Solar installations at commercial and industrial buildings have soared in recent years, with businesses realizing that they’re smart investments. Part of the reason is that solar installations produce clean, locally generated energy — a must-have in a time of ambitious sustainability goals. But not all solar installations are alike. According to a 2021 study by Berkeley Lab, 98 ...
The Indian government had an initial target of 20 GW capacity for 2022, which was achieved four years ahead of schedule. In 2015 the target was raised to 100 GW of solar capacity (including 40 GW from rooftop solar) by 2022. The ambitious target has brought along with it the need to review the existing energy policies in order to satisfy all the stakeholders like prosumers, DISCOMs, energy ...
