3. Transforming energy crisis to market opportunity
We estimate the total demand for solar energy will bypass 4000MW by next
year creating a huge market of about USD 25 Billion. While a significant
portion of this would be through the public sector, off-grid and urban rooftop
would also have decent share (nearly USD 4B)
Power Deficient Consumer:
High energy poverty with
supply falling short majorly
Solar Strong Producer:
One of the highest solar energy
availability in the world
