The MNRE has launched Phase III of the Off-grid and Decentralized Solar Photovoltaic [PV] Applications Programme for 2018-19 and 2019-20. For 2018-19, the project development target has been set at 50 MW with a proposed outlay of Rs 2,760 million. For 2019-20, this target will increase to 68 MW with a proposed outlay of Rs 3,800 million.
