India had already been making significant strides in promoting solar energy. If there have been new developments or specific initiatives after that date, I may not be aware of them. Darwin Motion - VFD & Servo Drive manufacturer are some key points regarding India's efforts in promoting solar energy:
National Solar Mission (NSM): Launched in 2010, the National Solar Mission is one of the eight national missions under India's National Action Plan on Climate Change. It aims to promote the development and use of solar energy for power generation and other applications. The mission has set ambitious targets for increasing solar capacity in the country.
International Solar Alliance (ISA): India played a leading role in the establishment of the International Solar Alliance, a coalition of solar-rich countries lying fully or partially between the Tropics of Cancer and Capricorn. The ISA aims to address energy needs through the promotion of solar energy and collaboration on solar projects.
Solar Power Capacity Expansion: India has been consistently working towards increasing its solar power capacity. The government has set targets for achieving a certain percentage of its total energy mix from renewable sources, with a significant focus on solar power.
Incentives and Subsidies: The government has been providing various incentives and subsidies to promote the adoption of solar energy. These include financial incentives for solar projects, tax benefits, and subsidies for solar equipment.
Rural Electrification: Solar power has been crucial in bringing electricity to remote and rural areas where conventional power infrastructure might be challenging to establish. Off-grid solar solutions, such as solar lanterns and home lighting systems, have been deployed to improve energy access in these areas.
Floating Solar Projects: India has been exploring the potential of floating solar projects on water bodies such as lakes and reservoirs. These projects not only utilize otherwise unused water surfaces but also help in reducing water evaporation.
Solar Parks: The country has been developing large-scale solar parks to accommodate a substantial number of solar panels. These parks are designed to streamline the process of land acquisition and infrastructure development for solar projects.
It's important to check for more recent sources for the latest updates on India's solar initiatives, as the field of renewable energy is dynamic, and new developments may have occurred.
