Government National action plan and policy focus for sustainable development of rural areas

Training and awareness programs in remote areas Providing soft loans/incentives/subsidies for solar systems

installed in rural areas Mandating PV installations for hot water and process heat in

Residential and Industrial sector Setting up some demonstration projects/systems to display

its benefits Deploy support schemes in collaboration with International

development organizations like GEF, WB, ADB, UNDP, etc. R & D facilities for efficient and economic technology
