5.85%！The Indian photovoltaic power generation reached a new high proportion in 2022

Dec 13, 2022

PV's share of Indian total power generation reached a new high proportion of 5.85% in the first half of FY2022(from April to September),according to the research data released by Indian Central Electricity Authority in October this year.This makes PV systems be the main source of renewable energy in India,second only to large-scale hydropower felicities. After generating more electricity from photovoltaic systems than from wind turbines last year,the photovoltaic systems electricity generation is also more than the wind turbines this year.

In the view of photovoltaic generation,it increased rapidly in the first half of FY2022.During April 22th and September 22th,the total generation of PV systems was 48,013.99 million units (MU) .And in the first six months of FY2021,Indian PV systems total generation was 34151.63 million units (MU).

Although the total power generation of PV system in the second half of the first half of FY2022(July to September)was lower than the first half(April to June).After the PV capacity reduced 15% in July,the PV power generation is still continue increasing.India generated 7428.25 million units (MU) of PV capacity in August this year，compared to 8207.72 million units (MU) in September.

A comparison of photovoltaic capacity between August and September this year shows a 10 percent month-on-month increase. A comparison of PV capacity between September 2022 and September 2021 shows a 51% year-on-year increase. Although India still has a long way to go to achieve its goal of adopting 500GW of renewable energy by 2030, the first half of FY2022 data shows that PV capacity is very substantial.

According to the public data,till October 2022,India had a total installed renewable energy capacity of 119,092.59MW and total renewable energy generation capacity of 14,238.57 million units (MU).This includes almost all the renewable energy power generation(wind power,PV power,Biomass, small hydropower and other energy sources)

India installed capacity and power generation data of PV systems in FY2021 and FY2022 are shown below:

If you compare India's renewable power generation in October 2022 and October 2021, you can see an increase of 126.57% year on year and a 140.17% increase in photovoltaic power generation.

During April 22th and October 22th in 2022,Indian total renewable energy generation capacity was 124063.88 million units (MU).What’s more,during April 21th and October 21th in 2021,Indian total renewable power generation capacity was 104868.02 million units (MU), it’s seen that a growth of 118.3% year on year, the PV generation capacity also increased by140.57%.
