India Energy Stack to Transform Distributed Renewable Energy Initiatives
SOLAR ENERGY
The India Energy Stack (IES) aims to enhance distributed renewable energy (DRE) in India, particularly through programs like PM Surya Ghar and PM-KUSUM. Joint Secretary JVN Subramanyam highlighted a significant increase in DRE capacity, with 18 GW added in the last 15 months, supported by $9 billion for rooftop solarization and $4 billion for agricultural solar pumps. The IES, integrating AI, is expected to improve energy governance and efficiency, assisting prosumers in monitoring their energy generation and optimizing distribution systems.
