27. Pilot Solar Thermal Power Projects • Four pilot projects on solar thermal technologies are proposed viz.

28. Off-grid Applications • JNNSM has focus on promoting off-grid systems, which still require interventions to bring down costs. • Scheme is designed to provide an enabling framework and support for entrepreneurs to develop markets. • The scheme covers • Off-grid and decentralized systems, including hybrid systems to meet/ supplement lighting, electricity/power, heating and cooling energy requirements • Solar PV systems / applications (maximum capacity 100 kWp per site) • Mini-grids for rural electrification (maximum capacity 250 kW per site) • All applications of solar energy to produce heat including steam generation. • Subsidy @30% of the cost (subject to benchmarks) is provided; higher subsidy is provided in special category states including north eastern states.

29. Solar PV for Rural Applications • Village street lighting • Home & community lighting • Water pumping systems  • Village power plants • Vaccine refrigeration • TV sets • Radio receivers • Solar lanterns

30. Solar PV for Industrial Applications • Unmanned Off-shore Oil Wellhead Platforms • Battery Charging Stations • VLPTs For Doordarshan • Power Plants • Defence Applications • Railways • Telecommunication
