100 GW Challenge by 2022

• India’s solar potential estimated at 748GW

• JNNSM target increased from 20GW to 100GW

• 60 to 70 GW will be from utility scale power projects.30 to 40 GW will be from Rooftop Solar plants

• IEA’s Solar PV Roadmap 2014 estimates deployment of 142GW by 2030 and 575GW by 2050 for India!

IEA Solar Roadmap 2014

IEA’s analysis is based on a bottom-up TIMES* model that uses cost optimization to identify least-cost mixes of energy technologies and fuels to meet energy demand, given availability constraints of natural resources.

* The Integrated MARKAL (Market Allocation)- EFOM (energy flow optimization model) System.
