Noida, UP -- (SBWire) -- 02/25/2014 --Driven by country’s rapidly rising primary energy and electricity needs, overdependence on coal for electricity generation, and costly oil and gas imports; India is poised to become a potentially global leader in PV technology. Above all, India’s endowment with plentiful irradiation makes PV lucrative to the nation’s energy strategy. Moreover, the market potential for captive power plants, telecom towers, and rural electrification has created an off-grid solar market in India, which is forecasted to install more than 1 GW per year by 2016.

Further, country’s installed capacity for solar power generation has increased tremendously during the last few years owing to growing cost of conventional energy and declining cost of solar power. With this rising electricity demand, high irradiation levels, favorable government policies, and huge investments, the cumulative solar PV-installed capacity in India is projected to grow at a CAGR of 31.5% during 2012-2016.
