Trophi - Supporting India’s ambitious targets for rooftop PV

India has seen tremendous growth in installation of solar PV systems. India is on track to reach its ambitious goals defined in the National Action Plan for Climate Change (NAPCC) and Jawaharlal Nehru National Solar Mission (JNNSM). However, the sector of grid-connected rooftop systems (GRTPV) lags behind its targeted 40GWp installed by 2022 with only 1.2GWp installed to date.
With "Trainings on rooftop photovoltaic systems in India - TROPHI" the German and Indian government enable the Renewables Academy (RENAC) to facilitate a sophisticated training programme in India. Renowned international and national experts and trainers will deliver high-quality trainings and workshops for key stakeholders. International best-practices combined with Indian expertise will pave the way for improving conditions for more GRTPV installations.
