1) Introduction

      India has one of the fastest-growing economies in the world, and as the population grows, so does the demand for energy. However, India is also one of the most polluted countries in the world, and the need for clean and renewable energy is becoming more critical than ever.
Solar energy has the potential to play a significant role in meeting the country’s energy needs while also reducing its carbon footprint. As a result, there has been a surge in solar business opportunities in India.

Policies and Incentives

•   National Solar Mission: The government has set a target to generate 500 GW of solar power by 2030.
•   Subsidies: The government provides subsidies for the installation of solar power systems.
•   Net Metering: The government allows consumers to sell excess solar power generated by their systems back to the grid.
•   Tax Incentives: The government provides tax incentives to businesses and individuals investing in solar energy.

Challenges in the Solar Business
