Over the next two fiscals, India aims to add 100 GW of solar capacity, 66 GW of which would be greenfield, as part of its goal of achieving 175 GW renewable energy (RE) capacity by December 2022. This, when only ~22 GW were added in the past three fiscals. And now, there is also the Covid-19 pandemic to contend with, which has disrupted execution of ~28 GW of under-construction solar capacity. About 5-6 GW of these capacities may face delays owing to labour and modules shortage.
