This scheme provides the following benefits:

  • The Indian Government initiated the construction of solar plants that can generate an aggregate of 28,250 MW of power.
  • The Government will subsidize 60% and provide a loan of 30% of the total cost. This leads our farmers to bear only 10% of the total cost to install solar plants and solar pumps.
  • As per the KUSUM Scheme details, our government will provide subsidies to install state-of-the-art solar pumps. They improve irrigation as they hold 720MV of capacity.
  • This scheme offers our farmers an opportunity of selling the extra power generated by the plants directly to our government.
  • This ensures the scope of increase in the income of our farmers.
  • A landholder in a rural area can get a stable source of income by utilizing barren and uncultivated land for solar plant implementation for 25 years.
  • The solar plants will be set up above a minimum height in cultivable lands. This way, our farmers will be able to continue with cultivation after installing the plants.
  • KUSUM Scheme ensures increasing use of renewable energy helps to mitigate pollution in farms and opens a gateway to eco-friendly cultivation
