In India renewable energy has recently received great attention in the context of discussions on energy security and climate change. In the National Action Plan on Climate Change (NAPCC), a National Solar Mission (“Jawaharlal Nehru National Solar Mission”) was announced among eight National Missions. A goal of 22,000 MW of solar power is envisaged for 2022.
The goal is to ensure large-scale deployment of solar generated power for grid-connected as well as off-grid commercial energy services. The Solar Mission defines targets for solar collectors (water heaters), off-grid power systems (household systems like Solar Home Systems; mini-grids), and on-grid power (large green-field installations as well as roof-top PV). The Solar Mission will be implemented in three stages, with specific targets defined for the respective segments (see table below).
