ABSTRACT
This paper made a modest attempt to investigate the solar energy consumption in India and sustainable development. Energy demand is increasing day by day due to modernization and increasing population and it put pressure of the scarce natural resources and environment. It is very challenging to fulfill the energy needs of the people. Increasing energy demand is one of the important reasons for the environmental degradation by producing the electricity through the sources like coal, oil and natural gas which emits one-third of Global greenhouse gas emission. To mitigate the environmental impact of energy production, solar energy acted as an important source and as alternative to other form of energy. This paper uses the secondary data to analyze the solar energy consumption.
Key words: Solar energy, sustainable development, solar energy production, consumption.
