Map solar power in india.

To make the above maps the multiyear solar irradiance was calculated from the nsrdb. The indian government had an initial target of 20 gw capacity for 2022 which was achieved four years ahead of schedule. And it s trying to ensure that the power comes from clean and renewable sources. Solar power in india is a fast developing industry.

India is trying to bring electricity to hundreds of millions of its citizens who live off the grid. The country s solar installed capacity was 35 122 mw as of 30 june 2020. 1 pvout photovoltaic power potential kwh kwp 2 ghi global horizontal irradiation kwh m2 3 dif diffuse horizontal irradiation kwh m2 4 gti global irradiation for optimally tilted surface kwh m2 5 opta optimum tilt to maximize yearly yield 6.

These derived data sets are provided below as geospatial rasters. Map highlights the power grid regions of india with state and international boundaries. These states are also the top five states in india with highest wind electricity generation. In 2015 the target was raised to 100 gw of solar capacity.

India is one of the few country in the world with highest solar electricity production per watt installed solar power in india is the fastest growing industry and continuing to develop the electricity with solar power projects in tamil nadu rajasthan gujarat and maharashtra. Map showing the location of solar power projects in india. India has the lowest capital cost per mw globally of installing solar power plants.
