The objectives of this guidelines are: To promote off-grid applications of solar energy (both SPV and Solar Thermal)
for meeting the targets set in the National Solar Mission for Phase-I; To create awareness and demonstrate effective and innovative use of Solar systems for individual/ community/ institutional applications; To encourage innovation in addressing market needs and promoting sustainable
business models; To create a paradigm shift needed for commoditization of off-grid solar applications; and To support consultancy services, seminars, symposia, training, awareness
