To encourage participation of private sector and provide investment opportunities to set up solar power projects. To create a conducive environment for the growth of investors, entrepreneurs and start-ups. To leverage the inherent strengths of the state while developing new ones.
The National Solar Mission is a major initiative of the Government of India and State Governments to promote ecologically sustainable growth while addressing India’s energy security challenge. It also constitutes a major contribution by India to the global effort to meet the challenges of climate change.
Power sector investment in solar photovoltaic (PV) technology is projected to exceed USD 500 billion in 2024, surpassing all other generation sources combined. Though growth may moderate slightly in 2024 due to falling PV module prices, solar remains central to the power sector’s transformation.
Multi-national and national development banks have provided 95% and 38% of the total solar project costs in low and lower middle income countries respectively, compared with only 8% in high income countries. Total funds that are channeled into low income countries are still a fraction of those in other markets.
Nigeria, for example, has a number of banks keen to invest in solar projects, but the interest rates they can offer are reportedly above 25% due to the double-digit central bank interest rates. In addition, these loans have extremely short tenors (between 6 months and 3 years) which makes projects unviable.
Although development organizations including Overseas Private Investment Corp., IFC, the World Bank, the Inter-American Development Bank and KfW have financed solar projects in the country since 2009, they have been much less active since the end of 2015. Global commercial banks have provided most of the debt to solar projects since.
