Sunkonnect's distributed energy platform Sunsol Cleantech plans to support the deployment of more than 2 GW of solar capacity across India by 2030 through 5,000 rooftop, captive, open-access and utility-scale projects, the company said.

The initiative is aimed at contributing about 5 percent of India's target of achieving 280 GW of installed solar capacity by the end of the decade, as the country accelerates its transition to clean energy.

India's solar sector has expanded rapidly over the past decade, with installed solar capacity increasing from 2.8 GW in 2014 to around 150 GW, while non-fossil fuel sources now account for more than half of the country's installed power generation capacity, according to the company.

Sunsol said it will focus on distributed solar deployment for commercial, industrial and residential consumers through a single-window platform offering rooftop and ground-mounted installations across urban and rural markets.

"At Sunsol, our goal is to be a catalyst in India's clean energy transformation by supporting more than 2 GW of solar deployment by 2030," said Nitish Kumar, Managing Director of Sunsol Cleantech.

"This is about more than just numbers. It's about strengthening India's energy security, affordability and sustainability while ensuring every project delivers high standards of quality, transparency and performance," added Kumar

Sunsol is backed by Singapore-headquartered sustainability consulting firm Sunkonnect, which said it has completed more than 5 GW of renewable energy projects since 2019 in partnership with over 20 companies across India, China, Vietnam and Malaysia.

The company said its team of more than 200 professionals provides services including engineering design, technical audits, project management, quality assurance and asset optimisation across sectors such as solar energy, green hydrogen, energy storage, waste-to-energy and electric mobility.

Sunsol said its planned projects will combine engineering, procurement and construction (EPC) capabilities with digital monitoring and lifecycle management tools to improve plant performance, while helping customers reduce electricity costs, lower carbon emissions, and enhance grid resilience.
