Session 01: Rajasthan RE Policy 2023 — From 125 GW Target to On-Ground Reality

15:30 - 16:20

Context:
Rajasthan has set India's most ambitious state-level solar target — 125 GW by 2030 — but the gap between policy and execution is stark. Land acquisition delays, grid evacuation bottlenecks, and DISCOM financial stress remain the top barriers. This session brings policymakers, developers, and EPCs together to examine what must change.

Key Discussion Points:

  • Status of Rajasthan RE Policy 2023 — targets, achievements, and critical gaps
  • RRECL tender pipeline 2025–27 — solar parks, hybrid, wind, and distributed generation
  • Land acquisition & land bank — Rajasthan's wasteland policy and developer experience
  • Grid evacuation — RRVPNL transmission capacity, DFC substations, and timelines
  • PM Surya Ghar Muft Bijli Yojana in Rajasthan — implementation and vendor ecosystem
  • Rajasthan Open Access Regulations — C&I solar under 100 kW threshold
