Leanna Byrne speaks to Sumant Sinha, the founder of ReNew, one of India's largest renewable energy companies about why he thinks green and clean energy will win out.

Sinha began his career in finance, working in New York and London, before walking away from the corporate world to make a bet on renewable energy. He founded his company in India, which is one of the world鈥檚 most polluted countries. It also imports around 85% fossil fuels.

Sinha says that moving as quickly as possible to clean energy will also help ensure the country鈥檚 energy security.
