Option 2 : 2 only

The correct answer is 2 only.

The country’s installed Renewable Energy (RE) capacity stands at 150.54 GW (solar: 48.55 GW, wind: 40.03 GW, Small hydro Power: 4.83, Bio-power: 10.62, Large Hydro: 46.51 GW) as of 30th November 2021 while its nuclear energy-based installed electricity capacity stands at 6.78 GW.
India has the 4^th largest wind power capacity in the world.
This brings the total non-fossil-based installed energy capacity to 157.32 GW which is 40.1% of the total installed electricity capacity of 392.01 GW.
India’s Bhadla Solar Park in Rajasthan is the largest solar power park in the world. Hence, Statement 1 is not correct.
Kerala’s Cochin International Airport Ltd (CIAL) is the first airport in the world that would be running fully on solar power. Hence, Statement 2 is correct.
Tamil Nadu Chief Minister, M K Stalin has inaugurated India’s largest floating solar power plant constructed at a cost of Rs 150.4 crores. Hence, Statement 3 is not correct.
The floating plant is established in Southern Petrochemicals Industries Corporation Limited (SPIC) factory at Thoothukudi in Tamil Nadu to provide clean energy. It aims to provide environmentally sustainable power generation and reduce carbon footprint.
