    The MNRE launched the KUSUM scheme in 2019 to promote solar energy in the agriculture sector. The scheme aims to install 25750 MW of solar capacity by 2022 to increase farmer incomes, provide reliable irrigation, and reduce reliance on diesel. It has three components: 1) grid-connected solar projects on barren land, 2) standalone solar pumps, and 3) solarizing existing grid-connected pumps. The scheme aims to install 10000 MW, 17.5 lakh pumps, and solarize 10 lakh pumps respectively. Current implementation faces challenges around funding, land allocation, and documentation. Lessons include modifying component A due to low generator profits, boosting component B to support small vendors

    Component C
     Solarization of 10 lakhs grid connected

    Approach and Implementation

    Installation of grid-

    Documentation
    Are the Objectives met?
    Conclusion and Learnings
    Component A needs some slight modifications
    as generators do not make up sufficient profits
    to cover their costings

    Stakeholder’s Engagement
    Component B of the KUSUM Scheme can boost
    to small scale vendors who make solar based
    pumps
    De-carbonization of
    Agriculture sector
    Component B and C do not take into the
    account the exploitation of ground water
    reserves Stepping Stone for
    implementation of future
    Technologies
    To boost adoption of solar energy, tariff
    procurement can be enhanced to encourage
    solar power instalments
