India aims to be generating 20 GW of solar energy by 2022. CSP Today says: “The opportunity this creates for the CSP industry is so vast it’s difficult to paint the picture of just how much the industry is set to grow and develop in India and beyond.”

The New Solar Mission has set forward a three-stage approach to hitting the 2022 target. The first stage will comprise 1.1 GW of grid connected power and up to 200 MW of non-grid capacity by 2013.
