’ - reminds us that climate progress is powered by collective action. We, at ReNew, also believe that climate action is most effective when it is co-created.

What ‘Our Power, Our Planet’ means to ReNew

For ReNew, “Our Power, Our Planet” is about the power of clean energy, the power of technology and innovation, and the power of people working together to build a low-carbon future. Over the past 15 years, the dedication of our people and the trust of our partners, customers, communities, and stakeholders have together been the foundation of everything we have achieved.

This year, as the world comes together around the 2026 theme, we are renewing our focus on one of the planet’s most precious shared resources - water.

Why Water Matters

Water is life. It supports communities, agriculture, industry, and the digital infrastructure that powers our digital world. Yet it is finite, shared and under growing pressure. Protecting it is not optional – it is essential to sustain our world. This Earth Day, we remind ourselves of this responsibility and strengthen our resolve to take action for this precious resource of our planet.

ReNew's Efforts To Save Water
Background

Starting at Home At ReNew, change starts from within. Across 150+ sites, we clean thousands of solar panels without using water, helping save 436,000 cubic metres of water last year — a 51% increase over the previous year. Every drop of water we do use is treated, recycled, and reused

Background

Going Further, With communities Our commitment extends beyond our sites. Working alongside communities, we have supported the restoration of 120 taankas, 18 ponds, and 10 lakes, helping revive traditional water systems and strengthen local resilience

Frequently Asked Questions

Earth Day, observed every year on 22 April, is a global movement focused on environmental protection and climate action. Celebrated across more than 190 countries, including India, it brings together governments, businesses, communities and individuals to promote sustainability, reduce carbon emissions, and protect the planet for future generations.

Earth Day highlights the urgency of addressing climate change and accelerating the shift to cleaner sources of energy. In India, where energy demand continues to grow, it underscores the need to scale renewable energy, improve efficiency, and adopt more sustainable practices across sectors. For companies such as ReNew, it is also an opportunity to reflect on progress, strengthen ongoing efforts, and engage with stakeholders working towards a more sustainable energy system.

Renewable energy companies play an important role in reducing emissions by expanding access to clean power such as solar and wind. As part of this ecosystem, ReNew develops and operates renewable energy projects that support India’s transition to a lower-carbon future. Alongside energy generation, the focus extends to responsible resource use, biodiversity considerations, and community-led initiatives in and around areas of operation.

Earth Day is marked through a range of initiatives such as environmental awareness programmes, sustainability workshops, volunteering efforts, and campaigns that promote responsible consumption. These activities aim to encourage participation and build long-term behavioural change at both individual and community levels.

Individuals and organisations can contribute by adopting sustainable practices in everyday life such as conserving energy and water, reducing waste, and supporting clean energy solutions. Collective action across communities, businesses and institutions plays an important role in advancing sustainability and enabling a lower-carbon future.
