Explanation:

None of the above

India has not committed to eliminating fossil fuel-derived energy by the end of 2030. While India has set ambitious renewable energy targets, it has not committed to completely eliminating fossil fuel-derived energy by a specific date.

India has committed to reducing its emission intensity, but the statement is not accurate. The actual commitment is to reduce the emission intensity of its GDP by 33-35% by 2030 from 2005 levels, not one-third of pre-industrial levels.

India is indeed one of the largest producers of wind energy in Asia, but the statement is not accurate in stating that it is the largest.

Therefore, none of the given statements is correct.
