## ANSWER

## THE MINISTER OF  STATE  FOR NEW & RENEWABLE ENERGY AND POWER

## (SHRI SHRIPAD YESSO NAIK)

- (a) The Ministry of  New  and  Renewable Energy (MNRE)  has  been  implementing various schemes/programmes  to  promote  development  and  deployment  of  renewable  energy  in  the  country including in the State of Jharkhand such as scheme for Development of Solar Parks and Ultra-mega Solar Power Projects, Pradhan Mantri Surya Ghar Muft Bijli Yojana (PM-SGMBY), Pradhan Mantri Kisan Urja Suraksha evam Utthaan Mahabhiyan (PM-KUSUM), etc.

For installation of onshore wind power projects, at present, there is no scheme for providing financial subsidy/ incentive.  The wind power projects are being installed by private companies/ public sector enterprises based on techno-economic assessment.

Further,  as  per  the  information  received  from  Jharkhand  Renewable  Energy  Development  Agency (JREDA), Jharkhand Government is also working on development of many projects under the Jharkhand State Solar Policy-2022.

- (b)  to  (d)  MNRE  has  sanctioned  3  Solar  Parks  in  the  State  of  Jharkhand  under  the  scheme  for 'Development of Solar Parks and Ultra -Mega Solar Power Projects.' The details of the se Solar parks are as given below:

| Name of Solar Park and location                                                                                         |   Capacity sanctioned (in MW) |
|-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|-------------------------------|
| Floating Solar Park by Solar Energy Corporation of India (SECI) in Getalsud dam, Ranchi district, Jharkhand             |                           100 |
| Floating Solar Park Ph-I, by M/s Green Valley Renewable Energy Limited; JVC of DVC & NTPC RELin Tilaiya Dam(Jharkhand)& |                           755 |

| Panchet Dam (in Jharkhand & partly in West Bengal)                  |     |
|---------------------------------------------------------------------|-----|
| Floating Solar Park Ph-II by DVC in Maithon dam, Dhanbad, Jharkhand | 234 |

PM-SGMBY is being implemented across all the rural and urban areas in all States/ UTs.   In the State of  Jharkhand,  9884  applications  have  been  submitted  on  the  National  Portal  of  the  scheme  as  on 24.07.2025 and 688 households have been covered with installation of rooftop solar systems.

Similarly, PM-KUSUM scheme is also being implemented across all States/ UTs. Under the scheme, capacities are allocated based on demand received from the States/UTs. On the basis of demand received from Jharkhand, 52,985 solar agriculture pumps under Component-B of the Scheme have been allocated to the State of Jharkhand.  Out of these, 35,459 pumps have been reported installed as on 30.06.2025.

Details  of  incentives  being  provided  by  MNRE  as  Central  Financial  Assistance  (CFA)  for  the implementation of major ongoing renewable energy schemes/programmes in the country including the State of Jharkhand are given at Annexure.
