India’s solar sector faces rising module costs due to recent developments, including the imposition of anti-dumping duties on solar glass and China’s reduction in export rebates on solar modules, impacting project viability. These shifts underline the delicate balance between promoting local manufacturing, pursuing geopolitical strategies, and navigating the economic realities of global trade.
Companies that treat solar as a core part of their energy strategy, rather than a side initiative, often see these benefits play out with striking clarity. The investment case is strong.
