Study projects loss in India's solar power potential due to air pollution - Business Standard

Quick Summary:

The researchers from the Indian Institute of Technology (IIT), Delhi, found that northern, western and southern power grids -- where most solar parks are currently located -- will experience significant challenges in maintaining performance due to climate change.

India's capacity to generate solar power could fall by 600-800 gigawatt-hour before mid-century due to air pollution and climate change, a study has projected.

Further, generating solar power relies heavily on weather and climate, and is, therefore, vulnerable to the effects of climate change.
