JAWAHARLAL NEHRU NATIONAL SOLAR MISSION
1. What is Jawaharlal Nehru National Solar Mission?
The National Solar Mission is a major initiative of the Government of India and
State Governments to promote ecologically sustainable gr owth while addressing
India’s energy security challenge. It will also constitute a major contribution by
India to the global effort to meet the challenges of climate change. It is one of the
eight missions envisaged under National Action Plan on Climate Change.
The National Action Plan on Climate Change points out: “India is a tropical
countr y, where sunshine is available for longer hour s per day and in great
intensity. Solar energy, therefore, has gr eat potential as future energy source. It
also has the advantage of permitting the decentralized distribution of energy,
there by empowering people at the grassroots level”.
Based on this vision a National Solar Mission is launched under the brand name
“Solar India” .
2. What are the Solar Mission targets?
• To create an enabling policy framework for the deployment of 20,000 MW of solar

Power by 2022.
• To ramp up capacity of grid-connected solar power generation to 1000 MW within
Three years – by 2013; an additional 3000 MW by 2017 through the mandatory use
Of the renewable purchase obligation by utilities backed with a preferential tariff.
This capacity can be more than doubled – reaching 10,000MW installed power by
2017 or mor e, based on the enhanced and enabled international finance and
Technology transfer. The ambitious target for 2022 of 20,000 MW or more, will be
Dependent on the ‘learning’ of the first two phases, which if successful, could
Lead to conditions of grid-competitive solar power. The transition could be
Appropriately up scaled, based on availability of international finance and
Technology.
• To create favorable conditions for solar manufacturing capability, particularly
Solar thermal for indigenous production and mar ket leadership.
• To promote programmer s for off grid applications, reaching 1000 MW by 2017 and
2000 MW by 2022.
• To achieve 15 million sq. meters solar thermal collector area by 2017 and 20
Million by 2022.
• To deploy 20 million solar lighting systems for rural areas by 2022.Page 2
3. What is t he capacity of solar power projects proposed to be promoted in the

first?
Phase?
A target of 1000 MW is fixed to promote grid connected Solar Power projects,
Connected to the Grid sub-stations at voltage levels of 33 KV and above.
Further, it is propose to promote 100 MW capacities Rooftop SPV and Small Power
Plants, connected to the Distribution sub-stations at voltage levels of below 33
KV.
The above capacities are proposed to be implemented under 1st Phase before year
2013.
4. What are the different technologies proposed to be promoted?
Both Solar Photovoltaic and Solar thermal Power technologies will be encouraged
Under the Mission. Page 3
5. What are the different schemes launched under JNNSM?
Under the JNNSM, there are basically two schemes, namely (I) Grid connected
Solar projects of capacity 5 MW and above connected to Grid Sub-station at 33 KV
And above voltage and (ii) Rooftop SPV and Small Power Plants of 1-3 MW
Capacity connected to Distribution sub-stations at below 33 KV voltages. The solar
Power capacities proposed under these schemes are,
(I)
Grid connected solar projects of capacity 5 MW and above
- 500 MW capacity of solar PV
- 500 MW capacity of Solar Thermal
(ii)
Rooftop SPV and Small Power Plants of 1-3 MW capacity
- 80 MW for the entire country with a
Ceiling of 20 MW for each state.
6. Is there any ceiling for individual developer f or the solar power capacity under
the
Above schemes?
Yes. Under Grid connected solar projects of capacity 5 MW and above scheme,
The minimum project capacity shall be 5 MW and 20 MW in case of Solar
Photovoltaic Projects and Thermal Projects respectively. The maximum capacity
Would be 25 MW and 100 MW respectively.
7. What are the facilities being provided by the State Government?
(I)
The State Level agencies will provide necessary support to facilitate
Access to sites, water allocation for solar thermal projects, land acquisition
For the projects, connectivity to grid sub-station/distribution sub-station
Fr om State Transmission Utility (STU/DISCOMs).
(ii)
The Power generated from Solar Power Projects will be pur chased by
DISCOMs as per the Solar Power Pur chase Obligation to be consented by
The AP Electricity Regulatory Commission (APERC).
8. What is t he tariff applicable for solar power projects?

The tariff for solar power projects will be as per the regulations of Central
Electricity Regulatory Commission ( CERC). The tariff applicable for the solar PV
Projects likely to be commissioned before 2011-12 is Rs.17.91/unit and in case of
Solar thermal power projects likely to be commissioned before 2012-13 is
Rs.15.31/unit. The tariff will be applicable for a period of 25 years. Page 4
9. How to make proposals f or setting up solar power projects?

The intended project developers shall submit the proposals in the prescribed
Format to with a promotional fee of Rs.25,000 per MW. The format for
Submission of pr oposals and documents to be enclosed is annexed.
Once the clearances are obtained at the state level, the project developers can
Participate in the Expression of Interest (EOI) being invited by NTPC Vidyut
Vyapar Nigam Limited (NVVN) in respect of Grid connected solar projects of
Capacity 5 MW and above connected to Grid Sub-station at 33 KV and above
Voltage and can register with Indian Renewable Energy Development Agency
(IREDA) in respect of Rooftop SPV and small Power Plants of 1-3 MW capacity
Connected to Distribution sub- stations at below 33 KV voltages.
