Abstract
Solar energy offers enormous potential for a tropical country like India where
around 45% of households, mainly rural ones, do not have access to
electricity, says a new research report "Indian Solar Energy Market Outlook
2012" from a leading research company RNCOS.
India receives solar energy equivalent to more than 5,000 Trillion kWh per
year, which is far more than its total annual energy consumption. The
country' s geographical location, large population and government support are
also assisting it to become one of the most rapidly emerging solar energy
markets in the world. Consequently, the country is becoming a favorite
investment destination for both local as well as global players.
Demand for solar products has been rising rapidly over the recent years,
especially in rural areas, and is expected to continue growing substantially
during our forecast period (2009-2012). The total number of solar lanterns in
India is projected to grow at a CAGR of about 40% between 2009 and 2012.
"Indian Solar Energy Market Outlook 2012" provides a rational analysis and
extensive research on the solar power industry in India. It thoroughly
examines the current industry trends which are adding to the growth of solar
power market of the country. The report highlights the emerging segments of
solar power industry and their market potential to serve the enormous
