In India, solar manufacturers mainly use three types of encapsulants: EVA, POE, and newer TPO or hybrid co-extruded materials. EVA is the industry workhorse because it is affordable and offers good clarity, but it can yellow over time and is more vulnerable to moisture and PID, especially in hot and humid regions. POE has become popular for advanced modules like TOPCon and HJT since it provides stronger protection against moisture and PID, along with better long-term reliability, though it costs more and takes longer to laminate. Newer TPO and hybrid films try to offer the best of both worlds, combining EVA’s ease of processing with POE’s durability, but they are still developing and sometimes face supply or consistency issues. Overall, all these encapsulants serve the essential job of shielding solar cells from weather, UV light, and electrical stress, with manufacturers choosing based on climate needs, technology type, and cost-performance balance.

Under the PM Surya Ghar Scheme, there is a cap on the capacity of a solar plant that a residential household can install. In most states, the sanctioned load or household meter capacity determines the maximum permissible system size. The scheme also places a limit on the total subsidy that can be availed. For instance, if a household has already received a subsidy of Rs 78,000 for a 3 kW system, it cannot claim additional subsidy for future system expansion, even if such an expansion is permitted under state power regulatory rules.

No. The Approved List of Models and Manufacturers (ALMM) for solar cells, issued by MNRE, does not fully reflect the entire Indian solar cell manufacturing landscape. The list covers only those facilities that have applied for inclusion and undergone MNRE inspections. As a result, newly operational factories or manufacturers that have not applied for verification may be missing. For instance, in the first ALMM list for solar cells, several notable manufacturers were absent due to such procedural gaps.
