What are the potential impacts of the decreasing trend in solar radiation for electricity generation in India

Study warns of ‘decreasing trend’ in solar radiation for electricity in India.
  • Decreased solar radiation can result in reduced electricity generation from solar panels, affecting the power supply in India.
  • It may lead to lower efficiency of solar power plants, potentially increasing the cost of electricity production.
  • Energy security could be compromised as India heavily relies on solar energy to meet its growing power demand.
  • The decreasing trend in solar radiation may impact India's target of increasing renewable energy capacity to reduce carbon emissions and combat climate change.
  • It could also hinder the country's efforts to achieve energy independence and reduce its reliance on fossil fuels.
