Our consulting assistance will be of specific value to any medium and large business keen on venturing into the solar energy sector in India – which are typically from sectors such as engineering & manufacturing, infrastructure, power & energy, metals & minerals, electrical & electronics, batteries and energy storage.
The Indian solar energy sectors (both solar power and solar thermal) have been witnessing furious growth in the past few years, and this growth appears set to continue in future. Such growth possibilities offer attractive business opportunities for a range of Indian businesses.
At the same time, challenges from global competition, falling margins and uncertain policy and regulatory regimes are making top management of many large industrial groups hesitant before betting big on solar.
Our consulting assistance, targeted at the top management of medium and large Indian companies keen on going solar, provides clarity, recommendations and other forms of tangible solutions that enable corporates to take appropriate decisions and take concrete steps in moving forward.
India’s solar energy sector, especially solar PV-based power generation, has seen tremendous growth since 2010, with a significant boost post-2015. As of June 2024, India's total solar power installed capacity stands at over 80 GW (80,000 MW), firmly establishing the country as a global leader in solar energy. With the target of achieving 500 GW by 2030, India continues to push the boundaries in renewable energy - with a current annual business opportunity worth Rs 52,500 crore (USD 7 billion).
Investing in India's solar energy sector offers substantial business opportunities backed by supportive government policies and strong market dynamics. Government initiatives such as the Production-Linked Incentive (PLI) scheme aim to boost domestic manufacturing capacity, enhancing investment prospects by allocating substantial funds to support high-efficiency solar PV modules. Additionally, the Solar Park Scheme, which aims to establish 50 solar parks with a cumulative capacity of about 38 GW by 2025-26, further stimulates investment opportunities.
At the same time, investing in India's solar power sector in 2024 faces significant challenges. Land acquisition issues and regulatory hurdles can delay projects by 12-24 months. Integrating large capacities of solar power into the grid requires substantial infrastructure upgrades. Financing remains tough, with project costs at Rs 3500 crore per GW. Ensuring local manufacturing quality and addressing environmental concerns are crucial for sustainable development.
Therefore, industries and businesses keen on investing in the Indian solar power segment face a mix of opportunities and challenges. What should a medium or large Indian business with a keen interest in this segment do? How should they strategize their entry into this intriguing sector?
This is where EAI, with its in-depth understanding of the solar power market and its dynamics, can be of immense help to your company. We can assist you in charting out an effective strategic solar energy business roadmap for your company.
EAI can assist you in assimilating all of these elements to provide your top management with a strategy that is optimised for your firm’s strengths, vision, and aspirations.
