Abstract

The paper focuses on the targets set under India’s national solar mission and cumulative installed capacity of solar PV system. Analysis of the status of implementation of the solar mission reveals that the development in rooftop solar category has been extremely slow. A comparison of solar policy of five Indian states brings out the most effective policies adopted till date. The paper recommends an economic model for promoting rooftop solar PV system along with demand-side management.
