Abstract:
The PV (photovoltaic) technology programme in India has undergone several changes in terms of technology, approaches to promotion, financial arrangements, and so on. Numerous training programmes have been conducted in the past to equip extension agents, workers of NGOs (non-governmental organizations), and other stakeholders with advancements made in the PV sector. As part of such efforts, numerous documents have also come out as informational packages, dealing with specific issues in the sector — technical, financial, operational and maintenance, and so on. However, there is a lack of a comprehensive document that provides all information related to applications of PV technology, approaches to dissemination, financial arrangements, and institutional and social factors in technology acceptance, beneficial to implementing agencies, financial organizations, and other stakeholders in the PV sector in India.
