About Solar Energy

Solar power is one of the important renewable energy sources. The major advantages of solar power are:

• ●Abundant and Sustainable source of Energy
• ● Zero fuel cost.
• ● Zero emission (Pollution free) and environmentally benign.
• ● Low gestation period.
• ● Possibility to install from a few megawatts to hundreds of Megawatts.
• ● Existing Residential Townships shall be encouraged to develop charging stations lots.
• ● Charging/ swapping station will be provided in Hyderabad for 2-wheeler and 3 wheelers
• ● HMR stations and TSRTC Bus depots (across the state) shall provide reserved parking and charging points for two-wheelers in their parking zones to encourage EVs for last mile commute.
• ● Government shall develop Nighttime community parking with charging facility in PPP mode for e- Autos, Shared mobility taxis and public transport vehicles within Industrial zones.
• ● A battery disposal infrastructure model shall be created to facilitate deployment of used EV batteries.

GoI have recognized the importance of Solar Energy as one of the future sources of energy and National Jawaharlal Nehru National Solar Mission was launched on 14.11.2009, under the brand name “Solar India” with an objective to maximize generation of power from solar energy. Further Hon’ble Prime Minister has announced 450GW from Renewables and 100 GW alone from solar by 2022 and extended the capacity from 100 GW to 450 GW by 2030.

Advantages For Installation of Solar Programme:

• ●Availability of about 300 sunny days in a year with solar insolation of 5.5 to 6 kWh/m².
• ● Availability of Solar module manufacturing industries in the State - in FABCITY, Hyderabad.
• ● Availability of widespread electric grid network, which facilitate Projects with easy connectivity.
• ● Growing energy demand in the State.
• ● Promotion of Solar Power Generation will help Telangana state to achieve energy security and create direct and indirect employment potential.
