Development of distributed solar photovoltaic energy market in India

摘要

India has gargantuan renewable energy sources. The ministry of new and renewable energy, Government of India has adopted rigorous process of implementation of number of encouraging renewable energy programs. A road map has been provided in various policies to shore up the deployment of renewable energy across the country. The distributed solar photovoltaic (SPV) power plants are envisaged to have record growth in India owing to due technology diligence, reducing costs and supportive government policies in renewable rich states. Distributed SPV will gradually become a vital component of energy mix of country. The small gestation period of these plants would help to meet power shortages and improve the grid situation. The issues and challenges of connectivity of distributed energy sources into grid are being addressed by adopting suitable technologies and policies framework. The paper provides the comprehensive study of development of SPV power plants in India.
