The draft solar policy released by Karnataka government for 2011-2016. The state government aims to install 40 MW of solar power generation capacity every year between FY12 and FY16. This capacity includes the generation capacity selected under the first and second phases of the Jawaharlal Nehru National Solar Mission.

The Rajasthan State will promote setting up of solar power projects. The total capacity under this category will be distributed equally between SPV and solar concentrating thermal power plants. Rajasthan has come up with an new Solar Energy Policy, named as, Rajasthan Solar Policy 2011. The State of Rajasthan receives maximum solar radiation intensity in India with very low average rainfall.

As renewable energy technologies move to the forefront, the energy sphere in the 21st century is set for a major overhaul. Worldwide, studies predict that solar and wind energy will address more than 60% of the future energy needs.

This report provides information to relevant stakeholders on the importance of developing the solar energy sector in Asia and the Pacific, investment opportunities and challenges in the sector, and the approach adopted by the Asia Solar Energy Initiative to facilitate the rapid deployment of solar energy applications in the region

 

This article reports a comparative analysis of the thrust in solar photovoltaic (PV) research during 1981–1988 and 2001–2008. Global solar PV literature
in the latter period recorded a 4.5-fold increase over those in 1981–1988.

This report represents a full decade of Clean Edge data and trends analysis. This special anniversary edition looks at the past 10 years of clean-energy activity in the U.S. and abroad.

This draft solar policy 2010 for Rajasthan released by RREC is aimed at developing a global hub of solar power of 10,000 MW- 12,000 MW capacity in the next 10-12 years to meet increasing energy needs of the state and India & contribute to ecological security too.

The guidelines for off-grid and roof-top solar applications under Jawaharlal Nehru National solar Mission launched by Union New & Non Renewable resources minister Dr. Fahrooq Abdulla.

The objectives of this guidelines are: To promote off-grid applications of solar energy (both SPV and Solar Thermal) for meeting the targets set in the Jawaharlal Nehru National Solar Mission for Phase-I; To create awareness and demonstrate effective and innovative use of Solar systems for individual/ community/ institutional/ industrial applications; To encourage innovation in addressing market

Policymakers seem to face a trade-off when designing national trade and investment policies related to clean energy sectors.
