## Details of the major Renewable Energy Schemes / Programmes

-  Scheme for Development of solar parks and Ultra-mega Solar Power Projects with a target of setting up 40,000 MW capacity. Under the scheme, the infrastructure such as land, roads, transmission system (internal and external), pooling stations, water feasibility is developed with all statutory clearances/ approvals.
-  Central Public Sector Undertaking (CPSU) Scheme Phase-II (Government Producer Scheme) for setting  up  12,000  MW  grid-connected  Solar  Photovoltaic  (PV)  Power  Projects  by  Government Producers  with  Viability  Gap  Funding  (VGF)  support,  for  self-use  or  use  by  Government/ Government entities, either directly or through Distribution Companies (DISCOMS).
-  Production Linked Incentive scheme 'National Programme on High Efficiency Solar PV Modules' for  achieving  manufacturing  capacity  of  Giga  Watt  (GW)  scale  in  High  Efficiency  Solar  PV modules.
-  PM-KUSUM Scheme to promote small Grid Connected Solar Energy Power Plants, stand-alone solar powered agricultural pumps and solarisation of existing grid connected agricultural pumps. The scheme is not only beneficial to the farmers but also States and DISCOMs. States will save on subsidy being provided for electricity to agriculture consumers and DISCOMs get cheaper solar power at tail end saving transmission and distribution losses.
-  Rooftop  Solar  Programme  Phase  II  for  grid  connected  solar  rooftop  power  plants.  Under  this Programme,  subsidy  is  provided  for  residential  sector  and  performance  linked  incentives  to DISCOMs for achieving capacity addition in rooftop solar above baseline.
-  Green Energy Corridors (GEC) : to  create  intra-state  transmission  system  for renewable energy projects. Central Financial Assistance (CFA) is provided to set up transmission infrastructure for evacuation  of  Power  from  Renewable  Energy  projects  in  total  ten  States  (considering  both  the phases of GEC).
