Government policies and target

India currently suffers from a major shortage of electricity generation capacity, even though it is the world’s fourth largest energy consumer after United States, China and Russia. Around 562% of India’s installed electricity capacity is met by coal fired plants. Solar power being renewable and cleanest source of energy, it holds the key for sustainable economic development. For “Make in India” campaign to be successful, we have to look beyond conventional sources of energy.

Here are some key government policies and target:

  • To install 100 GW by 2022
  • Power to all citizens by 2019
  • RBI guidelines to add renewable sector as priority sector in banks.
  • Setting up dedicated transmission corridors.
  • Low cost financing support from bilateral and multilateral agencies.
  • Proposed Amendments in Electricity Act including open access reforms and enhancement of RPOs(Renewable Purchase Obligation).

There are lots of factors which make the solar the most favourable of all renewable sources.

  • High Solar insolation in India
  • Solar energy is easily accessible and available in abundance
  • Solar energy is free of cost
  • Pollution free
  • Most environmental friendly renewable source of power
  • Plummeting price of solar panels
