Today solar photovoltaic rooftop for production of electricity has emerged as a potential green technology
to address climate change issues by reducing dependability on conventional fossil fuel based electricity. With a strong
commitment to increase the renewable sources based energy capacity around 170 GW by 2022, India has a target to
install around 100 GW of solar energy capacity. Among this around 40 GW would be the share of grid connected solar
PV rooftop. This review paper is about information on growth in solar energy, solar rooftop policy matters and
challenges in India. The current Indian goals, issues & challenges in achieving them and trends in further development
are discussed here.
