5. INTRODUCTION TO SOLAR ENERGY
 Solar power in
India is a fast growing
industry.
 India quadrupled its
solar-generation
capacity from 2.65 GW
on 26 May 2014 to
12.289 GW on 31
March 2017.

9. JAWAHARLAL NEHRU NATIONAL SOLAR MISSION
 Also known as the National Solar Mission,
is an initiative of the Government of India and
State Governments to promote solar power.
 The program was inaugurated by
former Prime Minister Manmohan Singh on
11 January 2010 with a target of 20GW by
2022 which was later increased to 100 GW
by the Narendra Modi government in the
2015 Union budget of India.

10. RURAL ELECTRIFICATION RATE
 In 2015, 55 % of
all rural
households had
access to
electricity, and
85% of rural
households
depended on solid
fuel for cooking.

11. COUNTINUOUS…..
 By the end of 2015 ,one Million solar
lanterns were sold in the country, 1,18,700
solar home lighting systems were installed
and 46,655 solar street lighting installations
were provided under a national program; just
over 1.4 million solar cookers were
distributed in India.
