Decentralised / Off-grid Renewable Energy Systems / Devices

The dataset reports state-wise numbers and types of off-grid / decentralized renewable energy systems/devices installed in India.

About Dataset

This dataset captures details on off-grid and decentralized renewable energy systems/devices across India — including counts (or existence) of devices such as biogas plants, biomass gasifiers, small hydro / micro-hydro installations, solar PV home-systems or stand-alone systems, and other decentralized renewables for periods for which data was compiled. By aggregating data at the state (or UT) level, the dataset enables analysis of regional distribution of decentralized renewable energy adoption, helps identify energy-poor or under-served regions, supports policy and planning for rural electrification and clean energy access, and allows tracking progress of renewable energy deployment outside main grid infrastructure.

Purpose of Dataset

This Dataset Provides Information On Off-grid / Decentralized Renewable Energy Systems (E.g. Solar Home-systems, Bio-gas Plants, Biomass-gasifiers, Small Hydro, And Other Decentralized Energy Devices) Installed Across Indian States — Useful For Understanding Adoption Of Off-grid Renewable Energy, Evaluating Decentralised Energy Access, Planning Rural Electrification, And Studying Renewable Energy Penetration Outside The Main Grid.
