Government’s move to boost solar industry garners mixed reactions
BENGALURU: The Union Cabinet’s decision to include ‘high efficiency solar photovoltaic modules’ among the sectors covered by its production linked incentive (PLI) scheme has drawn mixed responses from the industry. While some greatly welcomed the decision, others felt the amount allocated was too small.
As part of its Make in India drive, the cabinet on Wednesday had approved an additional Rs 4,500 crore for the ministry of new and renewable energy (MNRE) to boost manufacturing of such modules.
