Executive Summary & Key Takeaways

**Executive Summary** This document is a response to Lok Sabha Unstarred Question No. 1816, answered on December 10, 2025, regarding solar energy projects in Rajasthan. It provides details of ongoing and proposed solar energy projects in Rajasthan, the promotion of decentralized solar installations, and the prioritization of agro-voltaic models and solar irrigation units. The response includes information on various schemes and installations as of specific dates in 2025, along with annexures detailing registered projects and operational schemes. **Key Points / Main Content** * **Solar Energy Projects in Rajasthan:** * Details of solar energy projects registered with the Rajasthan Renewable Energy Corporation Limited (RRECL) under bidding and captive solar categories are provided in Annexures I and II, respectively. * **Promotion of Decentralized Solar Installations:** * The Government is implementing schemes like PM Surya Ghar: Muft Bijli Yojna (PMSG:MBY), Pradhan Mantri Kisan Urja Suraksha evam Utthaan Mahabhiyan (PM-KUSUM), and a New Solar Power Scheme for Tribal and PVTG Habitations/Villages to promote decentralized solar installations in the country, including Rajasthan. Details of these schemes are in Annexure-III. * As of December 4, 2025, 1,06,579 Solar Rooftop systems have been installed in Rajasthan under the PMSG:MBY, with 753 in Tonk and 733 in Sawai Madhopur districts. * PM KUSUM scheme is being implemented in all districts of the country including Tonk and Sawai Madhopur districts of Rajasthan. * Under the PM Kusum scheme, the installations in Tonk and Sawai Madhopur, as on November 30, 2025, are as follows: * Tonk: 0.5 MW capacity, 5531 pumps under component B, and 2685 pumps under component C. * Sawai Madhopur: 3 MW capacity, 2427 pumps under component B, and 275 pumps under component C. * **Prioritization of Agro-Voltaic Models and Solar Irrigation:** * Component-A of the PM KUSUM scheme allows for setting up decentralized ground-mounted/stilt-mounted (agrivoltaics) solar plants by farmers. * PM-KUSUM guidelines address over-exploitation of groundwater by solar pumps; new pumps are not permitted in over-exploited areas.

PM Surya Ghar Muft Bijli Yojana (PMSG: MBY): The Ministry of New & Renewable Energy is implementing this scheme across the country since February 2024. The Scheme targets to achieve rooftop solar installations in one crore households in the residential sector by FY 2026-27 with an outlay of Rs 75,021 crore. 2. Pradhan Mantri Kisan Urja Suraksha evam Utthaan Mahabhiyan (PM-KUSUM): The PM-KUSUM Scheme was launched by the Government in March, 2019 to provide financial support to the farmers for installation of standalone solar pumps and solarization of existing grid-connected agriculture pumps, and to provide the farmers an opportunity to become solar entrepreneurs by installing solar power plants on their barren/fallow/agriculture land. The Scheme consists of three components: • Component ‘A’: Setting up of 10,000 MW of Decentralized Ground / Stilt Mounted Grid Connected Solar or other Renewable Energy based Power Plants by the farmers on their land. Solar power plants in stilt fashion are also known as Agrivoltaics; • Component ‘B’: Installation of 14 lakh standalone off-grid solar agriculture pumps; and • Component ‘C’: Solarization of 35 lakh existing grid-connected agriculture pumps including Feeder Level Solarization (FLS). All three components combined; the scheme aims to add a solar capacity of 34.8 GW with total central financial of Rs. 34,422 crore. 3. New Solar Power Scheme (for Tribal and PVTG Habitations/Villages) under Pradhan Mantri Janjati Adivasi Nyaya Maha Abhiyan (PM JANMAN) and Dharti Aabha Janjatiya Gram Utkarsh Abhiyan (DA JGUA): The scheme aims to provide electricity to households, multi-purpose centres and public institutions in Tribal and PVTG areas by provision of off-grid solar systems. The off-grid solar systems are provided only where electricity supply through grid is not techno-economically feasible.
