PM Modi discusses India’s RE landscape with US-based solar manufacturer
Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Thursday discussed India’s renewable energy landscape with the head of a prominent US-based manufacturer of solar panels.
India currently has the world’s fastest-growing solar energy programme and has expanded access to clean cooking fuel to cover over 80 million households, making it one of the largest clean energy drives globally.
“Powering India’s Solar Potential! PM @narendramodi discusses India’s renewable energy landscape with Mark Widmar, CEO @FirstSolar,” the Ministry of External Affairs tweeted.
Widmar shared plans to use the Indian government’s ambitious production linked incentive (PLI) scheme for manufacturing solar power equipment with unique thin-film technology and integrating India into global supply chains, the ministry said further.
