India claims 9th position in world for deploying solar thermal energy systems

Last two years have been significant for the Ministry of Non-Conventional Energy Sources (MNES) as many innovative measures were initiated and new schemes launched to accelerate utilisation and exploitation of the New and Renewable Energy Sources of Energy (NRSE).  As a result, the Renewable Energy Sector is increasingly assuming a greater role in providing grid power to the Nation as its total capacities reached about 8,000 MW and India attaining Fourth position in wind power in the world with more than 5,300 MW capacity from wind power alone.

India attains 2nd position in biogas plants, 7th position in Solar Photovoltaic Cell production and 9th position in Solar Thermal Systems.  Indian photovoltaic industry has exported 95 MW of solar cells and modules to European countries, USA, Australia and other countries in last 2 years.  There has been large deployment of renewable energy devices and systems to meet cooking, lighting, water heating, motive power and meeting captive power requirements in rural, urban, industrial and commercial sectors...
