Key Objectives
- Deploy 100 GW grid-connected solar power by 2022 (revised to 500 GW RE by 2030)
- Reduce cost of solar power generation through long-term policy, large-scale deployment and R&D
- Achieve grid-parity of solar power with conventional power by 2030
- Create favourable conditions for solar manufacturing in India
Milestones & Achievements
Achieved 123.13 GW grid-connected solar capacity (Aug 2025) â exceeding original 100 GW target
Original target 20,000 MW revised to 100,000 MW (Jun 2015) â then achieved ahead of schedule
PM-KUSUM deployed 14 lakh standalone solar pumps de-dieselizing farm sector
48,337 MW integrated solar PV module manufacturing capacity under PLI
17 lakh direct jobs created under PM Suryaghar scheme; 38 lakh total RE jobs
