Power Transition to Collaborate With Idam Infra for Future Energy Systems in India
In 2015, India increased target for renewable energy to 175 GW. While doing so, a target of 40GW was assigned to Rooftop Solar PV segment. The rooftop solar sector has been shackled with sluggish growth, with total installations reaching to only about 6 GW as of June 2020.
This slow growth in India’s rooftop solar sector segment can be attributed to regulatory hurdles, lack of uniform regulations, lack of mandatory notifications, state policies, high cost of financing, reluctance from DISCOMs to provide approvals, multiple approvals from multiple stakeholders, availability of net meters, no single window clearance, etc.. Mr Balawant Joshi, Founder & Managing Director, Idam Infrastructure Advisory Pvt. Ltd. a key implementing partner of The SUPRABHA_TA program, elucidates key challenges that hinder the growth of Rooftop Solar segment and lists out the solutions towards them in his blog.
