en.Wedoany.com Reported - Global sustainability consulting firm Sunkonnect has announced a major expansion of its distributed energy platform Sunsol Cleantech, targeting the deployment of over 2 gigawatts of solar capacity in India by 2030.

The expansion plan encompasses approximately 5,000 projects, including rooftop photovoltaics, captive power plants, open access, and utility-scale solar installations. This deployment scale will account for about 5% of India's national target of achieving 280 GW of solar capacity by the end of this decade.

India's renewable energy sector has grown rapidly in recent years, with non-fossil fuel sources accounting for over half of the country's total installed capacity as of April 2026. Solar power is a key driver of this transition, with installed capacity expanding from 2.8 GW in 2014 to approximately 150 GW currently.

According to the latest national roadmap, India aims to reach 280 GW of solar capacity by 2030. Sunsol Cleantech focuses on accelerating the adoption of distributed solar energy in both urban and rural markets, simplifying the deployment process for rooftop and ground-mounted solar installations through a one-stop service model for commercial, industrial, and residential users.

According to the company, the plan's advancement will leverage Sunkonnect's technical expertise and execution capabilities. Since 2019, the group has delivered over 5 GW of renewable energy projects across multiple Asian markets, including India, China, Vietnam, and Malaysia.

Sunkonnect's business capabilities encompass engineering, procurement, construction management, technical auditing, quality assurance, and asset optimization. The company stated that Sunsol customers will benefit from integrated lifecycle management systems and digital monitoring tools designed to enhance plant performance and operational reliability.

Company executives noted that the 2 GW expansion strategy aims to strengthen India's energy transition by improving access to distributed solar solutions while reducing electricity costs, lowering emissions, and alleviating pressure on the national grid.
